Here’s a quick round up of some rad new eMTBs and mountain bikes we’ve had the pleasure of seeing in the flesh.
The not-quite-sufficiently air-conditioned halls of Messe Frankfurt oozed with new cycling tech in the 2023 edition of the Eurobike trade show. Some of it could change the industry forever. Some of it may never see the light of day. For one reason or another, all of it is interesting. We have heaps to show you guys over the coming days , but here’s a quick round up of some rad new eMTBs and mountain bikes we’ve had the pleasure of seeing in the flesh.
Details on the Rotwild R.X 1000 eMTB are a little thin for now, but we reckon it’ll deliver around 140/150mm of rear wheel travel via its four-bar linkage, pairing that with a 150mm fork. More details to come on this innovative new eBike. The frame is made with carbon composite materials, manufactured through an automated process known as Integrated Loop Technology. We are told the process involves automated fiber winding, so the risk of human error is eliminated.
However, the major advantage for mountain bikers, and especially those in a hurry, is the ability to shift under load. Switching gear using the Powershift hub gives you an effective shift through 2-3 gears when compared to a traditional 1x drivetrain. That’s going to be especially helpful when you need to step on the gas following a tight, technical corner, or when rolling into a surprise steep technical climb. It’ll be interesting to see how Alex and co get on with this one.
