CYC Photon Gen 2 Mid-Drive E-Bike Conversion Kit

Power redefined, adventure unleashed. The CYC Photon Gen 2 is a next-generation mid-drive conversion kit engineered for precision, power, and seamless integration. Designed for riders who demand reliability and exhilarating torque, it delivers smooth, natural pedal assist with industry-leading efficiency — whether you're hitting the trails, commuting daily, or chasing new limits. Converts almost any bike; just bring your own battery.

Compact core, peak power
An in-runner motor design delivers over 30% greater efficiency under high load, generating around 60% less heat and sustaining peak power continuously. The internal clutch is built to handle over three times the load of the Gen 1, making it one of the most durable systems on the market. Rated 250W/750W with 1200W peak (2000W in unrestricted mode) and up to 135N·m of torque.

Redesigned for serious climbing
Instant torque delivery and a refined torque sensor give you the punch to climb steep grades and accelerate out of corners, while advanced thermal management keeps output steady on long climbs and fast descents.

Intuition Display
Purpose-built for CYC drive systems, the Intuition Display integrates seamlessly with your kit. Its Smart Assist adapts to your riding using real-time data and the human power measured by the torque sensor, for a natural, responsive ride — with essential stats and controls right at your fingertips.

CYC Ride Control app
Connect via Bluetooth to unlock personalised Smart Assist configuration, power-mode settings, live ride data, advanced tuning, and over-the-air updates. Available on iOS and Android.

Quick installation & broad compatibility
The compact mid-drive fits around 95% of modern frames and installs with standard tools. Sealed electronics and premium materials mean less maintenance and more trail time. Runs anywhere from 36V to 72V.
