What defines a "full suspension" eBike?
A full suspension eBike has front suspension forks and rear suspension. This lets it handle rough terrain, giving a smoother and more comfortable ride.
Who is a full-suspension e-bike suitable for?
The full-suspension electric mountain bike is equipped with front and rear suspension systems (referred to as full-suspension), a powerful electric drive system (battery, motor), a sturdy off-road frame and tyres with excellent grip.
If you like to ride easily on demanding trails, then a full-suspension electric mountain bike is ideal for you. Roots, rocks and trails are more of a challenge than an obstacle, but either way, you'll have a blast on PVY's full-suspension electric mountain bikes.
How does suspension affect the riding experience?
1. Comfort: The main advantage of a full suspension system is the comfort it provides. By absorbing shocks and vibrations from the terrain, the shock absorber system reduces the stress on the rider's body, resulting in a longer lasting and more enjoyable riding experience.
2. Manoeuvrability: Full suspension improves manoeuvrability by keeping the wheels in close contact with the ground, even on rough surfaces. This improves traction and stability, allowing the rider to tackle challenges with confidence.
3. Performance: The increased traction and handling from the full suspension system translates into better overall performance. Riders are able to maintain higher speeds, tackle steeper climbs, and descend with greater confidence.
4. Reduces fatigue: Full suspension reduces fatigue by minimising the impact of rough terrain on the rider's body, allowing for long rides without discomfort.
