As Electric Bike manufacturers are pushing out new models every single week, a new player has emerged with a lineup that’s turning heads. GasGas, traditionally known for its high-performance motocross bikes, has rolled out its MXC range of electric mountain bikes (e-MTBs), blending its motocross heritage with the latest in e-bike technology.

All three bikes in the lineup are designed with carbon fiber

The MXC series, comprising three models, is GasGas’s answer to the growing demand for versatile, high-tech e-MTBs. Each bike in the lineup boasts a carbon fiber frame, known for its lightweight and durable properties. This choice of material signifies a commitment to quality and performance. The MXC models are designed to be agile and capable on various terrains, from challenging mountain trails to relaxing backcountry paths.

A standout feature of the MXC range is the innovative Eagle Powertrain system by Sram, marking Sram’s debut in the e-bike market. This system, developed in collaboration with Brose, balances high performance with reduced weight. The powertrain is paired with a 630-watt-hour battery, ensuring riders can enjoy extended adventures without frequent stops to recharge.

The MXC bikes also showcase a unique wheel setup – a larger 29-inch wheel in the front and a smaller 27.5-inch wheel in the rear. This “mullet” configuration offers a harmonious blend of agility and stability, making the bikes adept at handling a variety of terrains. Moreover, the bikes’ slack geometry provides a playful, responsive riding experience, focusing more on agility than long-distance endurance.

By integrating motocross expertise with cutting-edge e-bike technology, GasGas is poised to make a significant impact on the e-MTB market. While pricing details remain under wraps, the MXC range’s promising features suggest these bikes will be a hit among enthusiasts looking for a blend of performance, technology, and versatility on two wheels.
