Pure nature with camping and your Pendix-Bike

To spend the holiday in your own four walls sounds boring at first. But if the home is mobile and therefore different holiday destinations can be reached, it sounds quite different. More and more people are discovering the advantages of camping holidays. This is also shown by the constantly increasing number of motorhomes. In 2019, the vehicle population reached a new record level of 533,000 vehicles. For many people, a holiday in nature is a balance to work, allowing them to switch off and recharge their batteries. In combination with a pedelec, nothing stands in the way of relaxed excursions and the stress of everyday life is quickly forgotten through exercise in the fresh air. Your existing bike can also be turned into a pedelec with the Pendix retrofit drive, which has many advantages.

Advantages of Pendix in your camping holiday

Whether on the Baltic Sea, in the Bavarian Alps or on the Moselle, Germany offers a suitable destination for every outdoor enthusiast. If you still have your own bicycle in your luggage, this increases the mobility on site and nothing stands in the way of a varied and nature-loving holiday. Compared to rented bikes or pedelecs, you are familiar with your own bike and have the right equipment for it. With the Pendix eDrive you can turn it into a pedelec in no time at all. A big advantage for transport: you don't have to buy new equipment to recharge your bike.

Especially for holidays the Pendix eDrive offers further advantages:

The weight

Depending on the battery size, the weight of your bike will increase by 5.4 to 6.9 kg after installation of the Pendix system. This system weight results mainly from the motor and battery. The battery can be removed very easily with one hand movement, so that you only have to lift the 4 kg weight of the motor when loading the bike. Compared to ordinary e-bikes, which sometimes weigh between 25 and 30 kg, your light bike can also be turned into a light pedelec.

The processing

The Pendix eDrive is a very robust, reliable and smart system. Your reliable travel companion consists of the most necessary components, all of which are protected from wind and weather. The system is maintenance free and updates can be done by yourself with the mobile phone app Pendix.bike PRO.

A bicycle remains a bicycle

You decide yourself when you want to be supported and when you want to ride your bike normally. When switched off there is no pedalling resistance. The pendix can be easily activated by turning the knob on the battery and the desired level of support can be selected.

The right pedelec for day trips and city trips

Whether you are one of those motorhome holidaymakers who travel to a new location every day or the one who spends his holidays at the campsite. Once you have arrived, unpacked everything and made yourself comfortable, you will want to leave your vehicle for a while and still explore the immediate and wider surroundings. No matter if you own a trekking, city or mountain bike, almost all types of bikes can be retrofitted with the Pendix eDrive, so in the future you will be able to combine bike and pedelec in one bike.

The folding bike is very popular among camping friends.  It is small, compact, light and offers the great advantage of transport without the need to mount a bicycle holder. For folding bikes we have a special drive system in our assortment, with which the folding mechanism of the bike is retained in many models. Especially the high quality folding bikes of Brompton can be retrofitted with the Pendix eDrive folding bike. But also models of the brands Dahon and Tern can be upgraded to a powerful e-folding bike with Pendix.
