What Avinox does
Avinox (legal entity SZ Avinox Innovation Co., Ltd.) is a Shenzhen-headquartered OEM e-bike powertrain supplier that designs, manufactures, and licenses mid-drive motors, batteries, control electronics, and companion software to bicycle brands. Its core offering is the Avinox Drive System—a modular platform spanning three drive-unit generations (M1, M2, M2S with up to 1,500W peak power and 150Nm torque in a 2.59kg package), six Li-ion battery SKUs (integrated FP700/FS800/FS600 and removable RS800/RS600/RS480), three OLED touchscreen displays (DP100, DP100-F, DPC100) with GPS and Apple Find My support, the BC100 wireless controller, and a suite of accessories including GaN-based 508W and 168W chargers and a 1,200 lm front light. Software is delivered through the Avinox Ride mobile app (iOS/Android) and includes Auto mode powered by multi-sensor fusion (IMU, wheel speed, torque, cadence, gear position) and the award-winning Smart Heart Rate Control system, which modulates assist to keep riders in target 50–85% of max heart-rate zones.
The business model is B2B OEM hardware sales: Avinox sells drive systems to 60+ bike brand partners—including Amflow (a DJI sister brand), Canyon, Mondraker, Pivot, Commencal, Atherton, BH, Whyte, ROTWILD, Unno, Forbidden, Megamo, Crestline, and VELO DE VILLE—who integrate them into complete e-bikes sold through their own retail channels. Avinox also co-develops next-generation platforms with selected OEM partners, as demonstrated by the MG Concept Motor unveiled at Eurobike 2026 with Canyon, Commencal, Forbidden, Mondraker, and Megamo. Pricing is not publicly disclosed.
Avinox was founded in 2024 as a subsidiary of drone manufacturer DJI, which provides manufacturing, R&D, and capital backing; the entity became operationally independent in 2025 and now operates from Shenzhen HQ with a European office in Rotterdam. The company's primary customer segment is electric mountain bike (eMTB) manufacturers, with adjacent expansion into eTrekking, eSUV/all-terrain touring, and eGravel categories. End-markets served span China, Europe (Germany, Spain, France, UK, Netherlands), North America, and Australia, supported by Eurobike and Sea Otter trade-show presence, a global dealer locator, and direct consumer engagement through the Avinox Ride app.

Avinox competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- MAHLE SmartBike Systems: MAHLE SmartBike Systems supplies the X35 hub-based lightweight e-bike drive system plus the eX1 rear-hub drive to road, gravel and e-MTB OEMs. Comparable as a German-engineered OEM drive supplier with strong focus on lightweight/road applications adjacent to Avinox's e-trekking/e-gravel positioning.
- Panasonic eBike Systems: Panasonic is a long-standing e-bike drive-system supplier to OEMs including Yamaha and others, with deep battery-cell expertise comparable to Avinox's vertical battery integration. Both companies compete for OEM supply slots in mid- to high-power eMTB and e-trekking categories.
- Brose Drive Systems: Brose (brose e-bike, formerly of automotive heritage) supplies mid-drive e-bike motors to premium OEMs including Specialized. Highly comparable as a tier-1 OEM motor supplier competing head-to-head with Avinox for integration design wins on high-power eMTB platforms.
- Bosch eBike Systems: Bosch eBike Systems is the dominant e-bike drive-system supplier globally, offering mid-drive motors, batteries and connected displays via the eBike Flow app. Directly comparable as the incumbent Avinox is displacing in OEM integrations; both target bicycle OEMs with integrated drive-unit-plus-software ecosystems.
- Shimano STEPS: Shimano STEPS is the long-established Japanese e-bike drive system with deep integration across the cycling ecosystem (gears, components, motors). Comparable to Avinox because both serve premium eMTB and e-trekking OEMs with motor + drivetrain combinations, and because Avinox's SmoothShift feature is explicitly designed to interoperate with Shimano's drivetrains.
- Yamaha PWseries CE: Yamaha is a major e-bike drive-system supplier (PWseries CE, PWseries XO, etc.) with decades of motor engineering. Both Yamaha and Avinox compete for OEM supply slots and target the high-torque eMTB segment; both offer integrated motor-controller-display ecosystems supplied to bike brands.
Direct peers
- Fazua (Porsche eBike Performance): Fazua (acquired by Porsche) makes the Ride 60 and earlier Ride 50 lightweight mid-drive motors with removable drive packs; comparable as a premium OEM drive supplier targeting eMTB and e-gravel lightweight applications, the same niches Avinox targets.
- Bafang M-Series: Bafang is one of China's largest e-bike drive-system manufacturers, offering M200/M510 mid-drive motors plus batteries to global OEMs. Direct peer in mid-drive motor manufacturing for e-bikes, with similar China-based manufacturing footprint but broader product line serving mass-market tiers rather than Avinox's premium positioning.
- TQ eBikes: TQ eBikes is a German premium e-bike drive system maker (HPR50, HPR120) known for light, quiet mid-drive motors favored by lightweight eMTB OEMs such as Trek, Scott and BMC. Direct peer to Avinox in the high-power, lightweight premium eMTB drive segment and competing for the same brand-OEM wallet.
Emerging players
- Polini E-P3: Polini E-P3 (and the E-P3+ MX) is an Italian aftermarket/OEM mid-drive motor focused on performance eMTB conversions. Emerging player targeting the same premium OEM and aftermarket channels as Avinox, with comparable power/torque class and Italian OEM partnerships.
