Impervia: A Luxury Gravel eBike with M40 System
Pard Design Unveils Impervia
Pard Design introduces Impervia, its first luxury gravel e-bike, crafted for riders who seek refined performance beyond the asphalt. Designed to navigate urban streets, gravel roads and trails with elegance and control, Impervia combines Italian craftsmanship with advanced e-bike technology.
CNC Aluminium Frame: Precision and Character
Impervia features a CNC-machined aluminium 6082 frame, delivering a unique blend of structural integrity and sculpted aesthetics. With a total e-bike weight of approximately 18 kg, this frame offers the ideal balance between durability and lightweight performance.
Every detail of the frame is shaped with precision, reflecting Pard Design’s commitment to elegance and functionality. The geometry is optimised for gravel riding, while the clean lines and integrated components maintain the brand’s signature visual identity.
Powered by the MAHLE M40 System
At the core of Impervia is the MAHLE M40 System, a compact and powerful mid-drive motor engineered for instinctive control across varied terrain. Weighing just 2.5 kg, the M40 delivers:
- 105 Nm of torque
- 850 W peak power
- Smooth, natural assistance thanks to dynamic control logic and high-resolution sensorics
The system responds instantly to pedal input, even during sudden cadence changes, ensuring a fluid and confident riding experience. Advanced features such as Motor Dynamic Overrun and Hill Brake enhance control on technical terrain and steep inclines.
Italian Components for Gravel Performance
Impervia integrates BCA Performance components, known for their mechanical excellence:
- BCA crankset for maximum stiffness and smooth power transfer
- CNC BCA braking system with 160 mm rotors for precise modulation on loose surfaces
- SRAM Force drivetrain, offering fast and accurate shifting tailored for gravel riding
Each component is selected to complement the frame’s performance characteristics, ensuring a cohesive and responsive ride.
Designed Around You
Impervia is not mass-produced. Each bike is built to order, allowing riders to customise materials, finishes and components. From the MAXXIS Revenge tyres to the San Marco Shortfit saddle, every detail reflects the rider’s preferences and riding style.
