Manufactured in Quebec, Canada, the Bionx (pronounced by-on-ex) electric bike motor conversion kits are reliable, lightweight and offer a range of up to 60 miles to a charge. The standard Bionx system includes a control console, a battery and a spoked motor wheel. The Bionx system can be installed on most bicycles by replacing the rear wheel with the Bionx motor-wheel.

Bionx is ideal for riders that want to ride longer and keep up with the pack or those that want help up hills and against the wind. Four assistance levels amplify the cyclist’effort by 25%, 50%, 100% or 300%, allowing the cyclist to ride faster and further.

Magnetic Field Drive Technology
The Bionx motor is a high performance direct drive, grearless and brushless hub motor. Equipped with magnetic field drive technology, the external magnets turn whereas the stator is stationary. No friction inside the Bionx motor means no wear on internal parts resulting in a motor that will last for years. Using an on-board micro-processor, the Bionx motor is measuring your thrusting power (through chain torque) and even compensates for your weakest leg insuring a smooth progression while accellerating.

Regenerative Anti-Lock Braking
Bionx offers four levels of power braking regeneration. In addition to 4 generative modes (G button on console) and regenerative braking also activates when the rear handbrake is used. When in use, the Generation mode recharges the battery but also makes it harder to pedal so its often used when going downhill. Please note that the generative mode does not replace the existing brakes, but considerably increases braking quality especially on extended downhill runs and steep, off-road surfaces.

Command Console Mounted on your bicycle's handlebars, the Bionx console is equipped with a two-mode microprocessor that provides both assistance and generation modes. Other features include a multifunction odometer, battery gauge and even a programmable alarm that goes off when the bike is moved. A thumb throttle allows for power-assistance from the motor whether you pedal or not. The thumb throttle is included with all Bionx kits at Electric Cyclery.

The Bionx systems require a thread-on freewheel for rear wheel gearing. If you are unsure as to what size freewheel is needed, simply count the number of sprockets on the rear wheel. Electric Cyclery customers have the option of ordering a 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 speed freewheel with any of the Bionx conversion kits on checkout.
