KrossEvado Hybrid
e-city
01
Origin
The Evado Hybrid extends the Evado city/crossover line into the e-bike era. Kross chose to use Shimano Steps E6110 rather than a hub motor, giving the Evado Hybrid a balanced weight distribution and natural pedalling feel vs. rear-hub alternatives at similar price. The RockShox fork on the 6.0 is an upgrade over the SR Suntour found on non-electric Evado models, acknowledging that urban riders value comfort on rough bike infrastructure.
