Features and technologies

Dyname™ S4 Lite

The Dyname™ S4 Lite motor is 30% lighter than Dyname™ 4.0. It's smooth and efficient, offering category-leading Peak Power (700W) and Torque (75 Nm).

 

Removable battery

The Instinct Powerplay SL features a 480 Wh, two-bolt, fully removable battery. It’s sleek, quiet, rattle-free, and streamlined.

 

RIDE-4™ adjustment system

The RIDE-4 adjustment system allows riders to quickly fine-tune their geometry with a single Allen key. Four configurations are possible thanks to one rotating chip.

 

Proportional rear center

The 10 mm difference in chainstay length between frame sizes makes the Instinct Powerplay SL’s handling characteristics feel balanced and stable.

 

Reach adjust headsets

Fine tune your ride with center, +/- 5mm offset options.

 

Smoothlink™ suspension

Smoothlink suspension is efficient yet supple when you’re on the pedals and across a wide range of gears. It features a controlled end-stroke and a rate-curve that feels more capable than the travel would suggest.

 

Size Specific Tune

Size Specific Tune ensures that riders of all sizes get the right balance of small-bump compliance, mid-stroke support, and end-stroke progressiveness. Our design team does custom shock tunes based on real world field testing, and adjusts each tune for specific frame sizes.

 

SMOOTHWALL™ Carbon

Smoothwall carbon uses one of the world’s most sophisticated carbon processes to deliver industry leading stiffness-to-weight, ride quality, and durability.
