No discrete 'speeds'
Because the hub is stepless, Enviolo has no fixed number of speeds; the configurator's '0' reflects this continuous ratio rather than a countable number of positions.
Closed: Tuesday 27 October through Sunday 1 November. Please note: the workshop is from now on also closed on Thursdays.

One official studio photo (non-lifestyle) of an Enviolo CVP hub found on enviolo.com/products/ (the 'Utility' model); the source URL in this JSON entry (support.enviolo.com CVP spec page) is a generic spec table for all CVP hubs with no photo gallery of its own, so the image comes from enviolo.com's products page rather than the specific support URL. Other hub variants (City, Extreme, Heavy Duty, Trekking, Urban) have comparable official studio photos but were excluded since the configurator does not pin down a specific Enviolo model.
Why it matters
The configurator estimate is not a quotation. Thomas confirms price, specification and availability.

Everything you need to know about the Enviolo Enviolo traploos + riem
How the component works, which specifications matter and what to watch for when choosing. From the basics to the details real bike nerds care about.
Urban hub weight2.180 kg
Lower weight helps on climbs and repeated accelerations. For flat rides, commuting and carrying loads, comfort, durability and aerodynamics often matter more than a few grams. Frame, wheelset and complete-bike weights are not directly comparable.
Average ratio range256%
A wider gear range can combine climbing or carrying loads with speed on flats. Range percentage does not specify gear steps or the absolute lowest gear. Compare chainring and cassette or hub ratios as well.
Max. speed250 RPM
Motor position and system affect ride feel, servicing and loaded starts. For everyday transport, dependable assistance and service often matter more than peak figures. Range depends on load, route, weather and assistance mode.
IP classificationHub IP65, freewheel IP54
Moisture and impact protection help daily use, but a protection rating does not make every use safe. Follow cleaning and use instructions; avoid pressure washing unless explicitly allowed.
Brake options6-bolt disc, max. 180 mm rotor
Hydraulic disc brakes can provide strong, controllable braking, especially in rain and descents. Rim brakes require a suitable frame and braking surface. For loads and long descents, consider the complete brake, rotor, mounting and heat-management combination.
