Schindelhauer Bikes is redefining what it means to ride electric with the debut of the Arthur Ultimate. This sleek urban e-bike blurs traditional cycling and cutting-edge electric performance. At the heart of this hybrid machine lies the featherlight Mahle X20 rear hub motor, tipping the scales at just 1.39 kg and offering up to 55 Nm of torque. The stealthy 250 Wh battery is tucked into the downtube, controlled via a minimalist button on the top tube. The result? A ride that feels less like a clunky e-bike and more like a high-performance city commuter, powered but not overpowering.

The impressive Pinion Smart is paired with the Mahle motor Shift drivetrain. This system delivers lightning-fast gear changes—just 0.2 seconds—with automated features like Start.Select and Pre.Select that intuitively adapts to stop-and-go city traffic. Riders can dial in their preferred cadence, making every commute a tailored experience. The 9-speed gearbox offers a 568% range and is centrally mounted for optimal stability, while TRP HYWIRE controls provide clean, electronic shifting at your fingertips.

But this bike isn’t just brains and brawn—it’s beautifully lit, too. The integrated LightSKIN system embeds award-winning LED lighting into the handlebars and seat post, three times brighter than the previous generation. Add optional Curana fenders and a Tubus rack, and you have a commuter-ready beast weighing only 16.2 kg. Available now in jade green, the Arthur Ultimate starts at $7,500 and is ready to upgrade your daily ride.
