Orro Terra E Apex 1x HM1-SYS E-Bike 2023

Orro Terra E Apex 1x HM1-SYS E-BikeThe perfect bike for exploring well off the beaten path, taking on much longer rides and for easily ascending tough offroad hills, the Terra E Apex 1x HM1-SYS is an electric bike (E-Bike) that’s ready for any riding situation, terrain or weather. Its advanced Carbon frame is backed up with the FSA System HM1 electric motor, a full SRAM Apex1 1x11 speed drivetrain and hydraulic disc brakes.After years of product conceptualisation and design development Orro has welcomed its first electric bike into the Terra family. Early in the design process this brand homed in on gravel riding as the basis for electric development. Orro wanted to give cyclists the ability to take on more mileage and make it easier to tackle tough off-road climbs. Terra E marks its considered entry into the empowering world of lightweight electrically assisted bikes.Terra E has an integrated design and user experience. Each of the five colour coded power modes are easily selected while riding using a backlit button on the top tube. The clean lines of this lightweight carbon fibre gravel bike mean it barely looks like an E-Bike. A svelte downtube hides the 250-Wh battery of the FSA System HM1, plus, with an optional range extender cell which is carried in a bottle cage, the capacity for power can be doubled. A mobile application wirelessly interacts with the system, adding the ability for riders to review battery performance and customise the settings.In developing a hub motor driven e-bike Orro was able to keep the horizontal distance between the pedals, known as "Q Factor", the same as typical non-electric bikes. This gives Terra E a riding stance and pedalling characteristics that will feel familiar to all cyclists. The frame is designed from the ground up for the System HM1 motor and battery units. These components can deliver a maximum 42Nm of torque and a range of around 50 miles. Finally, integrated torque and speed sensors provide natural feeling assistance across each power setting.
