ECONO Apes CITY 28 EER3 (2026) Electric City Bike
The perfect combination of comfort, reliability and affordable e-mobility for city centers.

Who is the ECONO Apes CITY 28 EER3 best suited for?
The Apes CITY EER3 model is the ideal choice for riders looking for a reliable and comfortable means of transport for daily city errands or relaxed trips on paved paths. With its low-step frame (Low-step), it allows for extremely easy mounting and dismounting, which will be appreciated by anyone who values safety and practicality. If you need a bike that combines Slovenian battery development with proven components, the EER3 is your ticket to the world of effortless cycling.

Powerful Bafang H305 Rear Hub Drive
The heart of the bike is a robust Bafang H305 rear motor with 250 W of power and 50 Nm of torque. The motor works in combination with a cadence sensor (speed sensor), meaning that assistance kicks in as soon as it detects pedaling. This system provides a natural pushing sensation that will make conquering city hills and headwinds easy, with the speed electronically limited to up to 25 km/h in accordance with legislation.

Slovenian Comtron ELK 520 Battery
The EER3 is equipped with an ECONO Comtron ELK 520 battery with a capacity of 520 Wh (15 Ah) at 36V. The batteries are developed and assembled in Slovenia, ensuring the highest level of quality control. The energy density is optimized for city use, offering an excellent range while keeping the bike's weight low. The battery is easily removable and can be charged directly on the bike or indoors using the included 2A charger.

Differences between EER3, EER4, and EER5 models
The Apes CITY series offers three levels of equipment tailored to your needs:
- EER3 (Entry-level model): Mechanical disc brakes Tektro M280, H305 motor with cadence sensor, and a fixed 520 Wh battery.
- EER4 (Mid-range): Upgrade to hydraulic brakes, SR Suntour NEX-E25 fork, and the option to choose larger batteries (700 Wh or 800 Wh).
- EER5 (SUV version): The most powerful version featuring a torque sensor for a more responsive ride, a sportier posture, Schwalbe Land Cruiser gravel tires, and a 4A fast charger option for larger batteries.

Clear Bafang DP C080 Color Display
All key details about your ride are gathered on the compact side-mounted color display Bafang DP C080. Easily switch between 5 assistance levels: ECO, TOUR, SPORT, SPORT+, and BOOST. The display is crystal clear even in direct sunlight, showing current speed, distance traveled, and battery charge status.

Comfort in Every Meter
A smooth transition over city curbs and uneven bike paths is ensured by the XHF suspension fork with 100 mm of travel. Additional comfort is provided by ergonomic Velo VLG-1505 grips, a wide Velo VL-6574 saddle, and an adjustable handlebar stem that allows you to set a fully upright and relaxed posture, reducing back strain.

Premium Grip with Schwalbe Energizer Tires
The bike is fitted with Schwalbe ENERGIZER ACTIVE PLUS (28x2.0) tires, which are specifically developed for e-bikes. They feature low rolling resistance, excellent cornering grip, and advanced PunctureGuard puncture protection. With a width of 50 mm, they provide additional stability and safety on wet city streets.
