KTM Macina Lycan 2022

The 2022 KTM Macina Lycan is a rare all-mountain eMTB that stuck with 27.5in wheels while most of the market chased 29ers. On KTM's Straight-Line-Link (SLL-E) frame with 140mm of travel front and rear, it aims to be the playful, chuckable counterpoint to the 29in Macina Chacana trail bikes and the longer, more aggressive Macina Kapoho enduro platform.All six 2022 builds run the Bosch Performance Line CX Gen 4 motor (85Nm). The 771 and 772 step up to the Bosch Smart System with a 750Wh PowerTube and the top-loading PTTL battery, while the value-focused 671 LTD keeps the older non-smart system and a 625Wh pack with a Purion display. Spec separates the trims cleanly: the 771 gets a FOX 34 fork, FOX DPS shock and SRAM DB8 brakes; the 772 and 671 LTD drop to a Suntour XCR 34 fork and RockShox Deluxe Select+ shock. The women's Glorious editions mirror the standard builds with a dedicated saddle and colourway.All builds are on the heavy side for the category at roughly 24.9 to 25.9kg, and the Schwalbe Nobby Nic Performance tyres are a fair-weather choice rather than an aggressive all-mountain pairing. Geometry is moderate by 2022 standards, with a 66 to 67 degree head angle and a consistent 450mm chainstay across every size.Now discontinued, the Lycan is worth considering used for riders who specifically want a nimble 27.5in Bosch eMTB with a big 750Wh battery on the 771 and 772. Pricing here is drawn from mainland-Europe RRP in euros, as no UK/GBP listing was available at source, so treat second-hand values accordingly.

Geometry read

What the numbers mean on the trail

Computed from this bike's geometry, spec and build kit — reach, wheelbase, chainstay, head and seat angles, travel, motor, weight and the fork/tyre/brake spec — and worked out per size, because a fixed chainstay can make an S and an XL feel very different.

Size

Setting

Descending

A solid all-round descender (67° head angle, 140mm) — capable in the rough and steep without being an all-out bruiser.

Playfulness

A fair bit of pop, but happiest on flowing trail rather than trials moves.

Size balance

Rear-long with a planted front in L (FC:RC 1.65) — easy to weight the front and quick to turn, though it can feel light at the back at real speed.

Technical climbing

Climbs well — a 74° seat keeps the front planted. 600W of peak power and 85Nm of torque — a strong full-power motor.

Best suited toAll-round trail riding across mixed terrain.

No single standout trait — a balanced, versatile bike.

Watch out forNo major red flags in the L geometry.

The numbers are well balanced for its category.
