There is something magical about winter riding. The crisp air on cheeks. The sparkle of snow crystals in the sun. The quiet sound of tires rolling over fresh powder. The quiet feeling when the world is wrapped in white silence. Just as riders switch to warm gloves, winter jackets, and studded tires, e-bikes and drive systems also need to adapt to colder temperatures. PREETO mid-drive systems are engineered to perform brilliantly when temperatures drop. Whether it’s a sunny cold morning, a snowy forest trail, or the daily commute through slush the PREETO e-drive system helps riders enjoy every winter ride with strength, control and reliability.

Strong performance, even in freezing temperatures
E-drive systems lose power in the cold. PREETO has optimized the magnetic design and added smart low-temperature compensation to ensure smooth, consistent power, even below freezing. Whether riders are climbing snowy hills or pushing into icy headwinds, the output stays responsive and strong, so nothing interrupts the winter adventure.
Stable, predictable control on snow & ice
Winter roads can be unpredictable, with ice, packed snow, slush, and frozen gravel. PREETO’s high-precision torque sensor delivers natural and linear assist without sudden surges, improving traction and smoothness. And with anti-rollback support during steep or slippery starts, riders stay in control, even in stop-and-go traffic or on frozen trails.
Built for real all-weather riding
Snow, salt and moisture are tough on technology. PREETO systems are engineered with high-grade sealing, corrosion-resistant materials and long-cycle winter testing, ensuring reliability from the coldest valley morning to high-mountain trails.
Smart modes that adapt to the ride
Winter demands more gear, more energy. This is why it is helpful to maintain flexible layering and select suitable riding modes.
PREETO’s intelligent riding modes automatically adjust support:
- AUTO for mixed surfaces,
- ECO and TOUR for commuting efficiency,
- SPORT and BOOSTER for deep snow and steep climbs,
- WALK for icy push-sections.
Winter riding becomes lighter, safer and more fun. What once felt like endurance now becomes enjoyment. PREETO doesn’t make winter warmer, it makes winter riding wonderful.
