Hydrofoiler SL3 Tech Specs
HALF BIKE. HALF PLANE.
A radical evolution in cycling
Ride duration
The longest ride duration of any electric foiling product on the market.
Speed
Speeds vary based on ride conditions, rider weight & ability
Coming soon: Speed foil & propeller targeting increases to top end speed
Top-end speed: 20 kph | 12 mph
Cruising speed: 11 kph | 7 mph
Minimum speed: 6 kph | 4 mph
Chop and swell capabilities
Handles rolling swell and choppy conditions. The SL3 ‘slices’ through tougher conditions than conventional SUPs, kayaks and most personal watercraft.
Hire market durability
New hardwearing monocoque chassis, a new robust drivetrain and fully sealed gearboxes are designed with commercial hire operators in mind.
Transport
The Hydrofoiler SL3 features quick connection parts that breaks the bike into 5 sub-assemblies. Transport in car and carry to the water by hand.
Maintenance
Ultra low maintenance, no high wear drive components like on most bicycles.
Simple hose wash down after salt water riding.
Access for servicing/replacing modules requires less tools. Further modularity built in to sub-assemblies for affordable repair – when a fault occurs the replacement is of the affected module, not the whole assembly.
