Spectral:ON CFR

You just might be looking at the lightest carbon, full-power eMTB chassis in existence. At just 6.3 pounds (sans battery), the Spectral:ON CFR kicks sand in the eye of conventional wisdom by proving that it’s possible to build an enduro-tough frame without packing on the pounds. Top-shelf composite technology, burly suspension hardware, plus a good dose of obsessive-compulsive engineering all add up to a brawler of a bike that feels remarkably light and playful on the trail.

Mileage matters but strapping the biggest possible battery onto a bike can create a top-heavy, unbalanced bike that handles like a high-speed train wreck. So instead, we developed our own unique battery that not only boosts your mileage, but also delivers brilliant handling. We started by horizontally aligning the battery’s fuel cells, improving weight distribution within the battery. Next, we optimized battery placement within the frame itself. Tucking the battery below and in front of the Shimano EP8 motor (instead of above it), we lowered the Spectral:ON’s center of gravity and made it an absolute ground-hugging, ripper of a bike.

Every component on the Spectral:ON delivers true on-trail performance, including Shimano’s ingenious EP8 control unit. The minimalist display and handlebar mounted controls let you toggle through different power-assist settings, manage your battery consumption, and dial in your ride without adding any clutter or confusion to the Spectral:ON’s cockpit. Sleek, simple, innovative—just the like the bike itself.
