Schindelhauer has made a name for themselves creating modern bikes with classic proportions. They’re strong proponents of the belt drive system that offers low noise and zero maintenance, making Schindelhauer bikes even more irresistible for riders that have experienced the horrors of chain grease on their clothes. The Schindelhauer Jacob takes things further by adding smart connectivity to their design, offering a great bike for riding in the urban environment.
The integrated COBI interface assures that your Jacob stays connected, whether you’re on a scenic ride through the countryside or on your daily commute in the city. In short, it’s a smart system that turns your Jacob into a SmartBike, allowing you to control over over 100 functions, including GPS navigation, active light control, theft-protection, and access to individual fitness data. The super-light hub dynamo, along with COBI’s integrated battery are sure to keep the smartphone running.
Performance wise, Jacob uses the revolutionary Carbon Drive Technology made and developed by Gates and sports hydraulic disc-brakes by Formula. For those purists that want their bikes to be unadulterated by smart technology, there’s also a version available without the COBI system, but with supernova front lighting and LightSkin seatpost.
