Lightrider E Ultimate

from CHF 5'990.00


The lightest full-suspension e-mountain bike in the world, developed in collaboration with maxon, is pure Swissness! With a weight of less than 15 kg, the Lightrider E Ultimate rides like a mountain bike without a motor and is also visually almost indistinguishable from it. It offers riding fun for all and is suitable due to the high agility and the frame size available from XS especially for smaller and lighter riders.

Pure Swissness

With the Lightrider E Ultimate Thömus launches the lightest full-suspension e-mountain bike in the world. The super-light Ultra High Modulus carbon frame draws on over 30 years of bike building experience. The maxon BIKEDRIVE AIR drive system is also a lightweight with only 3.5 kilograms - but still convinces with its power of 250W and peaks over 300W at a torque of 40 Nm. The driving feel on the trail is as natural as the Lightrider Worldcup due to the barely noticeable additional weight. However, as soon as it gets steeper on the climb, it feels like a magic hand is gently pushing you - perfect for training or touring in a group. The unique freewheel technology of the maxon BIKEDRIVE AIR e-bike system ensures natural on and off assistance. The result: an e-bike with the perfect balance between weight and agility. In addition, the Lightrider E Ultimate is also offered in an extra small frame size and is therefore ideal for all.
