Galva, ECAL X DECATHLON

Data collected* by DECATHLON show that steel is far less polluting than aluminum in almost every aspect of bicycle production. Yet most e-bike frames today are made from aluminum. Based on this observation, Galva offers a galvanized steel frame in which the battery is integrated and protected. To limit excess weight, the frame uses a minimum of materials while retaining its strength. Production is based mainly on tube stamping and bending, cold processes that consume less energy. Galvanizing the steel also provides a durable coating, guaranteeing the frame's longevity.
