leveling up winter adventures with the S-Trax conversion kit 

 

Owners of an electric or standard bike can now transform their two-wheeler into a snowbike thanks to the S-Trax Conversion Kit. Developed by European firm Faster Bikes, the kit is equipped with a ski module that users can install in lieu of the front wheel and a caterpillar module to replace the back wheel. ‘Whether sport or fun – you have the right equipment to explore the snowy landscape. The snowbike offers a comfortable, stable driving experience in the snow and ensures unprecedented winter driving pleasure,’ explains the company. 

 

While the S-Trax Conversion Kit can be installed on different types of two-wheelers, Faster Bikes warns users to avoid setting it up on bikes with carbon frames; the product is solely suitable for aluminum and steel designs. Even more, the front ski module adjusts to bicycles with an installation width of 100 – 150 mm, and the caterpillar module is appropriate for frames with an installation width of 130 – 200 mm.

The team continues: ‘The caterpillar module is equipped with an Enviolo hub gear. The translation of the chainrings was chosen so that both 7 km/h uphill and 25 km/h on level terrain can be ridden with a cadence of 60-70. In addition, the gear ratio can be varied again by selecting the front chainring. The brake disc attached to the drive pinion makes it possible to bring the caterpillar to a complete standstill by actuating the brake. This gives you an excellent braking effect off-road.’ You can learn more about the conversion kit’s technical specifications and even order it online via the company’s website.
