Adventure enthusiasts and electric bike aficionados have a reason to get excited with the launch of the Rockrider E-FEEL 900 S all-mountain e-bike, now available for purchase across Europe. This release is part of Decathlon’s Rockrider E-FEEL range and is designed to deliver a robust and exhilarating riding experience.
The Rockrider E-FEEL 900 S, which garnered attention at the Roc d’Azur event, follows in the tire tracks of its siblings, the E-FEEL 700 S and the more upscale E-FEEL 900 S Team Edition, mirroring many of the advanced features of both.
For those looking for power and endurance on the trails, the standard E-FEEL 900 S is equipped with a Shimano EP801 motor, capable of delivering up to 600W peak power and an impressive torque of 85Nm. The motor is powered by a 630Wh battery, promising riders a generous assistance range of approximately 90km (roughly 145 miles) on a full six-hour charge.
Moreover, the bike features a sleek 1.4-inch Shimano SC-EN600 LCD, complete with Bluetooth for connectivity convenience, offering riders full control over their journey. Ensuring a grip on varying terrains are the 29-inch Rockrider Grip 500 tires, complemented by TRP Trail Evo hydraulic disc brakes for reliable stopping power.
Differences do arise when comparing the standard model to the Team Edition. The E-FEEL 900 S has an 11-speed setup, boasting a Shimano Cues LinkGlide Di2 rear derailleur. The suspension is handled by a RockShox Domain RC 160 mm fork and a RockShox Deluxe Select shock absorber, ensuring a smooth and responsive ride over rough landscapes. In contrast, the pricier Team Edition features a Shimano XT HyperGlide Di2 12-speed along with a RockShox Zeb Ultimate fork and Super Deluxe Ultimate shock for a premium suspension experience.
Available now in a range of sizes from S to XL, the E-FEEL 900 S offers all the thrills of an all-mountain electric bike at the attractive price point of €4,499.99/£4,999.99. This positions the standard model as a more budget-friendly alternative to the Team Edition, making it an appealing option for those looking to hit the mountain trails without breaking the bank.
In conclusion, the new Decathlon Rockrider E-FEEL 900 S represents an exciting opportunity for riders to elevate their all-mountain treks. With its combination of power, technology, and terrain flexibility, this electric mountain bike is shaping up to be a lively addition to the e-bike market.
