CITIMOTI FULL-CARBON URBAN E-BIKE – 12.8 KG – AUTOMATIC GEARING – UNIQUE EUROPEAN EXHIBITION-DEMOMODEL

A particularly rare opportunity to own the CITIMOTI, an exceptionally light and strikingly designed urban e-bike from the manufacturer RoyalBaby, even before its official European market launch.

The offered unit is not a regular European shop model, but an original exhibition and demonstration model that was specially brought to Europe by the manufacturer to introduce the CITIMOTI to the European market.

At this moment, this bike is not yet ordinarily available on the European market. RoyalBaby is preparing the European launch of the CITIMOTI, making this unit a very early and rare European model.

FULL-CARBON CONSTRUCTION – ONLY 12.8 KG

One of the most impressive features of the CITIMOTI is undoubtedly its exceptionally low weight.

The e-bike weighs barely 12.8 kg.

That is unusually light for a full-fledged electric bike and significantly lighter than most traditional urban e-bikes, which often exceed 20 kg.

The bike is built around a full-carbon construction. The use of carbon not only contributes to the extremely low weight but also provides the high-quality, modern, and sporty look that is so characteristic of the design.

Thanks to the low weight, the CITIMOTI feels much more like a lightweight premium urban bike than a traditional heavy e-bike.

That difference is noticeable not only while riding but also when the bike needs to be lifted, transported, mounted on a bike rack, or taken into an apartment.

AUTOMATIC GEARING IN THE REAR WHEEL NUT

In addition to the exceptional weight, this CITIMOTI features a particularly user-friendly automatic gearing integrated into the rear hub.

The rider does not have to manually shift continuously. The gearing automatically adapts to the riding situation.

This not only increases riding comfort but also fits perfectly with the bike’s minimalist design.

There is no traditional external derailleur setup needed, keeping the rear of the bike exceptionally clean and sleek.

The combination of electric assist and automatic shifting makes the CITIMOTI especially easy and pleasant to ride.

250 W REAR WHEEL MOTOR

The electric assist is provided by a compact 250 W motor in the rear wheel.

The motor delivers around 35 Nm of torque and provides a smooth and natural assist during city rides, longer recreational trips, and daily commuting.

By integrating the motor into the rear wheel, the central part of the carbon frame remains completely free of a heavy mid-drive.

This also helps maintain the bike’s exceptionally clean look.

MINIMALIST DESIGN

CITIMOTI was clearly developed from a different philosophy than traditional electric city bikes.

Instead of equipping a conventional bike with conspicuous electric components, every effort was made to integrate all technology as discretely as possible into the design.

The battery, electric drive, cables, brakes, and automatic transmission were hidden as much as possible within the overall concept of the bike.

Thus, at first glance it is hardly apparent that it is an electric bike.

The CITIMOTI looks more like an exclusive modern design bike than a traditional e-bike.

The sleek frame, minimalist handlebars, concealed technology, and sporty geometry give the bike a very recognizable and futuristic appearance.

RANGE

Depending on the battery configuration, chosen support level, terrain, temperature, and rider weight, the CITIMOTI quotes a range of up to about 80 to 100 km.

The battery is discreetly integrated into the design and can be removed for separate charging.

UNIQUE EUROPEAN EXHIBITION- AND DEMO MODEL

This specific unit has a special background.

The bike was used by the manufacturer RoyalBaby as an exhibition and demonstration model for introducing the CITIMOTI to the European market.

It is therefore one of the very early CITIMOTI models currently in Europe.

The official commercial European introduction is being prepared by the manufacturer. At the time of this auction, CITIMOTI e-bikes are not yet regularly available through the European dealer network.

For the future owner, this means they can own a CITIMOTI even before the brand is widely offered on the European market.

EUROPEAN CERTIFICATION

Although this is a European exhibition and demonstration model, it is not merely a display prototype.

The bike has already been registered for the European market and possesses the required European certification and documentation.

A REMARKABLE E-BIKE FOR DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY ENTHUSIASTS

The CITIMOTI combines features that are rarely found together in electric bicycles: a full-carbon construction, a weight of barely 12.8 kg, an integrated rear-wheel motor, automatic gearing in the rear hub, and a particularly sleek industrial design.

Where many e-bikes are recognizable by their large battery, mid-drive, and heavy construction, CITIMOTI opts for the opposite.

Everything is geared toward low weight, simplicity, and integration.

The result is an electric bike that looks and feels like a light premium design bike, yet also features modern electric assist and automatic shifting.

Due to its status as an original European exhibition-demonstration model and the fact that CITIMOTI is not yet regularly available on the European market, it is also a particularly rare unit.

A unique opportunity to acquire one of the first CITIMOTI full-carbon e-bikes in Europe – even before the brand’s official European market introduction.

This version is one I would personally list on Catawiki: the 12.8 kg, full-carbon construction, automatic rear-hub gearing, and pre-launch demo-status stand out clearly right away.
