ADVANCED MODEL YEAR 2023 – REVOLUTION RECO

Advanced kicks off the 2023 model year with a fireworks display of e-bike innovations. The new Reco models are more than revolutionary with their 100% recyclable frames made from Advanced Composite material. They are produced efficiently and environmentally friendly in Germany and save 68% CO2 emissions compared to aluminum frames from Asia.

But numbers alone don’t do the Reco justice. Even at first glance, the design is impressive, with its striking lines and edges and the prominent Advanced 3D logo.

Frame made of plastic granulate with recycled carbon fibers

Reco is the realization of a great idea: designing more sustainable e-bikes through efficient, advanced manufacturing techniques such as injection molding in Germany. The patented Reco frame technology. The advanced composite material of plastic granulate with 40% recycled carbon fibers from the automotive industry is 100% recyclable and has fantastic noise and shock absorbing properties. Production in Germany saves 68% of C02 emissions. The Reco geometry is based on trekking bike frames with a focus on safe handling and a comfortable riding position. 

Fully integrated brake lines and shift cables, routed through the steering head directly into the frame, enhance the ultra-modern look of the plastic frames made from a single mold. Depending on individual requirements, the Reco models are available in a sporty version with Shimano Deore 10-speed gears or for daily touring and commuting with Shimano 5-speed hub gears and low-maintenance Gates timing belts.
