Pedal-assist, rated to 250W, assist cuts at 25 km/h. Declared by the brand; declaration not independently sighted.
Is it for you?
Best suited to
Women who want a genuine full-suspension trail e-MTB and don't need the top-spec fork and shifter group of the Elite 2.
Standout strength
Same 85Nm SyncDrive Pro2 motor and 140/150mm travel chassis as the Elite 2, for a thousand dollars less.
The main compromise
Shimano Deore (non-electronic) 12-speed and a coil-free Marzocchi Bomber fork instead of the Elite 2's Fox 36, so it is a notch below flagship on the trail.
