Rocky Mountain | Instinct Powerplay SL
With the new Rocky Mountain Instinct Powerplay SL, the Canadian manufacturer takes its sporty approach to a whole new level, introducing their in-house motor system in a fresh new format as a mid-drive, medium-power eMTB. At the core of the bike is the custom Dyname S4 Lite motor, which delivers 65 Nm of torque through an additional sprocket, transferring force to the chain without acting directly on the cranks, thus giving engineers more freedom with the suspension kinematics. The motor support is very natural and the system provides a powerful push even at low cadences. With six basic settings and four individually adjustable support levels, the system offers plenty of customisation options – the ideal match for sporty riders who enjoy pushing themselves on climbs to fully benefit from the agile handling on descents. With its slim silhouette and lightweight, easily removable 430 Wh battery, the Instinct Powerplay SL promises easy day-to-day handling alongside playful trail performance. With its lively character, it feels more like a lightweight eMTB than a full-power model. The finely-tuned suspension and excellent mix between agility and composure make the Instinct Powerplay SL a top choice for e-bikers seeking manageable power on the climbs paired with a fun, capable ride on the way down.
