Battery Tech Explained
One of the biggest questions riders ask about the new Amflow PX is simple: why does it use a 700Wh battery when many other bikes use 800Wh?
On paper, a bigger battery sounds better. But with the Amflow PX, the answer is more interesting than just battery size. The PX has been designed around a new high-density battery system that prioritises power delivery, efficiency, weight and performance — not just a bigger number on a spec sheet.
That means the question is not just “How big is the battery?” but also “How well can the battery deliver power?”
The Amflow PX uses a custom 700Wh integrated battery with an energy density of 220Wh/kg. That is one of the key reasons the bike stays in the 20kg class while still supporting very high motor output and long ride range.
In contrast, the Amflow PR range uses a larger 800Wh removable battery. That gives the PR more raw capacity and removable convenience, but it also adds weight and changes the priorities of the bike.
The Amflow PX doesn’t just have a powerful motor — it is one of the few bikes currently available that can fully sustain that performance. That translates into stronger, more consistent assistance on long climbs and under heavy load, not just short bursts of power.
The Avinox system is designed so that the battery directly affects motor performance. To deliver full 1500W output from the M2S motor, it must be paired with the newer high-density 700Wh battery platform.
Many larger-capacity battery systems simply cannot sustain this level of output, which is why they are often limited to lower continuous power — even when using the same motor.
One of the biggest misconceptions right now is that a larger battery automatically means better performance. In reality, the type of battery and how it integrates with the motor system matters far more.
Many bikes currently on the market are using older 800Wh internal battery designs paired with newer high-output motors. While this sounds impressive on paper, these systems can actually limit how much power the motor can sustain.
The Amflow PX, along with a very small number of cutting-edge platforms, uses a new-generation high-density battery system specifically designed to unlock the full potential of the M2S motor.
One of the biggest differences is that Avinox has not simply used off-the-shelf battery cells. Instead, the PX battery is built around a new-generation cell design developed to improve packaging, energy density and discharge performance.
This larger-format cell technology allows:
The result is a slimmer, lighter battery that can still deliver extremely high output and fast charging performance.
Riders often compare bikes by battery size alone, but battery capacity is only one part of the picture.
So while 800Wh may sound better in isolation, a better-designed 700Wh system can deliver a more impressive real-world ride experience.
The PX is the platform built to fully exploit the M2S motor, while the PR range balances performance with removable battery practicality and value.
The PX battery also supports extremely fast charging, helping offset concerns about having “only” 700Wh on paper.
That means riders are not just looking at capacity, but how quickly they can recharge and get back out riding — a major real-world advantage.
For most riders, yes. And for longer rides, the PX is compatible with a 600Wh range extender depending on frame size.
So you get a lighter, more advanced battery as standard, with the option to extend range when needed.
The result is a bike that feels noticeably more responsive, more refined and more performance-focused on the trail.
The Amflow PX 700Wh battery is not about giving riders less — it is about delivering a smarter, lighter and more advanced system that performs better where it matters.
