Technology
OCL+ Frame Joint
Robust folding technology
A heavy-duty update to our iconic OCL frame hinge, the OCL+ is built to exceed ISO 4210 and EN 15194 testing requirements. Leveraging the hinge design of the long-tail Tern Cargo Node, the OCL+ features a single-shaft design, advanced welding techniques, and robust gussets, so it stays stiff and strong during even the fastest commutes.
Andros Stem
Adjust to fit
The Andros is our patented adjustable stem that lets you set your handlebars where you want—no tools, no fuss. In just seconds, you can set your riding position to long and low in a tough headwind, or upright and comfy for riding around town. You decide how you want to ride and the Andros makes your bike fit.
Magura® MT4 Hydraulic Disc Brakes
FREINS PUISSANTS
Hydraulic disc brakes give you excellent stopping power, working effortlessly even in rain, snow, or mud. All it takes is the gentle pull of just two fingers. With mineral oil-based brake fluid that is gentler on the environment than most hydraulic brake fluids, and Magura's Easy Bleed Technology, your Vektron is ready for a safer ride.
Bosch® Performance Drive Unit
Power Trip
Electric bikes make it easy to ride from A to B. Where it gets interesting? When you’re inspired to visit the rest of the alphabet. The Bosch Performance Drive Unit offers a fine-tuned balance between torque and range. It takes the burden out of hauling kids and groceries. With up to 100 km of range with a standard 400 Wh battery, it’s the market leader in ebike technology.
Bosch® PowerPack Battery
Feather-light powerhouse
This impressive high-energy, high-power cell clips on and off your bike. The best-in-class design charges fast—from zero—in only 2.5 to 3.5 hours, and lets you ride longer and further between charges. You’ll be impressed by its long lifespan, light weight, and ease of charging. PowerPacks are available in 300/400/500 Wh variants, so you can forget about range anxiety.
Bosch Purion Control Panel
COMPACT CONTROL CENTER
The on-board computer lets you switch between five different riding modes, and feeds you handy information like speed, battery level, and distance. It optimizes shifting actions and constantly updates you on the remaining range, just like a typical German car. Best of all, it’s now more compact and robust than ever.
Atlas V Rack
AN ULTRA-ROBUST RACK WITH GSDna
With structural cues from the heavy-duty Tern GSD, the new Atlas V Rack has been massively strengthened and increased in size, with a load capacity of 27 kg (59 lb). This reduces flex for more secure handling when the bike is loaded. Riding with your little one? Add a Thule Yepp Maxi or Dash® RM child seat—no adapters needed. The Atlas V Rack is also KLICKfix-compatible, and can hold panniers of different sizes—including the Bucketload Pannier, which was designed to fit every configuration of the Vektron.
