Giant Stance E+ launched with SyncDrive Pro 3X power and 150/140mm trail travel
The Giant Stance E+ has been launched as a full-power trail e-MTB, clearly aimed at UK riders who want big climbing support, real suspension travel, and a chassis that stays composed when the trail turns steep and ugly. This is not a lightweight eMTB play; it is a proper “ride more trails, more often” package…
Liv Embolden E+ launched as a full-power trail e-MTB designed to help riders progress
The Liv Embolden E+ has been launched as a confidence-driven, full-power trail e-MTB built to make real mountain riding feel more manageable, more consistent, and more fun. It sits firmly in the modern “do-it-all trail” sweet spot, with travel numbers that are big enough for proper technical riding, plus an E+ system package that is…
Race Face launches Era eMTB carbon wheels with a 150kg system weight rating
Race Face has expanded its carbon wheel range with the new Race Face Era eMTB wheels, an e-bike-specific build aimed at riders on full-power e-MTBs who regularly punish rear wheels. The headline numbers are a 150kg system weight rating (bike, rider, and kit) and a 130 Nm maximum assist torque rating, which is the key point…
Specialized Turbo Levo R launched as a rally-focused full-power e-MTB
Specialized has expanded its Levo line-up with the new Specialized Turbo Levo R, a shorter-travel, 29er-only take on the brand’s full-power platform that’s clearly aimed at riders who want a quicker, more agile feel than a traditional big-travel e-MTB. On paper, the Specialized Turbo Levo R keeps the same Turbo 3.1 drive system as the…
Chromag Shift Protection Series: Level 2 knees, Level 1 elbows, built for pedal days
Chromag has launched the Shift Protection Series, a new set of trail-focused knee and elbow pads aimed at riders who want protection they can actually leave on for the full ride. The headline is certification: the Shift Knee is rated to EN 1621-1:2012 Level 2, while the Shift Elbow is EN 1621-1:2012 Level 1. For…
Sour Pasta Party 32: 32-inch MTB wheels arrive, and eMTBs could be next in line
This is not an eMTB. The Sour Pasta Party 32 is a steel hardtail built for XC pace and fast trail riding. But it is still eMTB-relevant because wheel-size trends rarely stay in one lane. If 32-inch MTB wheels become a real standard, the parts ecosystem will grow first, then the eMTB market will start…
COREbike 2026 round-up: the MTB and eMTB kit and distribution moves worth knowing about
COREbike 2026 is the kind of UK industry event where the product conversation is not just about what exists, but about what will actually land in shops, what distributors are backing, and what mechanics are likely to see across the workstand over the next season. For Electric MTB UK readers, that matters because it shapes…
Orbea Rallon RS range extender: Orbea clarifies battery range and adds new RS system documents
The Orbea Rallon RS landed with a clear message: better ride feel, not bigger numbers. It is a lightweight enduro eMTB built around the TQ HPR40, a smaller 290Wh internal battery, and a deep integration approach that treats the motor, controls and electronic components as one joined-up system rather than bolt-on extras. Since our original…
Propain Sresh SL launched: TQ HPR60 power and modular batteries for a proper lightweight eMTB
The Propain Sresh SL is Propain’s clearest statement yet on where lightweight eMTBs are heading. Rather than chasing full-power numbers, the Propain Sresh SL is built around the new TQ HPR60 drive unit and a modular battery setup that lets you choose between a lighter, more agile ride feel or a bigger range for longer…

The CrossWorx PACE290 800Wh battery upgrade is positioned as a straightforward retrofit for riders who already own the bike with the 600Wh pack, giving existing PACE290 owners a factory route to higher capacity without…
