Description
All for fun, and fun for all. This lively enduro e-bike is your ticket to the far side of the mountain where the best-kept trail secrets are. Shimano's latest development, the E7000, keeps your momentum going with customizable assist modes. This rig lets you cover more ground, plus you'll save your energy for good times riding, rather than sad times climbing. Blended 279 geometry delivers the punch-it factor of a 27.5 with the roll-over advantage of a 29er. And it's no surprise that this tech-laden trail beast is nicely spec'd with Fox Performance Float 36 and DPX2 shocks, so you're up for an I-can't-believe-it's-not-butter kinda ride.
- Shimano Steps E7000 motor is compact and lightweight with customizable modes (eco, trail and boost).
- Compact and Bluetooth ready LCD display shows battery range, gear number, and power assist mode.
- Shimano E-Tube app lets you customize your modes, see all levels of detail, and manage firmware updates.
- Sleek battery swaps out easily on the trail, and it's small enough to stash a spare in your pack.
- To keep your battery performing at its best, follow the manufacturer’s guidelines regarding storage and charging conditions (e-Bike batteries can be very sensitive to cold temperatures).
- Full carbon frame gives a lively enduro ride with a 64.9 degree headtube angle.
- FOX Performance Float 36 E-Bike (GRIP 3 positions) with 160mm of travel.
- FOX Performane DXP2 rear shock has 3 positions with 155mm of travel.
- Shimano SLX shifter and derailleur provide smooth shifiting with a tough chain.
- Shimano XT cranks with a 34T chainring pair with an 11-speed 11-42T cassette.
- Shimano M520 hydraulic brakes with 203mm rotors for increased braking power.
- DT Swiss H1900 wheels feature DT Swiss 370 hybrid hubs and DT Hybrid 1 spokes.
- Dropper seat post offers 125mm (S) 150mm (M/L) or 170mm (XL) of travel.
- Tires: Maxxis Minion DHR II 29 x 2.6 (front) and 27.5 x 2.8 (rear).
