Description

The "Diamant Zouma Supreme" is an e-bike with support up to 45 km/h. Its accumulator is mounted on the carrier. The counterpart of the e-bike is the conventional trekking bike "Diamant Ubari". Because it looks similar to the "Diamant Zouma Supreme", it is suitable for comparisons of both bike types.
