The eOne-Eighty 500 is built for taking on the gnarliest trails wherever you find them. MBR Magazine called the eOne-Eighty "the most capable long-travel e-bike I've ever tested", and its predictable handling makes it a great match for experienced freeriders and newer riders alike.

Its robust aluminium frame delivers 180mm of travel at both ends, controlled by a RockShox Zeb Base fork and Vivid Base shock, so it's ready to eat up rock gardens for breakfast, drops for lunch and gaps for dinner. A mixed-wheel setup with a 29" front and 27.5" rear gives you rollover where it counts and agility at the back.

At its heart is the Bosch Performance Line CX Gen 5 motor, delivering up to 120Nm of smooth torque and 750W of peak power following Bosch's free Performance Upgrade 2.0 software update. It's a rider favourite, running quietly and known as one of the most reliable eMTB motors around, and it's paired with a large 800Wh PowerTube battery that can be removed from the down tube. SRAM DB4 4-piston brakes with 200mm rotors and a Shimano Cues 1x10 drivetrain round out a tough, dependable build.
