Why did it take us so long to make the 160E? Because we thought its only wise that we heed the laws of physics. So we took the time to explore and build the 160E on an all new suspension platform, we call Sixfinity™. Also allows us to address the added power, weight and unique demands of an E-bike. Sure it took us some time. From what we've learned along the way, it'll save even more. The first E-bike built for racing, the 160E breaks new grounds.
Boost spacing and SRAM UDH hanger.
446mm chain stay.
Uninterrupted 31.6 seat tube offers great dropper post compatibility.
Rated to Yeti DH standards.
Floating collet axles and pinch bolts on the linkage extend bearing life and ensure optimal, consistent alignment.
Custom OneUp chain guide mount.
MD thru XL Mainframes accommodate a standard water bottle while our "hot lap" bottle will fit in a SM frame.
Custom cable ports, captured hoses and housing and ribbed chainstay guards provide a silent ride.
The frame ports are also configurable for clean setup whether you run cabled, wireless or a combination for your dropper and derailleur.
"Moto" brake compatible routing (Left Rear Brake/Right Front Brake).
Tube in tube routing in swingarm for rear brake, speed sensor and derailleur.
Rear mud fender protects motor and linkage.
Shock drain hole to keep water and mud out.
New E exclusive Sixfinity™ suspension platform, Patent pending
6-Bar linkage
Lower link switches direction similar to Switch Infinity
We're able to tune Sixfinity™ to have our desired ride characteristics while accommodating the weight and speed that comes with a motor and battery
First Sixfinity™ platform prototype developed in 2016
As the suspension progresses through its travel, the Switch link initially rotates up until it reaches the inflection point. It then "switches" directions and continues to rotate down - creating the unique anti-squat curve as shown.
