All Elite E-mountain bikes share the same E-bike tech as well as the same amount of travel.

These bikes are trail bikes with 150mm travel suspension forks and 140mm travel rear suspension.

The wheel set up is what’s commonly known as a mullet set up. The front wheel is a 29er which rolls over obstacles with ease due to its bigger diameter. The rear wheel is 27.5 which makes the back and of the bike more playful as the wheel is smaller and we can make the swingarm of the frame around an inch shorter than if it was built to take a 29 rear wheel.

Business at the front, party at the back!

All Elite models have ”Advanced” in their name which means that the frame is made from carbon composite to keep weight down and means we can create smooth sleek lines in the frame design.

All models come with full carbon composite front triangles. The Intrigue Elite 3 model has an aluminium swingarm to keep the cost down but all other models have carbon composite swingarms to match the front triangles.

Looking down the spec sheets you’ll see that all models have air sprung forks and shocks from Fox or RockShox, 1x12 mountain bike specific drivetrains, hydraulic disc brakes with at least 200mm rotors on every model, dropper seat posts and Maxxis tubeless tyres.

When it comes to the E-bike tech every model shares the same equipment whether you buy the starting model or the top of the range everyone gets the same electronics regardless of price.

The motor is the Giant SyncDrive Pro 2 which can put out over 600 Watts of power, up to 85 Newton meters of torque and can quadruple your input. No other lightweight E bike system on the market can do that.

Battery tech is often overlooked. For us it’s as important as the motor. The batteries in these bikes are made exclusively for us by Panasonic, the biggest battery cell manufacturer in the World.

These cells are the only E-bike specific battery cells in the market and are good for at least 2300 full charging cycles. There’s a 400 watt hour battery in the down tube and is compatible with our 200 watt hour range extender taking the total capacity up to 600 watt hours.

Control wise the bikes are all fitted with the RideControl Ergo 3 on the handlebars and the RideControl Go in the top tube so there’s 2 options for changing which assistance mode you’re in.
