Meet Alterra

For a long time, the rule for e-bikes was simple: if you wanted more power, you had to accept more bulk. Full-power became synonymous with heavy.
We didn't want to dial back the motor; we wanted to change how a high-performance e-bike actually feels under you. The Alterra is our answer. It packs a massive 130Nm of torque (150Nm in boost) and a long-range 800Wh battery into a silhouette that looks—and rides—like a traditional trail bike.
Built From the Ground Up

This isn't just a frame adapted to a motor. We designed this carbon platform in-house from scratch around the new Avinox M2 and M2S systems. Our goal was simple: give you all the power, with none of the e-bike penalties.

The Alterra is currently in its prototype phase—a key part of the process. This is where the real work happens. We’re riding it, refining it, and making the small changes that define how the bike actually feels on the trail. We’re not rushing to the finish line; we’re making sure the balance is perfect before it reaches you.

Featuring a 160mm fork, 150mm of rear travel, and a dedicated mullet setup, the Alterra sits in that sweet spot between an aggressive trail and a light enduro bike. It’s built to handle hard riding, but still remain responsive, efficient and easy to move around on everyday trails.
All the Power, None of the Bulk

The Alterra starts at 20.5kg—defying the bulk you'd normally expect from the numbers. It’s designed for massive days in the saddle while remaining light and responsive enough to feel natural underneath you. It’s simply more bike, and less machine.
A Different Approach to Suspension

We used a four-bar suspension design with an inverted linkage. Why? It’s not for the sake of doing something different, but because it solves real packaging challenges. It keeps the centre of gravity low, shock neatly tucked away and clears out the front triangle so you can actually fit a full-size water bottle. Because even on an e-bike, that still matters.
