Is the electric single-speed bike a straightforward trendsetter?

When it comes to single-speed e-bikes (fixie single-speed), the trend could probably be best explained with the words " back to the roots ". E-bikes are not only available with a variety of gears, but also without any at all - and this design is the simplest, original form of all bikes on the market.





There is no doubt that this brings with it some special features in terms of handling and riding behavior, because an electric single-speed bike (fixie bike) cannot be compared to a trekking or city bike . However, you should know exactly what distinguishes the electric single-speed bike from models with gears at MYVELO and whether this e-bike variant is suitable for you. We will present all the important information in more detail below.

Buying a singlespeed bike made easy

The single-speed e-bike (fixie single-speed), which is often also referred to as a fixed gear bike, is an e-bike that does not require any gears (fixed gear).

A special type of single speed is the Fixie E-Bike (Singlespeed Fixie), which has a fixed gear (Fixie Singlespeed, fixed gear). At myvélo you will increasingly find a variety of Fixies and Singlespeeds in simple and exclusive designs and different variants.

Now that single-speed e-bikes and fixies have clearly established themselves on the bicycle market, more and more sporty e-bike versions are appearing on the market. We at MYVELO also focus on sporty accents and install our powerful electric motors in such a way that an electric single-speed bike can hardly be distinguished from a normal single-speed bike.

Practical features of an electric single speed

What makes an electric single-speed bike so special? Quite simply - only one gear means:

- less maintenance effort
- lower noise level
- less maintenance effort
- lower weight
- more design
- with belt drive

With MYVELO's innovatively designed electric drive systems, both starting on mountainous sections and a quick sprint through the city are no problem on an electric single speed. Because whenever you would actually shift up or down a gear, the electric motor provides the appropriate support and gives you the feeling of almost floating on the bike.




E-bike single speed or gears - what are the advantages?

If you are wondering whether you should buy an electric single-speed bike or fixie bike or a model with gears before buying an e-bike, it is important to know the individual advantages and disadvantages.

One thing is certain: electric single-speed bikes (single-speed fixies) have a number of advantages. If you want to use your bike primarily in the city, where the terrain is largely flat, an electric single-speed or fixie (fixie bike) is exactly the right choice. Here you do without gears and the weight of the bike is significantly reduced compared to the usual bikes or racing bikes .

In addition, there is no need for any time-consuming maintenance or cleaning work - an electric single-speed or fixie bike is usually so simple to construct that you can simply wipe dirt off all components.

Singlespeed E-Bike – the stylish companion in everyday life

But functionality is not the only advantage that a single-speed e-bike can offer you. Our MYVELO models will impress you above all with their unique style - because individuality is becoming increasingly important on the roads.

If you like a clean, minimalist look without any extras, a single-speed e-bike is the perfect choice for everyday urban use. We also do without other components on some models to make the look even more minimalist and chic. Handlebar tape or spoke-poor wheels optimize the look of our bikes and make them a functional and stylish companion for you - in every situation.

What disadvantages can a single-speed e-bike have?

Despite all the advantages mentioned, a single-speed e-bike (single-speed fixie), like any other type of bike, has a few disadvantages - one to be precise. The lack of gears makes the ride uphill a little more strenuous and it is less suitable for rides through hilly landscapes.

If you don't use a chain tensioner on your single speed, the chain elongation will always need to be compensated. This can be achieved, for example, by adjusting the bottom bracket or the position of the rear wheel. It may also be necessary to readjust the rear brake.

Of course, things are different with an e-bike with gears: Here you can always adjust the gear to the current route profile so that you don't have to exert yourself too much and the focus is on riding comfort. Our city and trekking e-bikes come with a high-quality Shimano gear system as standard - if you don't want to do without this comfort, we recommend one of our lifestyle pedelecs , for example.

This is what you should consider before buying a singlespeed bike

You also have to take into account that the road safety is not as high as with a modern city bike with full equipment due to the lack of gears - and possibly also the lack of brakes (only on some fixies).

We therefore recommend that you buy an electric single-speed bike, especially if you know about the technical finesse or already have some experience with a single-speed bike - after all, the most important thing is the fun of riding, which will definitely not be neglected with the models of the MYVELO e-bike brand !

E-bike single speed or gears?

There is the right model for everyone. No matter whether you choose a single-speed or geared e-bike, MYVELO has a wide range of different exclusive electric bikes for you. From high-quality city and trekking bikes with full equipment to minimalist single-speed bikes (fixie bikes), you can find the right model for you with us.

The most important thing to consider before buying is to ask yourself what you want to use your bike for. Accordingly, a single-speed e-bike (single-speed fixie) or geared bike may be better suited to getting you around the city or the countryside effortlessly every day.

Further information and frequently asked questions zu Single speed e-bike

The most important information practically summarized in our FAQ

Singlespeed bikes, also called fixies, are bicycles with one gear. They can be ridden in freewheel mode or with a fixed gear. The frames are similar to those of a racing bike and are often made of steel.

The gear ratio of a single-speed bike consists of the combination of chainring and pinion. For sporty bikes, a large chainring with a small pinion is chosen so that the gear ratio runs smoothly.

Fixie stands for fixed gear. This means that the bike has a fixed gear and no gears. Fixie bikes are particularly light and can be ridden in a very sporty manner thanks to their design.

With a single speed you can travel quickly and can reach speeds of up to 35 km/h. Usually the speeds stay a little lower because the light wheels can sway a little in strong winds. For many riders, a speed of around 25 km/h is therefore more comfortable and offers plenty of riding fun. In addition, at higher speeds you have to comply with certain approvals that are not necessary below 25 km/h.
