Rocky Mountain Instinct Powerplay SL Carbon 50 29" E-Bike
[Photos are for illustrative purposes only and may not reflect the actual configuration of this bike model. Please see the description below for exact specifications.]
Less weight, more power! Experience the playfulness of a trail bike with the power of a high-end electric bike. The new lightweight Instinct Powerplay SL is nimble, fun, perfectly balanced and ready to take you further.
At its heart is a lightweight Dyname S4 Lite drivetrain that weighs 30% less than the Dyname 4.0. With 550W of power and 65Nm of torque, it's the top of its class, and it's complemented by a quiet, sleek and fully removable 480Wh battery.
Years of development and experience have delivered precise suspension kinematics and geometry that can be further tuned to your preference with the unique RIDE-4™ system. All you need is a single Allen wrench to select one of 4 configurations. Variability is also offered by the adjustable headset, which adjusts the length of the reach by about 5 mm compared to its neutral setting.
The Smoothlink™ suspension is efficient when pedaling, yet retains compliance and comfort. Because Rocky Mountain has carefully tuned each of the many suspension parameters, their bikes provide a completely unique riding experience.
