VELLO presents the world's first electric folding bike featuring the new Bosch HubLine drive system

Vienna, Austria

VELLO BIKE

The new VIA+ range of electric folding bikes from VELLO sets a new benchmark in its class.

Vienna, Austria, 2026-06-22 -  Among the most compact and lightweight e-folding bikes on the market, the range combines the performance of a powerful e-bike with the versatility and convenience of a folding bike. Thanks to the new Bosch HubLine motor and specially developed intelligent sensor technology – including an integrated incline sensor – the VIA+ delivers an exceptionally smooth, natural riding experience. At the same time, energy is used with remarkable efficiency, enabling an impressive range even with a compact battery.


With the new VIA+ family, VELLO integrates the Bosch HubLine drive system into a premium electric folding bike for the first time, offering

outstanding value for money. High-quality features include an integrated Supernova lighting system compliant with German

StVZO regulations and hydraulic Shimano disc brakes. The result is an exceptionally lightweight, fully equipped e-bike designed for commuters, travellers, and urban explorers.


The patented VELLO diamond frame, which eliminates the need for a folding hinge in the main frame, gives the VIA+ a stable, direct, and

dynamic ride feel. At the same time, it folds down in seconds for compact storage and easy transport.


The frame is made from double-butted Columbus CroMo steel tubing. As the world's only MTB-certified folding bike, the VIA+ is built not only for everyday urban mobility but also for weekend adventures and light off-road touring.
