In It to Pin It

Just call it the “sweet spot” – the best of both worlds. Big-bike power and ride time, with lightweight-bike agility and handling. In other words, exactly what e-mtb riders everywhere have been waiting for. Moterra SL might just be the most fun mountain bike we’ve ever made.

Model Description

If you’ve been looking for a ride-anything electric mountain bike that keeps weight low but fun high, you’ve found it. The Moterra SL 2 features our lightest, full-power eMTB chassis, with premium Fox Performance 36 fork and shock, the reliable shifting of Shimano's 12-speed Deore group, WTB KOM Trail tubeless ready rims, and the confident stopping power of Magura MT5 disc brakes.

What it's for

Fast, fluid, ridiculously fun trail riding on everything from the steep and techy to the fast and flowy.

Highlights

  • Light and durable, full carbon, 150mm travel FlexPivot frame with Proportional Response suspension kinematics
  • Premium Fox suspension - 160mm Performance Float 36 fork & Performance Elite Float X rear shock
  • Reliable, smooth shifting, Shimano XT/Deore 12-speed w/ e*thirteen e*spec Plus cranks
  • Powerful, dependable Shimano Deore 6120 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes
  • Cannondale-tuned Shimano EP801 motor & custom, high-energy-density 601Wh internal battery

High on Power, Low on Weight

Electric mountain bikes with this much power on tap have never been this light. The lightweight carbon fiber frame features our weight-saving FlexPivot technology, and houses a custom battery that packs more watts per kilo than any other on the market. That unmatched power-to-weight ratio makes for one hell of a fun ride.

Full Boost

Power comes from a custom-tuned version of Shimano’s EP801 drive unit – the lightest motor capable of the big power we were looking for. With 85Nm of torque and 600+ watts of max output, it brings big-time boost to the lightweight party. 

Power a la Mode

We developed custom ride modes for Moterra SL, specially tuned for the kind of high-speed sessions this rig encourages. Four different levels of boost, easily adjustable on the fly, help you choose between maximum range, monstrous power, or your ideal blend of both. Whether mild or wild, your ride will be whatever you want it to be, no more and no less.

Heavenly Handling

At a glance, it looks kinda crazy – an adjustable head angle slack enough for a DH bike, the long reach and steep seat angle of a modern trail bike, suspension layout and geometry fully customized by size – but when it all comes together, it absolutely rips.

Animated Suspension 

More than just weight-savers, our burly FlexPivot stays are also at the heart of our suspension design. By acting as a Horst pivot, it creates a true four-bar system, allowing our engineers to dial in the perfect suspension response for every input. The result? Incredible traction, confident braking, and a playful feel that just begs to be pushed harder. 

FlexPivot

These carbon flex points are something we pioneered years ago, and they're like a cheat code in frame engineering. They reduce weight, eliminate maintenance, and they allow us to use a sophisticated four-bar suspension design, increasing your traction and control on the trail.

Designed For You

With our Proportional Response design, everything from the suspension layout to the geometry - even the length of the chain stays - is completely customized for each bike's size. It's performance, built just for you.

Flip It Your Way

The Flip Chip means you can choose between keeping Moterra Neo SL as a "mullet" bike, with the 29-inch-front/27.5-inch-rear wheel setup for agility and playfulness, or switching to 29-inchers at both ends, for maximum traction and rolling efficiency.

Get Your Head Set

Adjustable headset cups give you a 1.2-degree range of angle adjustment at the front. Dial it back if you want more stability at speed, set it steeper if you want more agility on technical terrain.

Shimano EP9801 Drive Unit

Shimano's top-shelf e-MTB system: lightweight, reliable, and powerful. 85Nm of torque and 600+ watts of max power, delivered via custom-engineered ride modes for full-power fun.

Custom-tuned Ride Modes

Specially designed assist modes for the perfect ride: ECO - max range for all-day exploits. TRAIL 1 - mid-power, great for riding with friends on lightweight e-bikes. TRAIL 2 - ramps up the power assist for ripping with full-power e-bikes. and BOOST - full power, all the time. Have it your way.

Custom 601Wh Battery

Using special cells that store more power per kilo than ever before, we created an incredibly compact battery that packs a full 601 watt-hours into just 13.1kg (including wiring harness!) All of the power, less of the weight.

Route It Right

You can run internal cables straight through the headset, to keep things looking clean and out of harm's way, or through ports in the frame, for simplicity and ease of service.

Don't Be Bashful

Like a helmet for your motor, an integrated bashguard protects it from harsh impacts on the trail. You may not need it much, but when you do, you're happy it's there.
