Hercules Urbanico Compact 8

If you are looking for a manoeuvrable and practical electric bike for city use, the Hercules Urbanico Compact 8 is an ideal solution for you! Thank to its compact design with 24 inch wheels, you can move effortlessly through busy traffic and park the bike easily in tight spaces. This compact e-bike combines a stylish look with a surprisingly high level of comfort.

Drive unit and frame
Power is provided by the Bafang H600 rear-wheel motor, which, with a torque of 30 Nm, offers smooth and natural pedal assist up to 25 km per hour. The unisex aluminium frame features a clever geometry that ensures that anyone between 160 and 190 cm tall can find a comfortable riding position. The 360 Wh battery is neatly concealed low within the frame and offers a range of up to 80 km, which is more than enough for daily journeys to work or the supermarket.

Shifting and braking
For gear changes, the Hercules Urbanico Compact e-bike uses an 8-speed Shimano Acera derailleur. Add the 11-45T cassette, and you have a wide range of gears at your disposal, so you can always find the right one when facing a headwind or climbing a viaduct. Since safety is, of course, the top priority, the bike is fitted with Tektro hydraulic disc brakes, which provide consistent and reliable stopping power in all weather conditions, so you can ride with confidence knowing that you will always come to a safe stop, even in heavy rainfall.

Finish and accessories
The rest of the Urbanico’s features are designed for everyday convenience. The wide Schwalbe Big Ben tyres effectively dampen shocks from uneven road surfaces and offer excellent grip on various surfaces. Thanks to the Monkey Load luggage rack, you can easily add accessories for carrying luggage. The FS-50 front light, with a light output of 50 lux, and the bright rear light ensure you are clearly visible to other road users in the dark.
