The Evelo Galaxy Lux is a purpose-built cruiser with a clear mission: make riding simple, accessible, and low-maintenance. It’s packed with high-tech components designed to reduce stress and upkeep, and it’s intentionally tailored for riders on the shorter to average side of the height spectrum.
At
its heart is a 600W Bafang mid-drive motor paired with a Gates carbon belt drive and an Enviolo Trekking CVT (continuously variable transmission) that shifts automatically via Enviolo’s AutomatiQ system. Instead of a traditional chain and cassette, you get a sealed transmission with a 380% gear range that delivers seamless, incremental adjustments.
There’s no shifter, no clunky gear jumps, just sensors and software reading the terrain
and your effort, then matching your cadence for a smooth, consistent ride. Operation is as easy as turning it on, choosing your pedal assist level, and rolling away. It’s a setup that works just as well for tech enthusiasts as it does for those getting back in the saddle after years away.
The ride itself leans toward effortless cruising rather than outright speed, but with up to 980W peak power and 105Nm of torque, it’s far from
sluggish. The motor and drivetrain also offer some of the cleanest, lowest-maintenance performance you can get—no chain stretch, no rust, no greasy pant legs, and a sealed hub that can handle thousands of miles with virtually no upkeep necessary.
