The Classic
ABOUT THE BIKE
The Christiania is a classic in Cycling Without Age. When founder Ole Kassow started the organization in 2012 he used an old rented, de-commissioned Christiania. The model had gone out of production, but the blacksmith was intrigued by the idea of using the trishaw as a social tool and was easily talked into re-starting the production of their old model. Cycling Without Age helped Christiania introduce several improvements making it more elderly-friendly. Such features as a lowerable footrest, softer cushions, and a chat window were developed by local Cycling Without Age affiliates and inspired Christiania to improve their model.
FUNCTIONALITY AND DETAILS
The Christiania is a sturdy and dependable trishaw that blends tradition with modern updates. Its spacious passenger seat measures 74 cm in width and offers a comfortable ride for two. The electric motor has 250 watts of power with four assist levels, delivering a smooth and steady experience with 40 Nm of torque. Riders benefit from walk assist up to 6 km/h, activated by throttle. With a total length of 237 cm, a width of 99 cm, and a height of 110 cm, the bike is easy to maneuver yet offers plenty of room. The hydraulic disc brake on the 26” wheel ensures safe stopping. Weighing 59 kg, it can carry a total of 319 kg, with up to 160 kg in the front box. The battery is a 36V 13.6 Ah Li-ion model, delivering 490 Wh for dependable power over long distances.

FAQ
How long does it take to charge the battery?
The battery charges fully in 4 hours. You don’t have to charge the battery after every use. Your battery should be charged at least once every 6 months.
How far is the range on the bike?
Your range depends on how much you use the battery. A ride with hills and maximum capacity in very cold or hot weather, will drain the battery quicker than moderate use in flat terrain. On average, one fully charged battery will be enough for a 4 hour ride. Consider buying an extra battery in case you want to be out for longer.
