If you’ve been watching the eMTB world lately, you’ve probably heard the name DJI Avinox—and for good reason. Best known for its innovation in drone and camera tech, DJI officially entered the electric mountain bike space in 2024, and their debut motor system shook up the industry.
At Drip e-Bikes, we believe it represents a true shift in how class 1 electric bikes are powered and experienced. Here’s why it’s making waves—and why it just might be the best motor system on the trail today.
The DJI Avinox M1 Drive Unit weighs just 2.52 kg (5.5 lbs), yet delivers an astounding 105Nm of continuous torque. That puts it in the same power class as the most aggressive eMTB motors out there—but in a far more compact and lightweight form. It’s the perfect blend of raw power and refined design, giving you effortless climbing and trail-slaying capability without the bulk.
The Avinox motor system includes five intelligent assist modes: Auto, Eco, Trail, Turbo, and Boost. Each mode tailors the ride feel for different terrain and energy output, while Auto mode dynamically adjusts power in real time, providing one of the most natural, intuitive experiences we’ve seen. It’s the kind of responsiveness that makes you forget you’re even on an e-bike—until you crest that brutal climb without breaking a sweat.
At the heart of the system is a high-efficiency 800Wh battery, weighing just 8.2 lbs (3.74 kg) and integrated cleanly into the frame. Riders can expect up to 98 miles of range on a single charge—more than enough for full-day adventures. Plus, ultra-fast charging minimizes downtime, making this one of the most efficient power systems available for high-performance trail riding.
Forget clunky interfaces—DJI’s full-color smart display is sleek, modern, and ultra-legible in all conditions. It displays real-time ride metrics, battery status, motor output, and system health, all with intuitive navigation. And with seamless mobile app integration, you can update firmware, track rides, and fine-tune settings straight from your phone. It’s what we’ve come to expect from DJI—tech-forward, rider-focused, and beautifully executed.
Thanks to its compound planetary gearset, the Avinox M1 is not only compact—it’s shockingly quiet. You get the high-torque performance you’d expect from a heavyweight motor, but in a stealthy, agile package that doesn’t overpower your ride. The low system weight helps maintain your bike’s natural handling, making it easier to whip through corners, pop off features, and stay nimble on technical terrain.
At Drip e-Bikes, our mission is to build the lightest, best-performing eMTBs on the market—and the DJI Avinox motor system aligns perfectly with that vision. It delivers class-leading torque, range, and smart functionality, all while keeping your bike light, quiet, and trail-tuned. It’s more than a motor. It’s a complete system designed for riders who demand the best, and we hope to soon bring you DJI Avinox powered bikes.
At Drip e-Bikes, we’ve always been about delivering unbeatable performance without the premium markup—and our newest partnership takes that mission even further. We’re proud to announce our collaboration with Teewing Bikes to bring the Turbo Force lineup to the U.S., powered by DJI’s revolutionary Avinox motor system.
