Top E-MTBs of 2019: Canyon Spectral:ON 9.0



Canyon SpectralON 9.0
Powered by the cleanly integrated Shimano STEPS E8000 motor, the Canyon SpectralON 9.0 accelerates naturally and evenly, even from a standstill or on steep terrain. But it doesn't just cut a fine figure on the climbs, it also cuts a fine figure on the descents. This is ensured by the Kashima coated Fox chassis, a Fox Factory 36 suspension fork works on the front axle and a Fox Factory Float DPS EVO damper provides the necessary spring travel on the rear triangle. In addition to the electric drive, the rear derailleur is also electrified, because the XT Di2018 group presented in 2 is attached here. The necessary deceleration is also achieved by components from Shimano, Saint brakes with four pistons each on the front and rear axles.

Price: 5999 Euro

Well-coordinated 160mm suspension travel, voluminous 27.5 inch plus tires and the powerful brake system ensure full and confident handling and maximum control. Despite its smooth running, the Uproc7 is very dynamic and agile thanks to the short chainstays and the optimized weight distribution.

Powered by the Bosch Performance CX Line, whose battery is neatly integrated, you are not only down quickly but also at the summit in record time.

pivot shuttle
The noble slicer among the E-MTBs. The Pivot Shuttle is characterized by the finest carbon components and excellently coordinated individual parts. 150mm of travel unlocked by a Fox Factory 36 Kashima and a Fox Float Factory DPX2 with 140mm of travel. Nevertheless, these 140mm feel like a lot more thanks to the DW-LINK construction. A Shimano STEPS E8000 drive with a fully integrated battery accelerates the shuttle powerfully and evenly up to a maximum of 25 km/h. Shifting is electronic here, Shimano's XT Di2 rear derailleur is installed here. The pivot e-bike is decelerated with a four-piston brake system from Shimano.

Top E-MTBs of 2019: Rocky Mountain Altitude Powerplay C90 Rally Edition

Rocky Mountain Altitude Powerplay C90
Made for the rough. With the Rally Edition of the Rocky Mountain Powerplay, special emphasis was placed on the chassis and brakes. Shimano Saint brakes, each with four pistons and 203mm brake discs, are installed, which not only provide the necessary control, but can also anchor properly. The Fox Float X2 damper absorbs up to 160mm of travel. The highlight, however, is the e-bike-optimized Fox 36 E-MTB Float EVOL GRIP2 Factory fork with 160mm travel. This combination takes on even the roughest terrain. The PowerPlay is powered by a motor developed together with Propulsion Powercycle.

Top E-MTBs of 2019: Specialized Turbo Levo Expert FSR



Specialized Turbo Levo Expert FSR
The completely reworked Specialized Turbo Levo of the second generation is not only lighter than its predecessor, but you will also find the new Specialized 2.1 motor made of magnesium here, which was developed together with Brose. In combination with the 700 Wh battery, nothing stands in the way of an extensive summit tour. 150mm spring travel at the front and rear using Rock Shox spring elements provide the necessary reserves, even when things get rough. The Levo is delayed by a four-piston Sram Code R on 200mm brake discs. A nice gimmick is the SWAT multitool integrated in the head tube, so you always have the right tool with you.

Price: 7999 Euro
