EVOLVE (E-BIKE)
The Pyga Evolve is our gravity-focused E-Bike featuring the energy-efficient I-track suspension platform that provides exceptional grip and handling along with 160mm of buttery smooth suspension travel. It is powered by an 85Nm / 500W Shimano EP8 motor with a 630Wh battery, and manufactured using the best aluminium alloy hydroform tubing, hand rubber formed sheet metal parts, and billet CNC machined fabrication components, all handcrafted and finished right here in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa.
The i-Track patented layout gives us more freedom to achieve our design goals. We are able to achieve a good high ant-squat percentage, while reducing the amount of upper chain growth and in turn, pedal kickback. This allows for a very smooth ride while hammering on the pedals or coasting at high speed. With its Hardened stainless steel 16t idler pulley and thick thin tooth design, it will last for 1000’s of km and helps prevent unwanted chain drops.
If you’re looking for a beautiful, robust Handcrafted bike that makes you faster…..look no further.

HANDCRAFTED DETAILS
Mid-High-Pivot
The Mid-High-Pivot design on the Evolve features the patented i-Track layout which gives us more freedom to achieve our design goals.
The Mid-High-Pivot (or full HP) design necesitates an idler pulley and to that end the Evolve features a 16-tooth, thick/thin, hardened stainless steel idler.
SHIMANO EP8 with 630Wh Battery
Driving the Pyga Evolve is Shimano’s EP8 motor producing 85 Nm of torque and a peak power of 500 watts. The integrated battery is a 630Wh unit and the controls and display are stock standard Shimano too.
rearward axle path
The pivot location on the Evolve facilitates a slightly rearward axle path of (almost 15mm) for the first 5/8ths of rear wheel travel. An 25% progression tune in the kinematics means the bike is air and coil shock compatible.
