Spiny 2 friction-drive kit snaps onto bike to add electric assist
Why it matters for readers: Offers a convenient method to try electric assist on a favorite bike without permanent changes.
- Spiny 2 is a second-generation removable friction-drive e-bike kit that combines motor and battery in a 2.2 kg package.1
- After initial installation of mounting hardware and sensors, the drive unit can be clicked into place before a ride and removed afterward in about three seconds.1
- The kit uses a friction drive rather than replacing a wheel or integrating into the drivetrain.1
- The campaign is on Kickstarter and Electrek did not independently test the product, but the brand previously delivered hundreds of units of its earlier kit.1
