September is a busy time on the farm, with calving and lambing underway as spring arrives across the country.
We're excited to see the NZ Post DUTY rollout now underway, with bikes arriving and deployments beginning in selected regions this month. Additional NZ Post and DX Mail rollouts are planned throughout the remainder of the year.
DUTY training dates for both islands have been confirmed. If you have not received your invitation, please contact support@ubco.com.
We're also pleased to advise that new Gen5 upgrade solutions are now available, including the Lever Lock and System 2 Brake Upgrade Kits, with further enhancements planned to improve reliability, performance, and the ownership experience.

Traction Control -
Final validation is underway, with rider feedback proving extremely positive. Designed to reduce front wheel spin on hills and loose terrain, Traction Control will be available soon, delivering greater confidence and control in challenging conditions.
" All the users of both bikes are unanimous in their approval of it. The bike is easier to ride especially for the less experienced ones. We now leave the bikes on full power, full regeneration and traction control. So very successful."
UBCO Fleet Rider | Trails and Pest Trapping | Nelson Region
“So far I’m impressed. It’s a vast improvement, preventing the front wheel from spinning on loose stones, slippery surfaces, and when the bike is light up front.”
