The Open / Threshold lever allows riders to switch from a more sensitive and active setting to a firmer, more efficient pedalling mode, without fully locking out the suspension.
SRAM Eagle 90 rear derailleur
The 1x12 rear derailleur delivers precise and consistent shifting even under load thanks to the new T-Type Actuation, developed specifically for Eagle Transmission drivetrains. The hangerless Full Mount design increases stiffness and impact resistance while improving alignment and long-term reliability. Its fully rebuildable construction features replaceable components for enhanced durability. A solution engineered to deliver precision, robustness and reliable shifting in every condition, even under full load.

The Proxim Altius Custom Ducati saddle, specifically developed for e-MTB use, combines ergonomics, support and comfort to provide greater pedalling stability and confidence on more technical sections. The padding is designed to reduce pressure points while maintaining a high level of comfort even on longer rides.
Completing the setup, the KS Rage-i 2.0 dropper post features a new hydraulic system for smoother and more precise operation. With up to 190 mm of travel on size S3 and 170 mm on sizes S1 and S2, it allows the saddle to be lowered quickly, increasing freedom of movement and improving control of the e-MTB when the trail becomes more technical.
FSA NS i30 Alloy Wheels
Specifically designed for e-MTB use, the FSA NS i30 Alloy are an ultra-robust aluminium wheelset engineered to deliver strength, stiffness and reliability even in the most demanding riding conditions. The Full 29” setup, paired with 2.4” tyres, prioritises rolling efficiency, stability and obstacle clearance, delivering a smoother, safer and more controlled ride even on rough terrain. The asymmetric aluminium rim with a 30 mm internal width optimises spoke tension, improving precision and handling control even under motor assistance. Tubeless compatibility also helps increase grip, comfort and puncture protection.
SRAM Maven Base brakes
A braking system engineered to deliver high power and consistent control for modern enduro riding. The four 18 mm pistons and DirectLink lever provide smooth, progressive and consistent braking, while the stiff caliper improves heat management even on the longest descents. Adjustment is simple and effective thanks to tool-free Lever Reach Adjust, allowing the lever distance to be quickly adapted without tools, Contact Point Adjust is not available on the Base version. Combined with 200 mm SRAM HS2 rotors, featuring a thicker 2.0 mm construction and optimised heat management, the system delivers increased braking power, reduced noise and greater resistance to brake fade.
