SPEEDING DOWN AN ACTIVE VOLCANO ON AN ELECTRIC BIKE - WILL I MAKE IT?

EV Channels Review

This video chronicles an exhilarating adventure across Sicily, featuring NOKO electric bikes, with a particular focus on the NOKOMAGMA gravel bike ridden on Mount Etna. The reviewer highlights the NOKOMAGMA's impressive performance on volcanic terrain, noting its lightweight carbon frame, integrated battery, and the unique gravel-specific Shimano GRX groupset. While initially challenging on the loose volcanic ash, the bike's electric assist and grippy tires proved adept at both descents and ascents, even allowing the riders to keep pace with analog cyclists. The review also touches upon the NOKOBLAZE and NOKOFORZA models, praising their respective strengths in different environments. Overall, the editorial team was impressed by NOKO's componentry, build quality, and the evident passion for cycling integrated into their designs, despite the higher price point compared to some competitors.
