Danny MacAskill often talks about Ebike, very often! He even became completely addicted. In truth, the only time Danny doesn't talk about Ebike is when he's riding it. And when he rides an Ebike, Danny rides a long, long time, which partly prompted us to redesign the Heckler to go even further, higher, faster and in an ever more playful way.
This latest generation of Heckler offers an interchangeable battery with a larger capacity (720Wh against 504Wh) to further extend the possibilities, making the most remote and less exploited paths accessible, thus allowing you to explore more in less time.
We like to think that what sets our e-bikes apart from the rest of the market is handling on the trail and Danny knows what he's talking about when it comes to how it feels on a bike… We pay special attention to the design in carbon and the design of our frames to ensure the performance and reliability necessary for long, even very long Ebike rides. No shortcuts have been taken for the choice of components and your only concern will be to get home before dark rather than apprehend a mechanical problem. The evolution of the geometry results from a series of tests and field feedback placing the playful side at the center of attention, whether it is behavior uphill or downhill. And of course, the legendary VPP suspension has been perfectly optimized for electric riding. 150mm of rear travel (combined with a 160mm fork) stands out as an ideal configuration for a bike determined to soften the biggest days, offering slightly less anti squat for ultimate traction against all the climbs that could take you. to attempt.
The new Heckler is available in mixed or 29” wheel format. A wide choice of size, from S (which retains 27.5” wheels) to XXL will accommodate every rider. The carbon frame is offered in C and CC versions, accompanied by a wide choice of mountings.
The only thing left for us now is how to help Danny get off the hook!
