Our ultra-lightweight e-bikes weigh up to 10 kg less than traditional electric models, delivering immediate advantages in your daily urban commute.
The real advantages of our ultra-lightweight engineering:
• Handling and agility: The drastic weight reduction ensures a responsive, lightning-fast ride through city traffic, keeping the bike incredibly nimble.
• Ease of transport: Lifting the bicycle to clear steps, loading it into an elevator, or bringing it inside your home or office becomes a smooth, light, and effortless task.
11 gears mean always having the right gear: whether you are starting off from a traffic light, tackling a climb, or maintaining your pace on the flats, you always find the perfect cadence effortlessly.
Combined with the thrust of the FSA motor, the SunRace shifting system handles every change in incline smoothly and silently.
More gears also mean optimal management of the motor speed: the electrical system always operates at its most efficient point, extending battery range without sacrificing power.
The range does not come from heavy and bulky batteries, but from the extreme efficiency of our ecosystem. The reduced weight of the bike and the intelligent power delivery maximize performance, offering you a real range of up to 100 km on a single charge.
For those who wish to push further or tackle longer journeys, the system is designed to support an additional Range Extender. This solution instantly doubles the total capacity, bringing it to 504 Wh, guaranteeing you up to 200 km of uninterrupted riding.
The rear hub motor offers both an aesthetic and mechanical advantage: extremely compact, it blends seamlessly into the wheel, maintaining the clean and minimalist lines of a traditional bicycle.
By acting directly on the wheel, it delivers a smooth and silent push, eliminating friction on the pedals and zeroing out any stress on the drivetrain.
With the motor turned off or above 25 km/h, the wheel rolls completely free: a natural rolling sensation, the authentic pleasure of a pure analog ride. Perfect every day, from tarmac to gravel.
The torque sensor measures the force you apply to the pedals in real time, adjusting the assistance in a proportional and continuous way: push harder, the motor responds more; slow down, the assistance adapts instantly.
The result is a ride that feels natural from the very first meter: no lag, no unnatural jerks, just the sensation of pedaling with your own legs, simply stronger.
The system is integrated into the rear hub and delivers 42 Nm of torque: enough power to tackle climbs and standing starts effortlessly, always keeping you in total control of your pace.

Handlebar Options Guide
Flat Aluminium
The Flat handlebar gives you a more direct and slightly sportier position, with a responsive feel when changing direction. It is ideal if you want a precise, clean and reactive ride, especially in the city or whenever you prefer a sharper connection with the bike.
Riser Aluminium
The Riser handlebar raises the hand position slightly and brings your upper body into a more natural posture. It reduces pressure on wrists, shoulders and back, making everyday riding more comfortable without losing control. The most balanced choice for commuting and longer urban rides.
BAM City
BAM City is designed to increase comfort on urban roads. Its shape places your hands in a more natural position, while the shock-absorbing structure helps filter vibrations, cobblestones and uneven asphalt. The result is a smoother, less tiring ride while keeping the bike agile and easy to control.

DISCOVER NOKOURBAN
NOKO URBAN is the Italian electric bicycle designed for those who want to dominate the city every day: lightweight (14.5 kg), snappy, and versatile thanks to the chain drive with a 11-speed Sunrace gear system, designed to offer maximum control on any urban incline. The FSA System HM 1.0 (250W and 42 Nm) works together with the integrated 252Wh battery with Samsung cells, ensuring fluid assistance and a range of up to 100 km.
Handmade in Sicily, available in 4 sizes and 4 colors, it is the ideal companion for daily commuting and all urban travel – no traffic, no stress, worry-free.

FSA (Full Speed Ahead) is a global manufacturer of professional cycling components. The HM 1.0 system is the integrated electric solution powering NOKO bikes: rear hub motor, lithium battery integrated into the frame, torque sensor and controller in a single ecosystem engineered to work in perfect synergy.
A complete system, controllable via a dedicated app and compatible with the Range Extender for those who want to go further.
The heart of the HM 1.0 system is a brushless DC motor integrated into the rear hub. Silent, compact and free of mechanical friction on the drivetrain, it delivers 250W of nominal power with 42Nm of torque - managed in real time by the integrated torque sensor, which calibrates assistance in proportion to the force applied to the pedals with every pedal stroke.
When the motor is off or above 25 km/h, the wheel rolls completely free with nomechanical resistance.
Battery with Samsung cells, 252Wh capacity, integrated into the frame's down tube: a position that keeps the centre of gravity low and centred, preserving the bike's lines without aesthetic compromises.
100 km of real-world range on a single full charge completed in 4 hours. Designed to deliver over 500 charge cycles and a total lifespan exceeding 50,000 km - a platform built to last.
The HM 1.0 system features 5 assistance levels selec table via the integrated button, up to the European legal limit of 25 km/h. On startup, the system automatically activates at ECO level and the torque sensor self-calibrates - it is essential not to apply any load on the pedals during this phase.
Levels are identified by an LED colour:
• Level 1 - ECO (green)
• Level 2 (blue)
• Level 3 (pink)
• Level 4 (yellow)
• Level 5 - BOOST (red)
The battery charge level can be monitored in real time via the LED flash, or with greater accuracy through the dedicated app.
The Range Extender is the energy expansion module of the FSA HM 1.0 system: it mounts on the dedicated holder fixed to the frame and connects to the dedicated port, instantly doubling the total system capacity from 252Wh to 504Wh.
The system manages both batteries automatically: on startup, the Range Extender is detected and activated automatically. The Range Extender energy is consumed first - when depleted, the system switches automatically to the main battery.
The charge level can be monitored in real time via the integrated LEDs on the device or through the FSA System app.
With both batteries fully charged, total range reaches up to 200 km on a single charging session.
The FSA System app (iOS and Android) connects to the bike via Bluetooth and turns your smartphone into a complete digital dashboard, fully customisable based on the data you want to monitor.
The dashboard displays in real time: speed, active assistance level, battery charge status (main battery and Range Extender separately), odometer, energy consumption, motor/rider power ratio, distance travelled, session duration and altitude.
From the same app you can perform firmware updates, access system diagnostics and monitor the overall status of the bike at any time.
The motor stays on without providing assistance, allowing you to switch levels while riding without stopping. Range remains at its maximum.
These figures are indicative and refer to an 80 kg rider on mixed terrain at 20 °C. Actual range also depends on gradient, wind, tyre pressure and pedalling cadence. The more actively you pedal, the closer you can get to the upper value shown for each level.
NOKOURBAN sets a new urban standard by combining the precision of the 11-speed SunRace gear system with the power of FSA motorization. A technical synergy designed to eliminate all effort, ensuring a smooth and natural ride in all metropolitan conditions.
- Premium Gear Range: 11 speeds to always find the perfect cadence. Combined with the motor's boost, it makes restarts and inclines unnoticeable, offering fluid and silent progression.
- Energy Efficiency: Precise gear management keeps the electric system within its optimal range, extending battery life without sacrificing power.
- Superior Reliability: High-end components selected to withstand city demands, ensuring consistent performance and long-lasting mechanical precision.
This architecture makes the NOKOURBAN the ultimate solution: refined mechanics working in total harmony with the bike's electric soul, giving you total control on every road.

