CIXI PERS technology
The era of chainless electric bikes begins here
Imagine a world where mechanics fade away to make room for the purity of movement. At Ateliers HeritageBike, we have chosen to integrate the PERS (Pedaling Energy Recovery System) technology developed by CIXI. This is not just an evolution, it is a revolution: the first chainless electric bike, designed for those who demand excellence, simplicity and total freedom of pedalling.
Adopting this technology means enjoying exclusive benefits every day:
- No more gear changes: The system manages everything for you.
- Natural pedalling: A smooth, organic feel with no latency.
- Regenerative braking: Recharge your battery by pedalling backwards.
- No mechanical maintenance: No more chains to tighten or derailleurs to adjust.
- Clean and quiet: No grease on your clothes and no noise whatsoever.
- Anti-theft system: Lock and locate via your smartphone.
1. How PERS works
The chainless electric bike works by instantly converting your effort. The energy you generate when pedalling is converted into electricity and sent directly to the motor.
Thanks to the battery power, you can then multiply your power by 5. The principle is simple: the more you pedal, the more power you generate. You can adjust this force via five levels of assistance: Muscular (pure effort), Active, Balanced, Punch or Dynamite (maximum power).
Even if the battery is flat, the energy produced by your own pedalling is transmitted to the motor so you can continue riding to your destination.
2. An intuitive and smooth riding experience
PERS technology redefines your relationship with the road with immediate benefits:
- No more gears: There are no more levers to operate. The system analyses the gradient and your effort to electronically adjust the resistance. Whether you’re tackling a steep hill or riding on flat ground, the bike chooses the perfect ‘gear’ for you. You always maintain the same pedalling cadence, without ever having to change gears yourself.
- Smooth pedalling: The movement is unrivalled in its smoothness, making every ride more enjoyable.
- Instant power: The electric transmission ensures instant motor response from the first pedal stroke.
3. Cleanliness and silence: everyday life without constraints
The absence of physical transmission (chain or belt) transforms the use of your chainless electric bike:
- Silent operation: No more mechanical friction or rattling for a peaceful ride.
- Cleanliness guaranteed: No more lubrication is necessary. You stay spotless, even in a suit, with no risk of grease stains.
- Zero maintenance: No risk of derailment or breakage. It is a sustainable investment with maintenance reduced to a minimum.
4. Regenerative braking
Inspired by electric cars, PERS technology optimises every watt:
- Energy recovery: Simply by pedalling backwards, you activate a smart electromagnetic motor brake. This system converts your kinetic energy into electricity to recharge the battery in real time, giving you up to 20% extra range.
- Precise control and reduced wear: This regenerative braking allows you to slow down smoothly, ideal for tackling a descent or anticipating a stop in town. By putting less strain on the mechanical brakes, you drastically reduce wear on your brake pads and enjoy a more durable and safer braking system.
5. Security and remote updates
Your chainless electric bike becomes a smart, upgradeable piece of technology:
- Anti-theft system: Using the dedicated app, you can instantly lock the PERS system with a simple gesture. Once activated, pedalling becomes electronically impossible, neutralising any attempt at unauthorised use. Your bike thus becomes completely unusable by third parties.
- Geolocation: Built-in GPS connectivity allows you to track the exact location of your chainless electric bike in real time directly on your smartphone. Whether you want to check its location or for added security on a daily basis, you can rest assured.
- Diagnostics and Updates (OTA): Technical diagnostics and software updates are performed remotely (Over The Air). Your bike benefits from the latest optimisations without having to visit the workshop.
