Rugged enough for the countryside, tough enough for the city. The eSPRESSO CC 575 EQ pairs the new, powerful Shimano EP6 drive unit with a high-capacity 750 Wh battery that sits in our ENERGY CRADLE frame design. It combines the convenience of an external battery with the looks of an internal battery in order to keep the handling safe and secure. We've also fitted tough 650b wheels with comfortable and grippy high-volume tyres that help take the sting out the bumps, along with a suspension fork and seatpost.
Highlights:
- Shimano Steps EP6 85Nm motor
- Internally mounted 750 Wh battery
- Shimano CUES 10-speed drivetrain
- Suspension fork and seat post
- Rugged 650b wheels Grippy high-volume tyres with reflective strip
- Mudguards, kickstand, rack, lock and lights
