FAQ

Drive System
Does the Avinox Drive System have a hub-drive or a mid-drive motor?
The Avinox Drive System uses a mid-drive motor.
What is the speed limit of the Avinox Drive System?
The Avinox Drive System automatically adjusts its maximum speed to comply with the regulations of the country/region you are in. Speed limits for major countries/regions are as follows:
European Union: 25 kph
United Kingdom: 25 kph
United States: 32 kph (20 mph)
China: 25 kph
Can the speed limit on the Avinox Drive System be removed?
No. The maximum speed should comply with the regulations of the country/region where it is being used. Avinox does not provide a method to remove the speed limit.
What intelligent functions can users access when the Avinox Drive System is connected to the app?
When connected to the app, the following features are supported:

1. Display a variety of data such as speed, ride distance, cadence, power, torque, gradient, altitude, calories burned, and heart rate (when connected to a heart rate monitor).

2. Personalized adjustment of assistance parameters (supports adjustment of 5 parameters: Power Assistance, Max. Torque, Assisted Start, Continued Assist, and Motor Overrun).

3. After completing a ride, upload the data and route to a mobile device for post-ride analysis. Also, satisfy users' desires to share their data and routes with friends or on social media platforms.

4. In-Vehicle Connectivity and Anti-Theft Security Features
• Find your bike: Supports remotely waking the bike to emit a beeping sound so you can locate it.
• If the bike detects movement while locked, it will send a local alarm; coupled with a 4G connection, it will trigger a real-time notification in the app, and the user can view the bike's location in the app.
• Anti-Theft Mode: The bike can be remotely activated into an anti-theft mode, rendering it inoperative and disabling the power assistance function. Additionally, the bike's movement trajectory is continuously displayed.

5. Health Management System: When the drive system is turned on, it automatically conducts a health check. In the event of a malfunction, a reminder will pop up on the display along with an audible alert. Users can access detailed fault status through the Avinox app and receive self-diagnostic recommendations to facilitate self-troubleshooting.
What motor parameters can I set in the Avinox app?
1. Assistance:
Adjusting the level of assistance involves modifying the assistance ratio of the drive unit. Increasing the assistance amplifies the assistance ratio, lessening the rider's pedal effort and making the ride easier. Conversely, reducing the assistance decreases the assistance ratio, increasing the rider's pedal effort and enhancing the rider's sense of participation in the ride.

2. Assistance Range:
The assistance range refers to the range of the assistance ratio of the drive unit. The minimum value of the assistance range represents the assistance ratio for riding on flat surfaces, while the maximum value represents the assistance ratio for riding on steep slopes. Within the rider's set assistance range, the assistance ratio dynamically adjusts based on the road gradient and resistance. If the rider sets the minimum and maximum values to the same number, the output of the assistance becomes independent of the road gradient and resistance, and the assistance will always be maintained at the set value by the rider.

3. Max. Torque in Auto and Trail modes:
The maximum torque represents the upper limit of the acceleration torque and also determines the upper limit of the bike's acceleration. Lowering the maximum torque slows down the bike's acceleration, while increasing it speeds up the acceleration. In this scenario, if one aims to achieve the same level of acceleration as with higher torque, additional effort from the rider is necessary.

4. Max. Torque in Eco and Turbo modes:
The maximum torque represents the maximum assistance value of the drive unit. Increasing the maximum torque can lead to faster acceleration under similar road conditions and easier uphill riding. However, on surfaces with low traction, such as icy roads, the rear wheel is more prone to slipping. Conversely, reducing acceleration and uphill riding becomes more strenuous, but the bike is less prone to slipping on such surfaces.

5. Assisted Start:
The Assisted Start determines the rate at which assistance increases from a pedal stop to pedal resumption. Boosting the Assisted Start facilitates easier incline starts and pedaling resumption after a stop on inclines. However, excessive Assisted Start can lead to instances of slipping and wheel lift during incline starts. Riders should prudently adjust this setting based on their abilities and road conditions. Reducing the Assisted Start diminishes acceleration during starts on flat ground.

6. Continued Assist:
The Continued Assist determines the sensitivity of the assist response to the rider's pedaling force. Increasing the Continued Assist enhances the responsiveness of the assist, leading to a quicker increase when the rider applies more force and a faster decrease when less force is applied. Conversely, decreasing the Continued Assist reduces the sensitivity of the assist, resulting in a slower increase when more pedal force is applied and a slower decrease when less force is applied.

7. Motor Overrun
Motor Overrun indicates the ongoing assistance provided for a duration after pedaling has ceased, gradually diminishing based on the assistance level at the point of stopping. Increasing the Motor Overrun prolongs this continued assistance. Motor Overrun is not continuously active. By assessing the bike's speed at the moment of pedal stopping, if significant acceleration is detected after ceasing pedaling, the overun assistance will be proactively disengaged to ensure safety. When riders need to navigate significant obstacles such as tree roots, we recommend initially applying a strong pedal stroke before stopping to enhance the intensity of the overrun assistance, thereby aiding the rider in overcoming the obstacle more effectively.
What is the maximum power of the Drive Unit? When do the 850W and 1000W power levels apply?
The Drive Unit has a rated power of 250 W and a peak power of 850 W.
In Boost mode, it can output a limited burst of up to 1000 W of power for 30 seconds.
How many kilometers can a rider travel on a full battery charge?
The range of eMTB depends on several factors, including environmental temperature, rider weight, pedaling cadence, the use of riding assist modes, and climbing elevation, etc.
In Avinox's tests, a 75kg rider using the Amflow PL Pro (800Wh) in Auto mode could achieve approximately 60 km of mountain biking (or around 1440 m of climbing).
