One of the highlights of the e-motorcycle is that lightweight concept. The MC 10 brings just once without batteries 90 kg on the scales. It also has room for one or two Lithium battery packs, each with 72 volts and 30 Ah come along and are cleverly hidden in the aluminum bridge frame. Depending on the number of batteries installed, you can use a range from 60 to 120 kilometers calculate. Depending on the selected charging current (10 A or optionally 15 A), it takes between three and six hours.

Impressive design meets top equipment

The dynamics of the electric motorcycle is driven by the chain drive for the rear wheel and that Torque of up to 280 Nm, which acts directly on the rear tire. The MC 10 shows itself from its best side not only in terms of speed, but also in terms of its agility. However Tromox hasn't just with regard to that Performance thought along. At a top speed of 90 km/h, braking is of course also essential.

Here the MC 10 relies on one disc brake per wheel, supported by a compound braking system (CBS). A Optional ABS available provides additional safety and for off-road fans it is particularly interesting that the MC 10 can be used on narrow wire wheels comes with chunky tires (80/100-19 front and 90/90-18 rear). along with the Upside down telescopic fork front and the Aluminum double swing arm rear, it is well equipped for off-road driving, even if the Seat height of 870 mm more reminiscent of a hard enduro.

The Tromox MC 10 not only impresses with impressive technology, but also with modern equipment. LED lights, Aluminum tubular handlebars, radio key system , and a digital cockpit with a smartphone connection bear witness to the well thought-out design. A slower also ensures comfortable maneuvering reverse gear. While it is already available in countries like South Africa and is offered there for the equivalent of around EUR 9.000 (as of August 2023), it remains to be seen when (if) it will conquer the European market.
