Lightweight or full power? That is the big question for many when shopping for eMTBs. Rocky Mountain Bikes presents a compelling argument for mid-weight mid-power with their Instinct Powerplay SL. Its Dyname S4 Lite motor provides ample boost power to ride any trail, and its 480Wh battery offers enough range to last longer than a lot of riders' legs and lungs!

The S-Works Levo 4 LTD is certainly something special, and it's not often that a brand as prominent as Specialized specs a bike with such exotic components - parts that are usually reserved for custom-built, dream-bikes. This off-the-shelf Levo 4 LTD comes with a Fox Podium fork, Fox Float X GENIE shock, SRAM XX Transmission, Industry Nine A35 stem with RaceFace Era carbon bars, a Fox NEO wireless dropper post, and Roval Traverse Carbon HD rims laced to Industry Nine Hydra hubs.
Leoguar may be a newer name in the e-bike world, but the brand brings decades of OEM experience to its first eMTB model under its own banner: the aptly named Trailblazer. This entry-level eMTB is aimed at newer to intermediate riders, with one frame size designed to fit shorter to average heights and modern XC/Trail geometry for a confident ride.
