A new version of the Futa road e-bike arrives: monocoque carbon frame with internal cable routing and hub motor; gravel handlebars and wheels, bikepacking set; available from June for €7,690.

The Futa All Road is designed for long distances and does not shy away from rough roads. It’s a bike for those who like to choose their own path and don’t want to give up the good feeling of escaping traffic. It’s for the enjoyment of panoramic routes, as well as the challenges of long climbs and tough segments.

It is a fast yet comfortable e-bike, whose technical solutions and components ensure stability even off the beaten track.

Endurance, Adventure and Elegance

The frame retains the sporty endurance geometry.

As with the road version, the Futa AXS, from which it is derived, the motor of the “All Road” is hidden in the hub. The battery is integrated in the down tube and the perfect Ducati style with GP red accents is unmistakable with a visible carbon look.

Lightweight Monocoque Frame

The carbon monocoque frame (DU frame) is characterised by details that are clearly aimed at aerodynamics and therefore speed. The compact rear triangle with lower chainstays also offers greater riding comfort with less air resistance.

The weight of this e-bike is only 12.4 kg (in size M).

Drive and Battery

The FSA System HM 1.0 motor in the rear wheel hub with 250 watts and a torque of 42 Newton meters guarantees smooth and natural pedal assistance in five support levels. With the FSA app, which is available for iOS and Android, the rider can quickly and intuitively call up riding statistics, the remaining range and the battery charge status.

At speeds of over 25 Kph, at which the motor’s pedal assistance is no longer required in accordance with EU regulations, there is virtually no perceivable motor resistance and the pedal stroke remains lively and fluid.

The 250Wh FSA battery integrated in the down tube can be supplemented with a further 250Wh of battery power using the range extender to cover even longer distances.

Electronic Shifting, Carbon Wheels

The Futa All Road is equipped with the SRAM Rival eTap AXS groupset, which is characterised by powerful hydraulic brakes with 160mm brake discs, a wireless 2×12 electronic shifting system for precise and reactive gear changes and Vision AGX30 wheels with carbon rims.

The FSA K-WING AGX Carbon handlebars developed for Gravel offer improved ergonomics thanks to specially shaped contact points.

Its position with a 10-degree forward tilt not only ensures comfort and maneuverability, but also enables a more natural wrist position and a wider elbow position, which in turn makes breathing easier.

The flared shape of the handlebar arch increases steering control and aerodynamics. The cable routing is fully integrated into the frame.

The Vittoria Terreno Dry tires are ideal for mixed road and gravel use. The different tire widths of 38 mm at the front and 35 mm at the rear ensure steering safety and comfort on all surfaces as well as cushioning from bumps.

The saddle is the Selle Italia SLR Boost model.

Bikepacking Set Inlucded

The Futa All Road is enhanced with a bikepacking set consisting of three Skuad bags for the saddle, handlebars and frame. These are made of fully waterproof material and offer maximum storage space without compromising maneuverability, while offering secure fastening in a slim design.

With this set, it is possible to comfortably carry everything you need for an extended two-wheeled adventure on your bike.

The Ducati E-Bikes

This new model expands the Ducati product collection, which previously included the Futa AXS e-road bike, the Powerstage RR e-MTB (full carbon enduro), the TK-01RR (aluminum enduro) and the MIG S (all mountain).

The Futa All Road is available in four sizes from S (53) to XL (59) and at a price of 7,690 euros. Delivery throughout Europe will begin in June 2024.

The Futa All Road can be ordered from one of the Ducati dealers or online at shop.ducati.com
