Freedom in Comfort, Strength in Every Ride

The BLADE 40 is the result of years of research and refinement, combining performance, technology and a true spirit of adventure.
Its harmonious lines ensure control, stability and fluidity on any type of terrain.
It may look like a traditional gravel bike, but it is much more: an e-gravel iwhich motorbattery and electronics seamlessly blend into the frame, creating a natural balance of power, lightness and style.

Precision Meets Adventure

The sand color of the BLADE 40 embodies the very essence of the gravel e-bike: freedom, resilience and harmony with nature.
A tone born from earth and dust, designed for riders who love unpaved routes and adventures far from asphalt.
The presence of black details, white lettering and a matte finish completes the chromatic blend with discreet elegance, enhancing the frame’s bold lines and adventurous character without sacrificing style or readability.

Invisible Strength, Pure Form

The customization of the BLADE 40 motor meets three key requirements: a clean aesthetic worthy of a true e-gravel bike, high power delivery, and optimized weight distribution, so that even without the battery it rivals the finest specialissima models of the brand.
These goals were achieved through component miniaturization and the original positioning of the motor on the rear wheel: an innovative brushless, gearless system that delivers outstanding climbing performance with a reduction ratio of up to 13.5:1.
Hub drive eliminates power losses caused by chain transmission, allowing all 250 real watts to be delivered directly to the wheel, achieving motor efficiency of up to 91%.
The rearward positioning also ensures optimal weight balance.
Electrical connections between the motor and battery are fully integrated into the frame and feature IP65 protection, ensuring resistance to water and humidity.

Power That Lasts 100km

The battery of the new e-gravel bike is entirely designed and manufactured in Italy using 3D technology. Perfectly integrated inside the down tube, it is easily removable and can therefore be recharged anywhere, without the need to bring the bike along.
Despite its low weight of just 2,300 grams, thanks to a 1.5 mm thick aluminum housing, it delivers class-leading performance: the new C.B.T. battery provides 378 Wh nominal capacity and an impressive 430 Wh effective capacity.
This represents 52% more charge than traditional batteries on the market, offering an autonomy that makes the auxiliary unit unnecessary.
Built with top-tier components, including Samsung (or Panasonic) cells and a charger with Phoenix connector, the BLADE 40 battery is a true technological gem, developed alongside the e-gravel frame for seamless and functional integration.
The battery is not secured by traditional locking systems, but by the frame’s distinctive “horseshoe” structure, which holds it in place with an automatic locking mechanism, eliminating the unwanted vibrations so disliked by cycling enthusiasts.
The composite tube tolerances of the BLADE 40 are reduced to one tenth of a millimeter, ensuring a solid, silent and perfectly homogeneous structure.

The Smart Heart of Your Ride

The electronic control unit, positioned on the top tube and protected by a dedicated housing (SLS DURAFORM PA PLASTIC), is the central hub for communication between the components of the BLADE 40 e-gravel bike.

It communicates exclusively with the batterymotor and onboard computer, ensuring smooth, secure data exchange protected from external interference.
This optimized system guarantees maximum efficiency and preserves rider performance, turning every pedal stroke into an experience of total control and precision.

Tested to Perfection

All the electronics of the BLADE 40 have been certified by the independent laboratory Teseo (Eiffage Group), which boasts high-profile collaborations in the aerospace, aeronautics, automotive, and military sectors.