No, no resistance. The secret lies in the FSA brushless motor located in the rear hub. This technology is equipped with an integrated freewheel system that decouples the motor from the drivetrain when the assistance is turned off, completely eliminating any mechanical friction.
Unlike classic mid-drive motors that generate the annoying "braking" effect, the FSA system leaves you with total freedom of movement. Combined with the exceptionally low weight for the e-bike category, this allows you to continue pedaling smoothly, naturally, and without excessive effort to your destination.
The choice depends on your daily routes:
• Belt drive (Single-speed): Silent, clean, and zero-maintenance. The ideal choice for quick urban commutes on mostly flat routes.
• Chain drive (Multi-speed): Maximum versatility. The perfect option if your commute often includes hills, overpasses, or if you want to adapt your pedaling to any incline
Compared to traditional e-bikes that often exceed 25 kg, our bikes weigh on average less than 15 kg. A difference of over 10 kg that revolutionizes your daily mobility:
• Total agility in traffic: The bike is incredibly responsive and quick. It guarantees a smooth ride and maximum control between cars or in tight spaces.
• Effortless handling (off the saddle): Lifting it to overcome a few steps, fitting it into an elevator, taking it on the train, or loading it into the trunk of your car becomes a quick and easy task for anyone.
No more heavy lifting to park or move the bike by hand: you get all the electric power with the footprint and handling of a traditional bicycle.
By default, with standard shipping, the bike arrives 80% assembled. Upon delivery, you will need to mount the front wheel, attach the handlebar to the stem, and install the pedals and saddle by following our instructions.
For maximum convenience, you can add the "100% ASSEMBLED" premium option directly to your cart. With this upgrade, the bike arrives at your home already prepped by our technicians: you will only need to straighten the handlebar, screw in the pedals, adjust the saddle height, and in just 2 minutes you are ready to ride!
Whatever your choice, our support team is always available to guide you step-by-step if you have any questions during the process.
Yes, the bike is compatible with our racks and fenders.
You can find the item directly among the related products on this page.
No, the battery is not removable: it is hidden and seamlessly integrated into the frame. To charge it, simply use the dedicated charging port. This solution allows us to maintain extremely clean lines, making your e-bike look exactly like a beautiful, traditional non-electric bike.
Yes, absolutely. The bike is compatible with the specific FSA Range Extender.
• Double the range: The extender adds 252 Wh. Combined with the integrated battery, it brings your bike's total capacity to an impressive 504 Wh.
• Smart power draw: When connected, the system draws power from the extender first, seamlessly switching to the main battery only once it's depleted.
Yes, absolutely. The entire electrical system (motor, battery, and wiring) is fully waterproof and sealed. You can safely wash your bike after a muddy ride or in the rain.
We simply recommend using a standard, low-pressure garden hose, avoiding high-pressure power washers directly on the electronic components and the hub.
IN-FRAME BATTERY
The 252Wh FSA battery with Samsung cells is integrated into the frame's downtube for an optimal center of gravity and a clean aesthetic. It guarantees a range of up to 100 km per single charge and fully recharges in just 4 hours. With 500 charge cycles and a certified lifespan of 50,000 km of guaranteed riding, it is designed to accompany you every day for years, worry-free.

Shock Absorber Handlebar - OPTIONAL
Seeking maximum comfort on every surface? At the time of purchase, you can choose the BAM suspension handlebar - available in City and Trek versions - specifically designed to absorb shocks and dampen vibrations. Riding on bumpy roads or cobblestones will no longer be a limit.
Choosing NOKO is a concrete gesture for the planet. For every e-bike sold, we plant a tree in partnership with Treedom - the leading international platform for verified tree planting worldwide.
To date, the NOKOBIKE forest has already:
- Planted 301 trees.
- Contributed to absorbing 155 tons of CO₂.
Your tree is planted to restore ecosystems, support local communities, and capture CO₂ over time. A real, transparent, and certified commitment - because sustainability isn’t just a slogan; it’s built into every NOKO we deliver.
One tree. One ride. A real change.
