Full Power Avinox M2S Drive
The Avinox M2S system delivers 150 Nm of maximum torque, 1300 W of peak power and 250 W of nominal output for strong climbing support and rapid acceleration. Five power modes, including Auto and Boost, let you match assistance to the terrain. The AXS derailleur is powered directly from the motor and uses SmoothShift for consistent, load tolerant gear changes. The DP100 OLED display sits cleanly on the top tube and pairs with a wireless controller for simple mode changes. The 800 Wh internal battery provides long range performance with fast charging for quick turnaround between rides.
Balanced 160 mm Suspension
The RockShox Lyrik Select fork and Super Deluxe Select rear shock are tuned specifically for the Karve RS. The 160 mm travel front and rear gives the bike the control and support needed for enduro level terrain while keeping the ride lively on flowing trails.
Carbon And Alloy Chassis
A uni directional carbon fibre front triangle keeps weight low and stiffness high, while the 6061 T6 aluminium rear triangle adds durability. Proportional sizing ensures consistent handling across all frame sizes, and the geometry flip chip lets you fine tune the ride for different terrain.
Trail Ready Components
SRAM Eagle 90 mechanical T Type shifting provides reliable 1×12 performance, and SRAM Maven Base brakes deliver strong, consistent stopping power. The 29 in wheels roll fast and smooth, with MX compatibility for riders who want a mullet setup. The full insertion dropper post offers size specific drop for confident movement on steep ground.
