Atala E-Load 2026: Utility Build and Conflicting Carrying Records
Atala E-Load in the 2026 catalogue is a 20-inch utility bicycle with a steel easy-access frame and an integrated rear carrier. Its detailed electrical and mechanical rows help identify the build. The carrying figures conflict with the inspected live product page, however, so this record keeps those numbers visible without recommending a cargo or passenger allowance.
Atala E-Load: the documented frame and wheels
The frame entry specifies Hi-Ten Tig steel, internal cables, disc-brake provision and an integrated carrier. The fork is rigid steel. CST 20 × 3.00 City tyres are listed on 45c double-wall rims, with a front quick release and rear hub motor. Those details distinguish this record from an ordinary small-wheel folder.
The catalogue's notes give a length of 169 cm and width of 71 cm. Those are dimensions of the listed version, not a folded package or a measure of rider fit. Its frame label 42 and 152 mm crank length cannot establish an age group, comfortable reach or permission to change the wheel format.
Six-speed gearing and a named electrical package
A 46-tooth steel chainring, Tourney RD-TZ500 rear derailleur, SL-RV400 six-speed control and fourteen-to-twenty-eight freewheel are specified. The mechanical dual-synchronous disc-brake row gives 180 mm rotors and brake-lever switches. These entries describe original equipment, not a parts-upgrade schedule.
The Ananda 36 V rear-hub system is listed at 50 Nm, with 250 W nominal and 400 W maximum output. Its 474 Wh battery sits behind the seat tube and uses Smart BMS UART. The A19 Digit LED UART display includes Bluetooth. None of those names supplies approval to substitute a battery, charger or service procedure from another Atala model.
Keep the carrying and cockpit differences attached to their sources
The 2026 catalogue lists rear and front carrier figures of 60 kg and 15 kg. The live E-Load page checked on 30 October 2026 instead lists 25 kg and 10 kg. This unresolved difference cannot become a safe loading instruction by adding the figures together or choosing a preferred source. No cargo, passenger or child-seat limit is approved here.
The cockpit descriptions differ too: the catalogue says adjustable alloy stem and 690 mm city bar with 120 mm rise; the live page names a BMX stem and 680 mm bar with 170 mm rise. Record the actual assembly before requesting guidance. The Atala reference index and brand overview provide context while these exact-version questions remain separate.
FAQ
Is the photographed historical city bike this E-Load?
No. The photograph supplies historical Atala brand context, not this utility model or an electric build.
Can the conflicting carrier figures be added together?
No. They are unresolved equipment records, not an approved total carrying allowance.
Does UART establish a substitute battery match?
No. Communication wording is only one identifier; the complete approved system still needs confirmation.
