Further, Faster, Longer. Our new E-Sommet is a hard hitting E-enduro bike built for going downhill fast. With an efficient Shimano motor to get you back to the top of the trail head ready for your next shred. More Power Than You.

Frame Travel: 167mm
Intended Use: All-Mountain/Enduro/Freeride
Wheel Size: 29 F/27.5" R
Frame Material: 6061-T6 Aluminium
Motor: Shimano EP8 or E7000
Battery: Shimano Internal - Frame compatible with 630wh or 504wh internal battery

The much loved E-Sommet is now updated with an integrated battery design, incorporating all aspects of the system within the frame. Engineers designed a battery door on the bottom of the downtube, and by adding strength in key areas and placing cutout on flat surface it ensured the frame retained all the riding performance.

We have updated the geometry to give a more confidence inspiring ride. The main key changes are slacker head angles and reduced BB drop to aid technical climbing. We have also steepened the effective seat tube angle and made it progressively steeper as you go up the size range, this ensures that each frame size has an optimal sagged saddle position with no compromise.

By measuring saddle height at saddle lay back we looked at the position of the saddle relative to the bottom bracket to ensure when the bike was in sag you had an optimal pedaling position. The reason we steepened the seat angle on the larger frame sizes was to ensure that the saddle layback wasn't too far behind the bottom bracket.

A Larger 630Wh battery with the EP8 which has 36% less pedaling resistance versus the E8000 ensures you get more out of the battery with greater range. Combining this with the enhanced frame performance ensures you enjoy every segment.

EP8 sees the introduction of a new Magnesium housing, offering greater assistance on a wide range, weighing 10% less than the previous E8000, and 20% more torque going from 70Nm to 85Nm allowing you to take on the steepest climbs and toughest trails with traction and control. Paired with the E8036 630Wh integrated battery, the EP8 is ideally suited to the purpose of the E-Sommet.

Block Lock ICR Acros headset allows neater cable management through the headset, with the block feature limiting the handlebar rotation to ensure your frame/bars are protected.

We have gone with the same fixed lower shock mount as the Sommet & Escarpe, this also allowed us to refine the suspension kinematics. An improved consistent progressive leverage curve gives a more consistent feel, support and damping.

Leverage Rate: We've straightened out the curve on the E-Sommet vs the 2020 versions and increased the progressivity from 8% to 25%. This change improves small bump sensitivity and mid stroke support. The increase in progression also helps with end stroke control and allows better compatibility with coil shocks.

Anti Squat: We reduced the Anti-Squat to work alongside the improved leverage curve with increased mid-stroke support. High Anti-Squat can have a negative effect on suspension performance and was the main reason we lowered the Anti-Squat %.

Anti Rise: Anti rise % has been reduced in the beginning stages of the travel, this prevents the bike from pitching forwards on steeper trails and gives a more balanced feel when braking. Suspension will still stay active when braking because of the low (50%) Anti-rise and horst link suspension design.
