This makes the KOBRA V1.2 not only a fantastic fatbike with a sublime riding experience, but also a trusted choice for Dutch cyclists who value safety and compliance.
ILT-Tested and Compliant
The unexpected ILT test demonstrates once again that the KOBRA V1.2 meets the requirements for electric bicycles under Dutch law. The KOBRA is equipped with a 250w motor and a maximum speed of 25 km/h with pedal assistance and walk assist up to 6 km/h.

The KOBRA V1.2 has not only been ILT-tested for its compliance with legislation but also excels in design and technology. With a thorough facelift compared to its predecessor, the V1 Fatbike, the V1.2 offers an improved riding experience and comfort thanks to innovative technologies. Manual shifting is a thing of the past thanks to the new torque drive mechanism, which ensures effortless acceleration and a sublime riding feel. Meanwhile, the updated design, including an improved rear light and a waterproof saddle, adds aesthetic refinement to the overall look.

Powerful Drive and Long Range
The KOBRA V1.2 is powered by a powerful 250W electric motor, which provides a unique and smooth riding experience. This motor complies with EU and Dutch regulations, as confirmed by the ILT (Inspection and Inspection Service). Thanks to the impressive 768Wh Li-ion battery, the Fatbike offers a range of up to 140 km in ECO mode, allowing for worry-free long rides.

In addition to its technical specifications and legal compliance, the KOBRA V1.2 also offers optimal riding comfort and functionality. With adjustable suspension, a spacious saddle with the iconic HoneyComb pattern, and fold-out footrests, the fatbike is suitable not only for individual use but also for comfortably transporting two people.
