Canada’s Wolff Releases Five New Electric Bicycles

Canadian electric bicycle brand Wolff has a selection of new e-bikes on the market that are sure to catch the attention of both commuters and enthusiasts alike. There are a total of five new models on offer, and each of them strike a balance between affordability, practicality, and style. Let’s take a closer look at the new bikes on offer. 

To start with, the Wolff Lyra is the brand’s most affordable model on offer. Priced at just $1,350 USD, this e-bike blends everyday practicality with a touch of retro styling. It’s built atop a 6061 aluminum alloy frame and rolls on 700x38c tires. It’s powered by the brand’s proprietary electric hub motor with an output of 350 watts. The motor is paired to a down-tube mounted battery pack which is said to return about 35 miles on a single charge. In terms of tech, the bike gets five assist levels, as well as a handlebar-mounted display. As standard, it’s equipped with a set of fenders, a cargo rack, and a side stand. 

As we move up the ladder in price, we also get more features. The Ursa Major, retailing for $2,549 USD, takes the Lyra’s practicality, and throws in a lot of rugged utility. It rolls on fat tires measuring 26×4 inches, and gets a sloping aluminum frame. In terms of performance, it’s packing a Bafang hub motor with a peak output of 500 watts, and a sleek, frame-integrated battery pack that offers up to 34 miles on a single charge. It also gets a handy twist-grip throttle, for times when you’re simply not in the mood to pedal. 

Up next is Wolff’s most rugged electric bike yet. As its name suggests, the Colossus is big in adventure and off-road capability. Rolling on fat Kenda tires measuring 26×4.5 inches, the bike packs some impressive MTB components such as a SRAM X5 nine-speed drivetrain, as well as confidence-inspiring Tektro hydraulic disc brakes. Performance-wise, it gets the same 500-watt Bafang motor as the Ursa Major, and returns about 35 miles on a single charge of its frame-integrated battery pack. It carries a retail price tag of $2,699 USD. 

Up next, the $3,299-USD Tucana is sure to be a handy companion for folks looking to run some busy errands around town. This electric cargo trike offers quite a lot of cargo space, and thanks to that 500-watt Bafang motor, is more than up to the task of hauling some heavy cargo. It rolls on a 24×4-inch front tire, and a pair of 20×4-inch tires at the bike. Should the going get tough, the rider can help pedal alongside the hub-mounted motor thanks to a seven-speed Shimano drivetrain. The trike comes to a stop with disc brakes mounted on all three wheels. 

Last but not least, we have the Wolff Utopia. Riding on the trend of do-it-all, go-anywhere folding bikes, the Utopia is equipped with fat tires measuring 20×4 inches, and is powered by a Jiabo 48-volt, 500-watt, rear hub motor. Power is supplied to the motor by a frame-integrated battery with a rage of about 29 miles. The bike features five levels of pedal assistance, and is equipped with a wide-ratio SRAM drivetrain and Tektro mechanical disc brakes. For a dash of convenience, Wolff has thrown in a rear luggage rack to haul around your daily essentials. The price? $2,799 USD.
