Hi guys! I just received this notification from Larry Pizzi, President and Head of Sales at the Accell Group North America who asked me to share it with you here.
Attached is an update on the availability of the new Haibike FLYON Series, in the form of a brief frequently asked questions FAQ, along with the introductory press kit on the EU introduction. Because of the long lead-time to revise and prepare the drive and battery pack system for US and Canadian compliance to standards and top speed, the North American introduction will be delayed from the Fall of 2019 to early 2020. We ask that you kindly share this information with your readers to help us alleviate any confusion for our customers in North America. Should you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
As Larry said, if you have any questions or feedback, just post here and I'll try to coordinate and get some answers. Larry has answered personally in the past so we might even see him checking in. I saw the FLYON drive unit on display at Interbike 2018 but wasn't able to get up close or ride it. Here's their North America FAQ:

- Q: When will FLYON models become available for sale?
A: FLYON will be available for the German market in May or June of 2019. This is an EU specific drive system and does not meet US or Canadian compliance requirements. - Q: When will FLYON be available for sale in North America?
A: We currently anticipate FLYON being available in North America in early 2020, due to various US UL and Canadian UL compliance requirements and faster top speeds as allowed under US and Canadian regulations. - Q: What models of FLYON will be sold in the US and Canadian markets?
A: Currently Haibike USA is accepting pre-orders of the following models which is subject to change without notice. If you are interested in placing a pre-order to ensure you an opportunity to purchase when they do arrive, please contact your Haibike retailer.
