Enduo by New Motion Labs: E-Mobility with Cutting-Edge Drivetrain Technology

Re-engineering the drivetrain

New Motion Labs is on a mission to solve fundamental engineering problems. With a team of talented engineers and designers, they focus on creating disruptive technologies and solutions that deliver a competitive edge and game-changing commercial opportunities. The flagship product, Enduo, reimagines the traditional drivetrain, transforming the performance cycling, e-bike and cargo bike sectors.

Enduo is a tried, tested, and patented technology that has re-engineered the drivetrain for the first time in over 100 years, achieving a significant breakthrough in mechanical power transfer. The secret lies in New Motion Labs’ innovative sprocket tooth profile, which promises reliability, efficiency, and a remarkable lifetime performance that is 3.5 times longer than conventional drivetrains. The cargo and e-bike sectors have recognized the potential of Enduo, embracing the technology to increase the lifetime of their drivetrains and enable their bikes to travel further, be more reliable and durable and cope better with the more powerful motors. Leading cargo and e-bike OEMs, fleet providers, bike wholesalers, and component resellers are rapidly adopting this innovative technology.

Enhanced durability and reliability

Enduo Cargo, for instance, delivers enhanced durability and reliability, resulting in a lower total cost of ownership (TCO) for every bike. Moreover, its recyclable stainless-steel components replace the current plastic and rubber belts and as all parts are manufactured in Europe they ensure sustainability, shorter lead times without compromising performance. The Enduo technology has been trialed and tested on wear rigs at the University of Stuttgart and independent testing with partners including chain manufacturer IWIS and Enviolo.

For performance cycling, Enduo Track offers cyclists a significant advantage in power, speed and efficiency gains. Enduo Track boasts savings of up to 50% on drivetrain losses, as proven through extensive testing for drivetrain efficiency on their custom-built chain dynamometer.

Impressive results

The verified performance numbers of Enduo are impressive. Users of Enduo Cargo can travel up to 30,000 km, three and a half times further than with conventional drivetrains, without the need to replace a single chain. Real-world testing conducted by organizations like Absolutely Couriers (DPD) has demonstrated remarkable endurance. It has reached the 21,000 km mark with no maintenance or replacement after 15 months and the test is still running. Additionally, Enduo Cargo enables the delivery of 300% more packages compared to conventional drives and effortlessly handles extreme loads.

Awards

The excellence of Enduo has not gone unnoticed. It has received prestigious awards such as the Red Dot Design Award 2023 and Fiets Innovatie 2023. “The fact that you emerged victorious from such a strong group of participants is testimony to the extraordinary quality of your product – a wonderful achievement!”, said Professor Dr. Peter Zec Founder and CEO of Red Dot, on Enduo Cargo winning Red Dot Award: Product Design 2023.

Tom Scruby, National Operations Manager at Zedify - the UK’s largest cargo eBike fleet operator, expressed his satisfaction with the results of extensive live tests of Enduo Cargo on the Zedify Urban Arrow fleet: “Our fleet is made up of 95% cargo bikes and we rely on them running at their best to keep parcels arriving efficiently and on time. Enduo Cargo helps reduce our maintenance needs and increase our mileage per charge, because efficiency in the drive chain can have a huge impact on energy use.” he said.
