Smart OEM Planning: 5 Things to Decide Early
If you're developing your own lightweight e-bike, here’s what to finalize before prototyping:
-
Frame style & material: Step-through? Folding? Hydroformed alloy or carbon blend?
-
Motor specs: Front or rear hub? EU max power compliance?
-
Battery placement: Integrated vs removable, under saddle vs down tube
-
Display system: Minimalist LED vs smart LCD
-
Branding touchpoints: Frame printing, packaging, manuals, digital assets
At Jobo EV, we help you define and document each of these from day one—so your OEM product isn’t just light in weight, but heavy in market appeal.
