Ampler's Nova eBike is the world's first eBike powered by a USB-C charging cord, appealing to non-traditional cyclists with its stylish design and European manufacturing. The award highlights a pending EU standard for pedalecs requiring a physical connector by 2025, which may render the USB-C design non-compliant.
Xpedo introduces a new line of Omni powermeter pedals that offer accurate dual-sided measurement, featuring industry-leading specifications, including 3000W max power and +/-1% accuracy.
"There's an almost philosophical connection between Matera's ancient stone dwellings, etched directly into the limestone, and a steel frame handmade in Italy. Just as Matera has withstood the test of time, handcrafted steel frames have maintained their special place in cycling despite newer materials coming and going. We've created a bike that connects riders to the terrain in the same way Matera's ancient structures connect to the landscape - through harmony, not domination." - Giovanni Battaglin
