The all-new Rift Zone EL (“Electric Light”) trail eMTBs take everything you love about the Rift Zone and repurposes it into bikes that share the capability of the full-powered versions but in lighter packages.

Made possible in part by Bosch’s new lightweight Performance Line SX drive unit and CompactTube internal battery, the Rift Zone EL models deliver a decidedly playful ride with a power delivery so natural you might forget its an ebike. With all the benefits without the bulk, the Rift Zone EL is the perfect platform for those who don’t require the full range and power output of more traditional eMTBs.

The Rift Zone EL1 is smartly spec’d with air-sprung Marzozzchi Bomber suspension, Shimano’s stout and smooth-shifting CUES 10-speed drivetrain and powerful TRP Slate EVO 4-piston disc brakes.
