Components that perform ride after ride
The ELyte EVO RS is dressed in a curated parts list of trail-proven, real-world kit that performs out of the box and as well as for the long haul: RockShox Lyrik Select+ fork and Deluxe Select+ rear shock deliver exceptional rough terrain control; SRAM Eagle T-Type 1x12 gearing, Maxxis tyres, feedback-rich SRAM DB8 four-piston brakes, and more. Our own custom suspension from RockShox has also been meticulously tuned to deliver you outstanding, ground-hugging grip with the support you need right from your first pedal stroke.
Charge time: 50% in 1.5hrs from empty, and to 100% in 3.5hrs.
A lightweight, low mass chassis
The beating heart of the ELyte EVO RS is a lightweight yet strong carbon fibre chassis that carefully packages Bosch's powerful Performance Line CX full-torque, full power motor – and the 400Wh internal battery – seamlessly together with the 250Wh PowerMore range extender as low as possible to deliver you the finest handling and most confidence-inspiring ride in every situation – whether you’re running the PowerMore or not.
Refined Bosch performance
Bosch’s all-new Performance Line CX full-torque, full-power motor is quieter, lighter, and even more refined than ever before. Delivering up to 400% support – that’s 4x you – even at low cadences, it offers the best balance of power, control and range to help get the most from your riding. Add in Bosch’s market-leading reliability, a global network of service centres, and the companion eBike Flow app which lets you get even more from your riding, and you’re all set to ride like a Bosch.
Have your bike, your way
Want more or less battery? It comes with Bosch’s 250Wh PowerMore range extender – that mounts in the lower bottle boss position – so you can choose to run just the 400Wh internal battery for 'power-hour' rides, or a with the PowerMore and take on longer rides with a combined 650Wh of battery capacity . Want to run a bottle, or even two? The frame has two bottle positions: a lower for a full 750ml bottle (using the included bottle cage adaptor), and a higher Fidlock position for a smaller 450ml bottle (on sizes M-XL) – even with the PowerMore in place. Want to slacken the geometry out? The ‘Shape.it Link’ geometry adjustment lets you change between the stock high to its low setting for a lower, slacker geometry for more downhill grins.
