Electric Mountain Bikes
Around £10000
If you are looking for an electric mountain bike on this page, you are looking for the best electric mountain bike that you can buy. Whilst many will protest and exclaim that you can buy a family car for the same amount of money as one of these e-mtb’s - your average family car is not backed up by the insane amounts of research and design, or the quality of components and materials which goes into each and every one of these electric mountain bikes.
These electric mountain bikes have been designed and developed to provide optimal mountain bike performance, whether that’s blasting across cross country, or tackling steep downhill trails, riddled with obstacles. Fitted with competition level suspension, such as the Fox Float Factory, these electric mountain bikes have the highest level of components available, including electronic drivetrains and groupsets. In addition to this, these mountain bikes are also constructed from the highest grades of carbon fibre, not only does this advanced carbon fibre save weight, but it also allows the frame to achieve geometries and designs, not possible with aluminium frames.
This range has bikes which have the most powerful motors and the biggest capacity batteries that money can buy - such as the Orbea Wild M-LTD which uses a huge capacity Bosch powertube, mated to a Bosch Performance Line CX motor.
Another bike to note within the collection, is the Scott Lumen eRide, this bike weighs just 15.5kg - which is mountain bike levels of weight, not electric mountain bike levels. This bike uses a TQ system, with a TQ Internal 360Wh battery, with a 160Wh range extender, mated to a TQ HPR50 Mid Motor Drive motor which produces 50Nm or torque.
The cost of electric mountain bikes can increase well above the £10,000 threshold, with many electric mountain bikes costing towards the £15,000 price bracket. These bikes are designed to allow the rider to push the boundaries of what can be achieved on a mountain bike, and understandably - they are absolutely spot on when it comes to all aspects of not only their handling across varied off road terrain, but also the reliability and smoothness of their power delivery.
Increasingly, electric mountain bikes are beginning to be used competitively, and if you are planning to race and compete on an e-mtb, these are the exact bikes you want to be riding.
