E-Mountain Bikes by Simplon

Feel the call of the mountains, the tingling sensation before the next descent, the pure joy on every trail - with an e-mountainbike from SIMPLON, you can unleash your full potential. Whether it's epic climbs, flowing trails or technical downhills - with strong support, you have more power, more range and even more fun. Conquer new heights, master every line with precision and enjoy the unstoppable feeling of freedom on two wheels. Get on and experience mountain biking in a new way - with e-mountain bikes that are made for real challenges!

What makes an E-MTB with a Pinion drive special?

An E-MTB with a Pinion drive combines motor and gearbox in one compact unit – creating an exceptionally smooth and quiet riding experience. The gears shift precisely and instantly, even under load or when stationary. Maintenance is minimal, since the gearbox is sealed inside the housing and there’s no exposed derailleur.

Another advantage: the consistent power delivery ensures maximum efficiency on steep climbs as well as on long tours.

At SIMPLON, the RAPCON :ePinion embodies exactly that – a quiet, durable and low-maintenance E-MTB with perfectly balanced power for demanding trails and extended rides.

Is an e-mountainbike even worth it?

An e-MTB gives you a tailwind on the mountain, more range and new possibilities on your favourite trails. Sounds good - but is it really worth it? You still pedal yourself, but you get support exactly when you need it. For many, this means longer tours, less exhaustion and more fun on the bike. An e-mountainbike can help you discover new routes or master more challenging terrain. Of course, there is also more technology involved - and the bike is a little heavier. But that also gives you more comfort, more control and more options. Whether for everyday use, trails or Alpine crosses: an e-MTB changes the way you ride. And simply makes more of your day!

How far can you go with your E-MTB on a 500 Wh battery?

The range of your E-MTB depends on many factors – and not just on the battery itself. Terrain, riding style, support level, rider weight, tyre pressure, temperature, and even wind can make a noticeable difference. That’s why general range figures are often only rough guidelines.

For orientation: a battery with around 500 Wh capacity typically provides 50 to 100 kilometres of range, depending on conditions – usually less on rough terrain and significantly more on flat routes. This value serves many riders as a reference point to better understand battery performance.

At SIMPLON, we rely on state-of-the-art drive systems – each perfectly matched to its intended use:

  • TQ-HPR60: Compact, quiet, and equipped with a 360 Wh battery – ideal for riders who appreciate a natural riding feel, low weight, and particularly smooth power delivery. You’ll find it in our RAPCON :eTQ.

  • Bosch Performance Line PX / CX: With a 540 Wh battery, this drive unit offers powerful support and high efficiency – featured in the CURE :e.

  • Pinion MGU E1.12: The innovative motor-gearbox unit combines drive and shifting in one system and, with its 800 Wh battery, delivers maximum endurance – used in the RAPCON :ePinion.

How far you actually get depends entirely on your riding style. Those who use the support modes wisely, check tyre pressure regularly, and ride efficiently can significantly increase their range.

Tip: With a Range Extender or Dual Battery, you can boost your range even further – perfect for long tours or multi-day adventures.

Which E-MTB motor is right for you?

At SIMPLON, you’ll find E-MTBs with different drive systems – from TQ to Pinion to Bosch. Each motor has its own strengths:

  • TQ drive: Extra quiet, lightweight and with a very natural riding feel. Ideal for sporty riders who want an E-MTB that rides almost like a classic mountain bike – for example, the RAPCON :eTQ.

  • Pinion drive: Combines motor and gearbox in one unit. This ensures smooth power transfer and minimal maintenance – perfect for long tours with the RAPCON :ePinion.

  • Bosch drive: Delivers powerful support and impressive range. Perfect if you’re looking for lots of power and endurance – for example, with the CURE :e.

29’ or Mullet - which wheel setup suits you?

29-inch wheels are already well established in the mountain bike sector - and for good reason: they roll more easily over obstacles, offer more traction and provide a safe, stable ride, especially on the front wheel. Those who prefer a more agile and playful ride, on the other hand, should take a look at the mullet version: Here, a 29‘ front wheel meets a 27.5’ rear wheel - for more manoeuvrability on technical trails. Our RAPCON :ePinion and RAPCON :eTQ give you the choice - depending on your riding style and intended use.

Hardtail or full-suspension bike: Which E-MTB suits your routes better?

A hardtail eMTB is light, direct and efficient - ideal for tours on gravel and forest trails. A full-suspension eMTB gives you more comfort and control on technical trails and descents. Both types have their strengths - the decisive factor is where and how you ride. Find out here which type of e-MTB suits your riding style and goals.

full-suspension E-MTBs: Maximum control off-road

Do you want maximum performance on technical trails? A full-suspension e-MTB is the first choice if you are looking for comfort, traction and riding fun off-road. Thanks to the full suspension, you can master roots, rocks and descents with confidence - and stay in control at all times.

At SIMPLON, you can get full-suspension e-MTBs with two different motors - tailored to your riding style:

A full-suspension e-mountainbike shows its strengths especially when the ground gets rougher. Thanks to the interplay between the front and rear suspension, both wheels remain in contact with the ground even on bumps, rocks or landings. This not only provides more control and safety - you also ride noticeably more efficiently and relaxed. Even at high speeds in technical terrain, the bike remains stable and predictable. On long tours and difficult passages, the full-suspension bike offers more comfort and less fatigue.

And because you can also choose the right setup with a SIMPLON full-suspension e-MTB, your bike adapts exactly to your requirements - regardless of whether you are a sporty, ambitious or simply adventurous rider.

HARDTAIL E-MOUNTAINBIKES

E-MTB hardtail: light, agile, efficient on any trail

E-MTB hardtails are characterised by their lightweight design and high agility. Without the additional suspension of a full-suspension bike, they are particularly direct and manoeuvrable, making them ideal for fast trails and less technically demanding routes. Their low weight ensures greater efficiency on climbs and gives you a better riding experience on flowing sections. Thanks to their simple construction and low maintenance, hardtails are the perfect choice for riders looking for a dynamic, efficient bike.

The CURE :e offers you all these advantages in a well thought-out package. As the only SIMPLON e-MTB hardtail, it impresses with its clear performance and is specially designed for fast trails and efficient riding technique. It ensures precise control and maximum power on long tours - with minimum weight and easy maintenance.

Advantages at a glance:

  • Light and agile for fast riding and precise control
  • High efficiency on climbs and flowing trails
  • Low weight for less fatigue on long tours
  • Less maintenance required thanks to the absence of rear suspension
  • Direct riding feel and good power transmission on the ground
