E-Caliber 9.6 is a carbon electric mountain bike that rides-and looks-like a traditional cross country bike. The compact Fazua drive system lets you do more of what you love with subtle, natural-feeling assist that doesn't overpower the physical and technical challenges of the trail.It's right for you if…This bike is perfect for XC riders who want to push a little farther or a little steeper. It's also great for anyone who needs a little boost to motivate them to ride more, to get up climbs, or to keep pace with faster groups.The tech you getAn OCLV Mountain Carbon frame with 60mm of travel, a 120mm RockShox Gold RL fork, and Trek's IsoStrut FOX Performance shock. A Fazua Ride Trail 50 drive system that can assist up to 20 mph when it's on, and gives zero drag when it's off, plus a Shimano Deore 12-speed drivetrain, dropper post for getting low on descents, and Bontrager Kovee Comp 23 wheels.The final wordE-Caliber is a fast and smooth XC bike that just happens to have a compact drive system that'll give you a little boost when you want it.Why you'll love it:- You get a helping hand from the motor on climbs and long rides, but it's a more natural-feeling assist that gives you an overall experience that's closer to riding an analog bike than a typical e-MTB- The drive system, including the motor, is easily removable. Just take it out, pop on the included cover, and you'll have a standard mountain bike that weighs 2.9kg less than before- IsoStrut gives you just enough rear suspension for cross country traction and comfort with less weight and more efficiency- Pivotless seat stays save on weight and actively bend to help soak up trail chatter
