The PERS chainless pedaling systems will be launched in December

CIXI has recently announced that its “powerful yet quiet” PERS pedalling systems are close to production. Its Developer Kits are available for clients who want to incorporate chainless technology on new bikes and vehicles, with its limited series of Developer Kits being sent to clients from December and series production planned for May 2025.

CIXI has worked with initial feedback from its clientele over the past few months to ensure its Chainless System brings outstanding pedalling haptics while being as discreet as premium mid-drive motors.

Advanced information about its Developer Kit (which includes all components required for creating a prototype with support from CIXI engineers) can be accessed here.

Collaboration with NNE

The brand has also announced its collaboration with Indian bike manufacturer, NNE, with the integration of its chainless pedalling technology into their newest cargo lightweight and versatile e-bike for everyday use. Read the full story about this partnership.

CIXI showcases pedalling technology in person

CIXI shared its philosophy and its Chainless Pedalling Technology with cycling fans across 6 countries and 11 cities, from Annecy to Copenhagen, with stops at design and innovation centers, public squares and active mobility events.

Its Nomad Tour finished at Eurobike where attendees tested the potential, range and adaptability of CIXI’s Chainless system on various bikes, from regular two-wheelers to light cargo rides, to three-wheeled cargo bikes to heavy four wheeler cargo bikes.

The French makers of patented electronic pedal technology have been recognised with industry honours

CIXI has announced the well-earned achievement of being awarded in the German Design Awards 2024 as Excellent Product Design in the category of Bicycles and E-Bikes.

The GDA jury states:
“The PERS Chainless Pedalling System for all types of e-bikes is an innovative electronic crankset with an automatic transmission that works without a chain and still promises a natural pedaling feeling.”

CIXI’s PERS technology adapts pedal resistance according to the rider’s style, to offer a tailor-made experience. This system does not require great athletic effort to actively travel 20 or 30 km, the electronic crankset system makes active mobility possible and enjoyable for all. CIXI has aimed to remove the geometrical constraints of mechanical transmission, making the PERS a versatile and competitive product able to fit diverse architectures and applications, from regular and cargo bikes to high-speed vehicles.

CIXI’s design team was also honored with the 2023 Lapiz de Acero Award for the ROVER 45 concept bicycle design in collaboration with LOOK Cycle. One of 66 winners across a variety of outstanding design, as one of the first concrete applications of chainless urban speed pedelec bicycle technology, the ROVER 45 reveals other possibilities in creating new types of vehicles.

CIXI was further delighted to be named one of the winners of STMicroelectronics France’s 1st edition of its ST for Startups – Sustainability Challenge France.
