Crave CRB 2022

The Megamo Crave CRB is the carbon-framed full-suspension all-mountain/enduro eMTB from Spanish brand Megamo, built on its Full Carbon FSC Technology frame with a carbon swingarm. For 2022 it ran a Shimano EP8 motor (85 Nm) fed by an integrated Shimano 630 Wh battery, with 160 mm of rear travel on 29in wheels and 29 x 2.6 tyre clearance. Geometry is shared across both trims and every size: a 65 degree head angle, 76 degree seat angle and 455 mm chainstays, with reach growing 435 / 459 / 489 mm across S/M/L.

The 2022 carbon line consisted of just two trims on that common frame, motor and battery. The CRB 05 (6,199 euros) paired a 150 mm Fox 34 Rhythm fork with a Fox Float DPS shock, a full Shimano Deore 12-speed drivetrain and Shimano MT520 four-piston brakes. The CRB 03 (7,299 euros) stepped up to a 160 mm Fox 38 Factory Kashima fork and Fox Float X Factory shock, with a mixed Shimano XT/Deore drivetrain, Shimano XT M8020 four-piston brakes and a Fox Transfer Kashima dropper. Both roll on 29 x 2.6 Maxxis Minion DHF/DHR II tyres and use the same integrated cockpit and internal cable routing.

This is a discontinued 2022 model. Note that the 2022 CRB used the earlier Shimano EP8 motor with a 630 Wh battery, where the later 2023-2024 Crave CRB moved to the Shimano EP801 motor and a larger 762 Wh pack. The CRB (carbon) badge distinguishes it from the alloy Crave AL, which is a separate frame and canonical entry. Pricing is given in euros as the manufacturer's launch recommended retail price from Megamo's own 2022 model pages; no UK retailer RRP was found, so the pound price is left blank rather than converted. No owner ride or reliability data was gathered for this dossier.
