How Clip works
This innovative device attaches to your bike's front fork, easily turning it into an e-bike. Clip is compatible with all city, road and bikeshare bikes with 26-inch to 28-inch tires. Weighing just 8.8 pounds for the Commuter model and 9.8 pounds for the Explorer model, it uses a friction-drive principle to provide propulsion, and its Bluetooth remote lets you control the ride-assist feature.
The Clip allows for a top speed of 15 mph and a range of up to four to six miles on the Commuter model and 10 to 12 miles on the Explorer model. It has a state-of-the-art lithium-ion battery pack designed to maximize performance and Clip. The Clip's innovative regenerative braking system also recharges the battery while riding. Plus, the Clip can be conveniently charged from a standard outlet, making it easy to power up just about anywhere.
