EDITOR HYBRID SLT 400X

Appearances can be deceptive. Beneath the Editor Hybrid SLT 400X’s understated, clean lines lurks a sophisticated modern transport solution with your name written all over it. Featuring a built-in 400Wh battery and mini controller for the lightweight Bosch SX drive unit, we chose a low-maintenance, clean Gates belt drive and Shimano’s 11-speed Alfine hub gears for the ultimate in get-on-and-go ease of use. Powerful Shimano Deore hydraulic disc brakes give you all the stopping power you need in any weather, delivered to the road via Schwalbe’s wide, grippy and fast-rolling Marathon Efficiency Evo 50mm tyres. With the lightweight full carbon fork, it’s practically an e-bike superhero in disguise.

Frame description
Its looks are familiar, but the Editor Hybrid’s Trapeze frame is full of unfamiliar clever touches. The lightweight, durable aluminium frame makes use of Smooth Welding at the main tube joints – so it has a clean, almost organic appearance. Cables are fully integrated to complement the uncluttered aesthetic, and we placed the 400Wh battery unobtrusively in the down tube and incorporated the mini controller in the top tube. Meanwhile the full carbon fork is light, strong and suits the frame’s pared-back aesthetic. It’s ready for the urban jungle.
