Specialized SL 1.2

Specialized has introduced the new SL 1.2 e-bike motor for lightweight e-MTBs in the Levo SL. This motor is quieter and has more torque than its predecessor, which significantly surpasses it. It delivers 320 watts and offers 50 Newton meters of torque, which represents an increase of 33% in power and 43% in torque. Originally, the Specialized SL 1.1, despite its lightness and efficiency, made lightweight e-MTBs popular together with the Fazua Evation, but was loud and underpowered. With the new model, Specialized is technically preparing its light e-MTBs for the future.

Shimano EP8 RS

This motor was specially developed for Orbea light MTBs. It has a maximum torque of 60 Nm, which was specially throttled down from the 85 Nm of the EP8. The Shimano EP8 motor was optimally matched to the Orbea firmware Rider Synergy (RS). It has maximum support at a cadence range of 75-95 rpm. In this range, people pedal most efficiently and so the motor feels very natural and is more "bike" than "E". It also weighs 2.68 kg.

Example bike: Orbea Rise

The motor in the Orbea Rise is the result of intensive research and development with the aim of creating the lightest and most efficient system possible. It fits seamlessly into the frame design and does not affect the weight or aesthetics of the bike. This integration ensures a natural riding feel, almost as if you were riding a traditional mountain bike, but with that extra boost when you need it most. This makes the Orbea Rise particularly attractive for those who like to ride on challenging trails, but do not want to do without extra power for longer tours.
