Bergamont presents the new E-Trailster at Eurobike. The 160 mm travel eMTB is available with either 27.5″ or 29″ wheels. With a new drivetrain, updated geometry and female-specific components, the Hamburg-based company has reinvented the E-Trailster. The E-Contrail has also gotten a few updates. Besides which there is a new 24″ and 26″ eMTB for kids, the E-REvox.

eMTB for kids – Bergamont E-Revox

The new E-Revox promises to make the entry into the world of eMTBing child’s play. Bergamont has opted for 24″ + and 26″ tyres and Bosch Active Line motors. The smaller E-Revox Junior 24 uses the Active Line motor with 40 Nm, which is limited to 20 km/h. The Active Line Plus motor available on the larger E-Revox 3 26 will provide a maximum output of 50 Nm and a max speed of up to 25 km/h, as usual. Since weight plays an important role on kids eMTB’s, both models come specced with compact 400 Wh batteries.
