The Wonderwagen Neo 2 is equipped with a 545Wh battery that provides power through a Bosch Cargo Line e-bike motor. A Shimano CUES 10 speed drivetrain promises a robust, light-maintenance transmission and Magura hydraulic disc brakes contribute ample stopping-power, even when fully loaded.
On the Wonderwagen Neo 1, the drivetrain goes even more light-maintenance, with the removal of the rear derailleur and addition of an internal hub gear system from Enviolo.
