Why the Model S?
| Feature | Benefits |
|---|---|
| Toray carbon-fibre folding frame | Light enough to shoulder up the Adelaide Railway Station concourse; won’t rust after salty Glenelg rides. |
| 250 W high-torque rear hub (350 W upgrade) | Legal 25 km/h assist on shared paths—but extra grunt available for Windy Point if you need it. |
| Removable seat-post battery (36 V × 6.7 Ah / 10.5 Ah option) | Charge at the office like a laptop; up to 65 km range covers a return cruise to Port Noarlunga. |
| 9-speed Shimano/Microshift drivetrain | Keep spinning smoothly up the Mount Osmond switchbacks, motor on or off. |
| Tektro HD-E350 hydraulic discs | Confident stopping on the slick pavers of Rundle Mall after a summer shower. |
| 20 ″ × 2.0 ″ Schwalbe Big Apple tyres | Balloon cushioning tames the brickwork along Port Adelaide’s waterfront. |
| USB-A charging + Bluetooth LED display | Top up your phone or lights while tracking assist levels on your handlebars. |
