Gobao's E-Bike Drive and Gearbox Combo Takes Aim at DJI's Avinox with Automatic Shifting Technology
A major technology showdown is brewing in the e-bike industry as DJI's sub-brand Avinox and components manufacturer Gobao race to bring integrated automatic transmission drive systems to market. Both products feature powerful motors combined with automatic gearboxes and are generating significant anticipation across the industry.
Highlights
- DJI sub-brand Avinox and components manufacturer Gobao are competing to launch integrated automatic transmission e-bike drive systems.
- Both systems combine a high-powered motor with an automatic gearbox that selects the optimal gear ratio without rider input, targeting both mountain and urban riding scenarios.
- Automatic shifting integration represents a broader industry trend toward smarter, lower-barrier e-bike technology.
- Full product specifications and official launch timelines for both Avinox and Gobao systems have not yet been publicly disclosed.
A compelling technology battle is taking shape in the e-bike market: DJI's sub-brand Avinox and components manufacturer Gobao are both aggressively pushing to bring high-powered drive motors with integrated automatic transmissions to consumers.
Two Rivals, One Decisive Technology: Automatic Shifting
Avinox, operating under the DJI umbrella, draws on its parent company's deep expertise in powertrain engineering and precision control systems as it develops high-performance e-bike drive units. Gobao, meanwhile, is emerging as a serious challenger in its own right, introducing a proprietary motor and integrated gearbox combination solution.
At the heart of the rivalry is each company's ability to seamlessly combine a powerful motor with an automatic-shifting gearbox in a single integrated unit. This design approach not only smooths out the riding experience but also enables an e-bike to automatically select the optimal gear ratio — whether tackling mountain trails or navigating urban commutes — without any manual input from the rider.
A New Direction for the E-Bike Industry
The introduction of automatic shifting technology signals a broader shift in the e-bike sector toward smarter, more convenient mobility solutions. For riders seeking a low-effort, high-efficiency experience, integrated automatic transmission drive systems have the potential to significantly lower the barrier to entry while simultaneously raising overall riding performance.
Whether applied to mountain bikes or urban commuter e-bikes, the widespread adoption of this technology is expected to deliver a meaningful upgrade in user experience. Industry observers and enthusiasts alike are watching both upcoming products closely, eagerly anticipating the moment these two contenders go head-to-head.
Full product specifications and launch timelines for both Avinox and Gobao's offerings have yet to be officially disclosed. Further developments are expected in the coming months.
