The new FLX+, the belt drive from Phatfour
The belt drive is based on the FLX, the best fat bike of 2023, but with a belt drivetrain instead of a chain.
A big advantage of a belt driveline is that it requires little maintenance. For example, it does not need to be cleaned or lubricated regularly. Less maintenance means less costs and more time for cycling.
The service life of a belt drivetrain is up to 3x longer than a traditional chain drivetrain, saving costs in replacing parts.
In addition, with a belt drivetrain you will never again suffer from oil or lubricant on your clothes.
2 Speed motor
The FLX+ is equipped with a 2 speed motor that shifts automatically to a higher gear at 17 km/h. This makes driving away from a stand still position even easier and more direct due to the lighter gearing you use up to 17 km/h.
With the 2 speed motor you always have the most optimal cadence to pedal with, which benefits the range. Driving up hills is also easier due to the 2 speed motor.
Exclusive paerlescent / metallic powder coating
The FLX+ has a high quality 3 layer protection system of the frame where the last layer is a high gloss transparent powder coating to enhance the pearlescent/metallic effect.
The FLX+ is available in two exclusive colors, mouse gray and emerald blue. The emerald blue version has exclusive white rims.
Carefree on the road
With a range up to 100 km and a specious two seater saddle, the FLX+ is perfect for long trips.
The display shows both current and average consumption and has a special range indicator.
This way you always know how much kilometers you can still ride, even taking the weather conditions into account.
Safety
Just like the FLX, the FLX+ has an eyelet on the frame to attach an extra lock preventing theft of your battery.
The frame number is not only visible on the frame, but is also integrated in the electronics of the bike. As a result, the frame number cannot be removed which makes it more difficult to sell a stolen bike. This also applies to various other parts on the bike.
Optional is the installation of a GPS tracker to easily track and trace the FLX in the event of theft.
