DUCATI CITY PEARL UOMO
The City Pearl features a very modern design with colors that recall the racing world, while maintaining a sheer downtown elegance. The light alloy frame built with high pressure hydroformed tubing, to improve handling without increasing weight, is combined with a monoshock suspension fork. The saddle is a perfect synthesis of sportiness and comfort.
The lithium battery is made with 40 Panasonic cells in a 4p10s configuration and is capable of delivering up to 15 amps without significant voltage drop, to ensure brisk accelerations. The third generation electric motor (brushless and sensorless) is integrated in the front hub to provide two-wheel traction (muscle energy on the rear wheel and electric power on the front wheel) and simplify any maintenance or repair of punctures; the planetary polymer gears inside optimize the torque at low speeds.
A crank mounted optical sensor with a phonic wheel provides the necessary information to the controller, which contains also the motor driver, to optimize the power assistance. The Nexus rear hub contains a 7-speed gear, to minimize maintenance, but also the risk of damage during use. The City Pearl offers exceptional ergonomics with the sensation of perfect control, which makes using it very intuitive and pleasant.
DUCATI CITY QUEEN iTorq
The queen of the city is a light and fast bike, beautifully designed and with a technological heart, to cruise around nimbly and effortlessly.
Elegance and versatility are the most obvious qualities of this modern mean of transportation, thanks to the low step-through getting on and off the bike is simple when you carry your child, both on handlebar type child seat or on the child seat that can be installed on the dedicated rear rack, an ideal base plate conceived to keep the center of gravity as low as possible.
The electrical assistance greatly increases the usable range of the bike, but it is also a great help when riding uphill, especially if you are carrying children or a gym bag. The riding position is relaxed and the gel padded saddle comfortable for longer rides.
The geometries and shapes of this bike, that hide in the rear profile a high capacity lithium battery, were developed by our designer together with the Ducati style center; the bike is available in two versions: speed and iTorq.
The speed version uses our classic electronics with optical speed sensor, providing maximum freedom of choice in the ratio between electrical support and muscle effort. The seven-speed Shimano external gear allows you to select the pedalling cadence.
The iTorq version uses cutting-edge electronics with a very sensitive torque sensor, a special controller with dedicated software and an ultra-quiet motor, to provide the most natural and pleasant pedal assisted bicycle you have ever ridden. The internal gear hub, which is well protected and does not require the attention of the typical conventional external rear derailleur, allows gear shift even while standing still.
DUCATI CUCCIOLO
The Cucciolo pedal assisted electric bicycle has a light-alloy frame and the battery is housed in a profile above the rear wheel, so that at first glance it looks like a classic city bike. The Cucciolo is made more precious by components such as saddle, grips, tool bag and mudguards made by Brooks, a historic British company that manufactures prestigious handmade leather accessories and saddles, and represents the reference point for all lovers of vintage bicycles.
The fascinating classic looks hides a technological heart, with optical pedaling sensors, Panasonic cell lithium battery, a third-generation brushless and sensorless electric motor and an electronic control unit that incorporates the motor controller. The Ducati Cucciolo electric bike is a unique object of desire with the perfect balance of form, technology, innovation and eco-sustainability, with a touch of classical elegance.
