Top components at a favourable price - these are the main arguments in favour of mail-order bikes. Bärenbikes are launching with a special service offer.

The top model in the E-MTB line from newcomer Bärenbikes from Carinthia is the Bären Grizzly, a full-suspension bike for all-mountain and enduro use. The Rockshox suspension components provide 150 millimetres of suspension travel at the front and rear.

Bärenbikes uses Tektro Orion 4P four-piston stoppers as brakes. The Grizzly is powered by the E8000 drive from Shimano. In order to achieve the low weight of 21.5 kilograms (manufacturer's specification), Bärenbikes consistently relies on external battery solutions. The Grizzly costs 4299 euros.

By integrating the brand into the logistics of a large international lighting manufacturer, the Austrians aim to offer a particularly reliable delivery service. In the event of a warranty claim, the bike will even be picked up immediately. In addition to the city and trekking models, a hardtail rounds off the Bärenbikes range.
