eSILEX+ 600

 

Explore the path less travelled, follow the trail wherever it might take you. With hub motor assistance and battery hidden within a svelte frame, this is a bike to expand your horizons.

The helping hand of a hub drive unit and the off-road capability of a gravel bike means the eSILEX 600+ allows you to choose the trail you want to ride. Ride on or off-road with the combination of plump, gravel-ready tyres on agile 650b rims with drop barred efficiency and the subtle helping hand of the MAHLE ebikemotion X35+ hub motor and 250 Wh battery. A smooth Shimano GRX single chainring wide-range groupset and hydraulic disc brakes mean effortless control while our carbon fork helps dampen vibrations, plus a full complement of mounts is ideal for backpacking trips.

If you are often looking for the off-road alternative when you are out on your bike or simply enjoy exploring the path unknown, then the eSILEX might be the perfect assisted bike for you. The rear-hub MAHLE system with integrated battery offers a neutral support level whenever your journey requires some e-motor assistance. You can even use an externally mounted 208 Wh MAHLE Range Extender to boost range. Similarly to the non-assisted SILEX, the eSILEX is available in the more rugged 650b or the more fast-rolling 700c set-up. Both versions come with gravel/off-road tyres for extra grip. A large number of fixing points on the frame as well as the fork, turn the eSILEX into an adventure rig without any fuss.

  • Triple butted aluminium frame with built-in 250 Wh battery
  • Sleek 'normal bike' silhouette and low weight
  • Shimano GRX drivetrain and hydraulic brakes
