DJI's Amflow e-bikes are available to order in the US, but they don't come cheap

<p>DJI's Amflow electric mountain bikes <a data-i13n="cpos:1;pos:1" href="https://www.amflowbikes.com/pl-carbon?from=site-nav">are now available to buy in the US[/url], one full year after they made <a data-i13n="cpos:2;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/dji-further-diversifies-from-drones-with-the-avinox-e-bike-drive-system-070043218.html">their way to European customers[/url]. These bikes include the company's proprietary and impressive Avinox drive system, which is built around a 1000W motor capable of producing 120Nm of max torque.</p>
<p>This system is also light and compact, allowing for efficiently-designed bikes like the Amflow line. The Amflow PL e-bike weighs just over 40 pounds and includes a four-bar linkage structure, a rear shock co-tuned with FOX and an SRAM rear derailleur. The specs fluctuate depending on if you choose the standard model or the Pro.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Avinox system uses GaN 3x fast-charging tech, so the batteries on these bikes can go from empty to 75 percent in around 90 minutes. The system also integrates with a full-color touchscreen for control over the assist modes and to display pertinent information. Like most modern e-bikes, this system can connect to a smartphone for even more data.</p>
<p>These bikes have the usual assortment of riding assist modes, but the Auto mode uses &quot;multi-sensor fusion&quot; to continuously adjust the assistance level based on real-world riding resistance. The powerful motor of the Amflow PL is great for standard riding, but excels in off-road areas.</p>

<p>Now onto the bad news, and boy is it bad. The cheapest configuration of the Amflow PL is $7,500 and prices shoot up to $10,200 for the Pro model. Luckily, curious consumers can <a data-i13n="cpos:3;pos:1" href="https://www.amflowbikes.com/test-ride">book a test ride[/url] in many locations. DJI has been licensing the Avinox drive system to other e-bike manufacturers, so maybe we'll get more budget-friendly offerings in the future. As of this writing, 16 international brands have announced <a data-i13n="cpos:4;pos:1" href="https://www.bike-eu.com/50318/avinox-decoupling-from-dji-name-as-16-brands-now-specifying">they are building bikes[/url] built around the system.</p>
<p>Don't worry. This foray into e-bikes shouldn't cut into DJI's drone-making operation. It recently released the Mavic 4 Pro, <a data-i13n="cpos:5;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/cameras/dji-mavic-4-pro-review-a-new-standard-for-consumer-drones-120006235.html">which we absolutely loved[/url].</p>This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/transportation/djis-amflow-e-bikes-are-available-to-order-in-the-us-but-they-dont-come-cheap-174538774.html?src=rss
