Built for the backcountry.

The PowerCell

Swap in seconds. Ride for hours.

The structural PowerCell is the heart of the frame — and it lifts free in one motion. Carry a spare, swap trailside, and keep moving. Charging is just the slow way home.

Under-seat storage compartment
Under-seat

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

A felt-lined cavity beneath the seat swallows a jacket, tools and a spare cell — hidden inside a silhouette that stays pure. Tidy on the outside, generous within.

Ronin ride app
The App

Tune the ride to the rider.

Three ride modes, live range, over-the-air updates. The Ronin app turns your phone into the only dial the bike needs — then gets out of the way.

Maintenance

Less to service. More to ride.

A sealed carbon belt replaces the chain. No oil, no valves, no clutch. The electric drivetrain asks for almost nothing — so you can give it everything.
