Most mid-drive electric bicycles start at a minimum of $3,000,<\/a> with the price increasingly steeply<\/a> from there. <\/p>\n They become even more expensive when they include a torque sensor, which is a more sophisticated way to engage the electric pedal assist to result in more natural assistance that better mimics human input.<\/p>\n We\u2019ve occasionally seen more affordable mid-drive electric bike options<\/a> that employ lesser-known Chinese motors without torque sensors, but they\u2019re the exception to the rule. <\/p>\n The newly unveiled EUNORAU D6 looks to present a mid-drive road-style electric bike at a surprisingly affordable promotional price of $1,199<\/a>. That\u2019s even lower than most of the go-to hub motor e-bikes<\/a> on the market right now.<\/p>\n We are still learning more about the upcoming EUNORAU D6, and at this point, most of our information comes from the bike\u2019s pre-launch page on Indiegogo<\/a>. <\/p>\n A few early images we\u2019ve been able to obtain show both flat bar and drop bar options on the electric road bike.<\/p>\n The new model is listed as sporting a 60 Nm motor, though the power level isn\u2019t advertised yet. That 60 Nm of torque likely puts it in the mid-power range, with more power than most of the base level 250W motors. However, it will still likely come with a \u201c250W nominal\u201d rating to keep it street legal in countries that limit e-bikes to 250W of power.<\/p>\n The bike\u2019s motor looks to drive an 11-speed cassette on the rear wheel, with the bike itself rocking 700c tires.<\/p>\n Other components that are easy to spot in the limited images include mechanical disc brakes and a frame-integrated removable battery. There\u2019s no word yet on the battery capacity, but the size would suggest it likely falls in the 300-400 Wh range.<\/p>\n The D6\u2019s range is listed as 50 km (31 miles) and the bike weighs in at 18 kg (39 lb).<\/p>\n There will also be an accompanying smartphone app that includes features such as Calorie consumption, trip records, social networking, and over-the-air (OTA) updates. <\/p>\n The company also says that the D6 will come in \u201ca wide range of sizes & color options so everyone \u2013 no matter your gender or body type \u2013 can ride a bike that fits and feels amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n EUNORAU describes the D6 as being designed for both pavement and gravel, meaning the company is likely targeting the gravel e-biking sector<\/a> as well.<\/p>\n Images from the page show a closeup of the bike\u2019s welds, revealing nicely filleted joints normally seen on bikes with higher attention to detail, such as those from e-bike company Aventon.<\/a><\/p>\n A short teaser video showing the D6 can be seen below. <\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/d6-astro-turf.jpeg?quality=82&strip=all&w=1000\" "\\"New")
