Algupära
Centurion introduced the Overdrive in spring 2019, choosing the Fazua Evation motor precisely because it could be removed entirely — letting the bike function as a conventional road bike when the motor pack is out. The carbon Z4000 Road, at 13.92 kg, was among the world's lightest production e-road bikes at launch and attracted attention from road cyclists who previously dismissed e-bikes as too heavy. In 2020, an aluminium Overdrive City with flat bar broadened the range to urban commuters. The Fazua 2.0 upgrade improved torque feel and cadence sensing over the original Evation 1.0.

Verdikt
+Tugevused
- Sub-14 kg carbon weight is exceptional for an e-road bike — feels nearly like an acoustic road bike on the flat
- Removable Fazua drive pack means the bike can be ridden without motor on days you want the full workout
- Shimano Ultegra groupset and DT Swiss ER1600 wheels deliver premium road performance independent of the motor
−Nõrkused
- 250 Wh battery is small by e-bike standards — range is limited to ~60-80 km in assist mode
- Fazua 2.0 delivers only 60 Nm vs 85 Nm from Bosch CX — perceptibly less torque on steep climbs
- No integrated display — Fazua uses minimal handlebar indicator; lack of data feedback frustrates some riders
