Meet "The One"—Vaast's Model E/1, a ground-breaking electric bike that redefines modern mobility. Engineered for a harmonious blend of power, comfort, and responsive handling, this pedelec is a fusion of utility and elegance. Its sleek monoframe houses the NAILD R3ACT suspension system, a top-tier technology designed to enhance stability, traction, and ground contact even under the demands of speed and varied terrain.

Powering the E/1 is the Bosch Gen 4 Performance Drive motor, delivering 85Nm of torque and a top speed of 45 km/h. Paired with a 500Wh Bosch Powertube battery and a Bosch Kiox display with Bluetooth connectivity, this system offers reliable, long-range performance and advanced navigation and data options.

The Shimano XT/SLX 12-speed drivetrain provides smooth shifting with optimized chain control and minimal noise, making it ideal for urban commutes or scenic rides through mixed terrain. Combined with the responsive Praxis Alloy E-Crank and KMC C12 corrosion-resistant chain, the E/1 ensures efficient power transfer with every pedal stroke.

This e-bike is more than a mode of transportation—it's a statement of a forward-thinking lifestyle. Whether you're riding on asphalt or concrete, the Vaast E/1 is built to provide unmatched comfort, efficiency, and longevity.
