With its smooth-riding composite frame, lightweight battery,
new SyncDrive Move Plus integrated rear hub motor and all-road ready 38mm
tyres, the Defy Advanced E+ AR is the ideal choice for performance-minded road
riders who want to tackle steep hills, maintain higher speeds, and experience
road riding with no limitations.
Key Performance Factors
SEAMLESS POWER
The SyncDrive Move Plus motor is integrated into the rear
hub and delivers 30Nm of power (equivalent to 75Nm with a mid-drive motor)
directly to the rear wheel. Weighing just 1.7kg, it’s specially tuned for the
pedaling pattern of performance road riding, with minimal energy loss and more
torque at higher speeds. The result is a natural feel when accelerating or
maintaining steady power at speed, and no motor drag while freewheeling or
coasting.
SYSTEM INTEGRATION
The down tube integrated EnergyPak 400 battery system weighs
just 2.3kg and is purpose-built for the specific needs of E-bikes. A top tube
mounted RideControl Go button makes it quick and easy to turn the E-bike on or
off and change power modes. Smart Assist technology uses three sensors to
precisely measure the power being applied to the pedals and produce just the
right amount of support for a smooth, natural ride experience. All models
feature SRAM wireless electronic shifters and an integrated taillight.
PURE ROAD PERFORMANCE
A lightweight composite frameset and high-performance
components including a D-Fuse seatpost and handlebars for compliance,
integrated WheelSystems with all-road ready 35mm tubeless tires, and a wireless
electronic drivetrain all add up to a smooth, efficient ride quality that
mirrors the award-winning performance of the Defy endurance road bike range.

Weight: The most accurate way to
determine any bike’s weight is to have your local dealer weigh it for you. Many
brands strive to list the lowest possible weight, but in reality weight can
vary based on size, finish, hardware and accessories. All our bikes are designed
for best-in-class weight and ride quality.
