IN BRIEF
Avinox, the electric drive system launched by DJI in 2024, is unveiling the DP200: a control display that leaves the frame’s top tube to sit directly on the handlebar. With a 1.4-inch colour LCD touchscreen and five thumb-accessible buttons, it handles both the assistance levels and the system’s automatic shifting (with a compatible drivetrain). The DP200 also builds in Apple’s Find My network, to track down a stolen bike without a separate tracker. Above all, it is meant to give partner brands more freedom to integrate Avinox electronics into their bikes. At the announcement on 15 September 2026, Avinox gave neither a price nor an availability date: the brand supplies manufacturers, it does not sell directly to riders.

Avinox is expanding its control display range. Until now, Avinox offered displays mounted on the top tube (DP100, DP100-F); the DP200, announced on 15 September 2026, takes another position, directly on the handlebar, in place of a conventional remote. Avinox is aiming at the e-bike brands already fitted with its motor — among them Amflow, Corratec, Storck, Orbea and Nukeproof — to which it is now offering an extra integration option.
Avinox DP200: a display that replaces the remote, not the dashboard
The DP200 combines in a single housing what was previously split between two parts: the handlebar remote and the top-tube display. Its 1.4-inch colour LCD touchscreen (242 ppi, 800 nits) has an anti-glare and scratch-resistant treatment, and is IP56-certified against dust and water. Fitted to the handlebar rather than to the frame, it cuts down the number of cables to be routed up to the top tube, according to Avinox.
Five buttons, both hands stay on the bars
Five buttons make up the interface: two set the assistance level, two control the shifting, the last one switches the system on and off. Their layout is meant to allow everything to be operated without letting go of the handlebar. The DP200 also drives the Avinox system’s automatic shifting: automatic downshift when stopping, a start-up assist that lines up the right gear before setting off again, and shifting support on descents. The press release states it in a footnote: this automatic shifting requires specific TRP external derailleurs or Lofandi integrated geared hubs.
Tracking the bike through Apple’s network
The DP200 builds in Apple’s Find My network: a bike fitted with it can be located without an additional tracker. In the comparison table published by Avinox, it is, along with the DPC100 introduced on 9 April 2026, one of only two displays to support the feature — the DP100 and DP100-F are listed there as “Not supported”. According to Avinox, an Apple Watch can also unlock the bike and serve as a secondary screen for real-time ride data — a feature that is announced, not independently tested.
A display less well equipped than the DP100s
The DP200 does not inherit all the functions of the DP100 and DP100-F top-tube displays: no on-board 4G LTE, no USB-C charging for a smartphone or lights (the DP100s deliver up to 65 W over PD3.0), and neither automatic brightness nor Komoot navigation imported from the app — according to the notes of the comparison table published by Avinox, automatic brightness is reserved for the DP100 and DP100-F, and navigation for those same displays and the DPC100. The DP200 does still carry a GNSS chip (GPS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS) and the same motion sensors (inertial measurement unit, compass, barometer), with 8 GB of storage. According to that same comparison, it is on the other hand the only one of the four displays to carry an expansion port rated at 12 V, 3.0 A, 36 W, against 12 V, 2.0 A, 24 W for the DP100, DP100-F and DPC100.
Price and availability: nothing announced
Avinox has given neither a price nor an on-sale date for the DP200. The system is not sold directly to riders: it equips the e-bikes of partner brands, which will choose whether or not to offer this handlebar option in place of the usual frame display.
