Key points
Primary design brief being “integration”
Bosch motor which produces 85Nm and up to 340% assistance
Comes with a Bosch 750Wh battery
Revolutionary design rear suspension is fully integrated
A clean solution to route cables directly in the handlebar
The rear fenders come with integrated LED lights
Premium price eMTB
With the launch of the new Scott Patron eRide, it appears that the Swiss brand has redesigned the ebike with a primary design brief being “integration”.
The new e-MTB not only sees the top of the range model supporting a custom Fox Nude rear shock incorporated inside the top tube, the cables and battery are also concealed, and the motor sits inside the frame which provides many benefits such as keeping the engine, a vital part of any ebike, well protected.
Bosch Performance CX Smart System
The Bosch motor comes with 85Nm and up to 340% assistance and totally new software that amplifies this natural feeling. The motor is one of the key elements on any E-MTB and is well protected from impacts. The frame acts like a nest with the motor cradled on top for natural support.
The 750Wh battery
The bike will come with the new PowerTube 750 battery regardless of frame size, and Scott states, you can get 100km or 2000m of elevation out of a single charge on eco mode or about half of that if you go full turbo.
160MM OF DREAMY SUPPORT
The Patron comes with a completely new and revolutionary design. The rear suspension is fully integrated into the frame and gives 160mm of travel. More than a design element, the shock integration gives space to the other elements such as the motor, the battery, and a water bottle. Easy to access, the shock comes with our TwinLoc technology to lock the suspension directly from the handlebar for optimal pedaling efficiency.
NICE AND TIDY
Electric mountain bikes have a crowded handlebar, between the brakes, dropper post, gears, drive unit cables, remote and suspension lockout, that’s a lot of cables. The Syncros Engineering team together with the SCOTT team worked on a clean solution to route cables directly in the handlebar for a clean finish.
SMART INTEGRATED SOLUTION
The new LED controller and Kiox 300 display are on the bars, which connect via Bluetooth along with the motor which connects to the eBike Flow app for firmware updates and customisation.
A front and a rear fender are delivered with the bike, both fenders are tailor made for the Patron for a clean and perfect adjustment. For optimal safety, the rear fenders come with integrated LED lights that are directly powered by the motor battery. A cable is already routed, and a plug is already mounted on the handlebar for a front light. A range of Syncros accessories are available for the Patron eRIDE such as a kickstand, a rear fender, a rear rack, or an action camera mount.
