Rift AL :e
Agile e-MTB from trail to all-mountain: The RIFT AL:e offers confident handling, lively ride dynamics, and modern geometry. A robust aluminium frame, Bosch Performance Line CX/PX Gen5, and an optional dual-battery configuration with up to 1,345 Wh make it a true long-distance champion.
CORE SELECTION: quick availability, short waiting times, start riding immediately
The CORE Line offers pre-configured focus models at fixed prices, put together by developers, experts, and athletes.
Less thinking. More riding.
Whether it’s a spontaneous after-work spin, a long all-mountain day out, or a trail that racks up more climbing than expected, the RIFT AL:e is built for exactly that. With 140 millimetres of travel, it blends control with a distinctly agile ride. Rough sections are handled cleanly and with confidence. The bike stays composed yet lively, responding directly and precisely, especially through tight corners and playful lines.
How your ride feels is up to you. The 600 Wh battery delivers particularly light, nimble handling. The 800 Wh option comes into its own on longer rides and extended climbs. For truly big days, the RIFT AL:e can be equipped with a dual-battery setup, offering up to 1,345 Wh — ideal for riders who want to keep going without constantly checking battery levels.
The aluminium frame remains reassuringly stable even under heavy loads, comfortably supporting a system weight of up to 150 kilograms. The RIFT AL:e is for riders who spend plenty of time in the saddle, value versatility, and want a bike that performs reliably from the first pedal stroke to the final descent.

* The effective seat angle (D) indicates the actual sitting position on the bike, measured at a reference height (D2). Due to the offset of the seat tube in relation to the bottom bracket, the effective seat angle (D) does not correspond to the seat tube angle (D1). The effective seat angle (D) is therefore calculated from the intersection of the straight line, starting from the bottom bracket, with the height of the saddle rail (D2). The height of the saddle rail (D2) corresponds to typical reference sizes for the respective frame sizes.
** Left BB Drop with 29“ front and rear with Flipchip low, right BB Drop when 29“ in front and 27,5“ in rear with flip chip high
*** STR: Higher number indicates more upright sitting posture
