This Italian company specializes in motorcycle production and is now stepping into the world of e-bikes. La nuova Futa All Road è la testimonianza più recente del impegno di Ducati nel campo di invenzione e di alta performance. This article shall uncover all the details of this new exciting electric bike and it performance, what makes it stand out from different e-bikes.
A New Model to Ducati Product Range
Ducati forayed into the e-bike sphere a couple of years ago with the enduro leaning TK-01RR, the all mountain MIG-S, and the road e-bike, Futa. Launched into the market, the Futa All Road is an addition to their list of products, satisfying the riders with versatility. The Tread 3 is intended for paved as well as light-duty off-road path use which makes the bicycle well suited for the adventurers.
Lightweight Carbon Fiber Frame
Futa has used high-end carbon fiber for the frame of this All Road; it has a total weight of 27. 3 lbs (without pedals). This kind of construction also makes the bike light and this makes it easy to maneuver especially when riding through the towns or when riding in the rough terrains. The bike is available in four different sizes, S-XL, which would accommodate riders of different sizes from petite women to the large barbell workout enthusiasts.
Powerful Hub Motor and Battery.
On this Futa All Road is FSA HM 1. 0 hub motor that of 250W power and 42Nm torque when fully charged. This motor is matched with FSA’s 250Wh integrated battery that will prove sufficient for longer rides. Motor has 5 PAS (Pedal Assist System) modes that gives users more options regarding the control of power depending on the slope and the rider’s expectations.
Advanced Control System
The motor of the Futa All Road bicycle is controlled by Garmin made controller situated on a handle of the bicycle. This simple control management system enables the user to select the level of PAS desired, check the state of the battery, and other related options. This control system is highly integrated and this makes it to provide a very smooth and comfortable riding experience.
High-Performance Components
Eliminating all new possibilities of cracking or failing, Ducati has fitted the Futa All Road with the best components you could ask for. The bike uses FSA K-Force crank sets, SRAM Rival hydraulic discs, and the latest electronic SRAM eTap shifters. These high quality parts achieve this goal of making the car’s response prompt and making it respond well when climbing a steep incline or even flat surfaces.
Enhanced Tire Design
As for the characteristic of Futa All Road, one of the most remarkable is the tire configuration. Brakes are provided by Campagnolo, with a 160mm brake rotor at the front and a 140mm at the rear They use Pirelli tires, with a 38mm Tirreno Dry tire in front and a 35mm tire at the back. This tiny deviation we see from the Road Futa’s 35mm tires is that the rear might not fit a wider tire at the moment. But the fact that it is wider at the front provides more balance and contact, especially on rough terrain.
Bike-Packing Capabilities
As is appropriate with bikes of this type, the Futa All Road is built for bike-packing. It comes with three Skuad bags: being handlebar, frame, and seat. These bags give sufficient space for the gears and this bike can be used for weekend adventures or other form of conquering nature without the need for a tent. That said, the said bike comes with a slightly massive 35mm rear tyre, and wider tyres normally provide more comfort and balance, particularly on confronting terrains.
Riding Comfort and Versatility
It is Ducati’s bikes on wheels, the kind that one can ride rather than pedal; and much like the Multistrada, this is an all-roads bicycle. On paved roads it is comfortable and for lighter off-road trails it can handle just fine. For dedicated bike-packing it has its limitations because of the tire size and gearing but for the regular Joe and Jane as well as the adventure enthusiasts, this is perfect.
Price and Availability
Futa All Road is available on ducati official website priced at €6490 (approximately $7010) with a discount price from over $7500. This actually makes the Futa All Road a perfect bike for anyone out there who would wish to have a high quality e-bike that is powered by Ducati engineering and design prowess that would come at a cheaper price when matched to other high performing bikes in the market.
Conclusion
Built around an aluminium frame and equipped with a Bosch motor together with a 13Ah battery, Ducati’s Futa All Road is worth a look if you want an e-bike in the£ 1,500 – £2,500 price bracket that’s sporty, versatile, and stylish.
