The NCM Paris MAX has the appearance of a classic folding bike, with modern features to improve the riding experience. Its motor is lightweight and compactly set in the front hub, offering great power and control to the rider while barely noticeable visually; middle drive systems offer greater manoeuvrability over their rear-drive counterparts, greatly reducing the risk of the rear wheel fishtailing, especially in poor weather conditions.

The motor is powered by a 504Wh battery neatly secured under the rear rack, where it makes no aesthetic sacrifices to the classic city bike look, but maintains enough capacity for rides of up 90km—that’s a lot of city to experience on a single charge. With a host of classic practical features, such as a rear cargo rack with bungee cords, mudguards, front and rear lights, and an adjustable stem, the Paris MAX maintains the classic city bike design with a modern riding feel.
