I'm on the lookout for an SL ebike over the next couple of months and wanted to see if there are any rumours of anything new coming soon. Also I just love bike gossip
Really interested in the maxon air motor system but it seems like most of the brands are a little bit too expensive for my budget.
Otherwise I really like the look of the new TQ hpr60 motor.
I'd prefer a all mountain - enduro bike but will to go for a shorter travel bike. Main thing is not too expensive (<$10000aud) and sub 21kg
Would love to see the heckler sl with a different motor

Not what you asked, but Levo SLs are on sale here in Mexico. Also, rumor is Levo R is the new Levo SL going forward.

I have a Trek Fuel+ with the new TQ60 motor and 580Wh battery. Absolutely love it. MX build just a tad over 20kg with pedals.

Try looking at this https://www.emtbforums.com/threads/gen-2-trek-fuel-exe-official-thread.43158/

The Yeti SL is a very similar bike and has the same motor. Propain Shresh SL comes with the smaller battery option claimed under 19kg.

Sorry but don't know if any other new bikes on the way. I also test rode the Heckler SL but the Fazua motor reliability issues were a deal breaker.

I’m seriously interested in the Norco Sight TQ. Looks like a ton of fun.

I would expect loads of launches in the next month with Sea Otter and Riva del Garda happening. There’s a new Avinox with lots of new bikes coming and probably more TQ bikes as well.

The Yeti is quite heavy, I tried it and it kinda feels like a full fat.

Look at the Transition Regulator SX, just got it and its incredible at 19.4kg. The Treks are amazing too, but too expensive.
