Maximum power, low weight, innovative appearance: the Chinese e-bike motor DJI Avinox was the star of the last Eurobike. Now the bike manufacturer Unno is presenting an e-MTB with the new super drive, which we have already subjected to the extensive BIKE test. With the Mith, the Spaniards present their usual exclusive E-Enduro.

The centrepiece of the Unno Mith is the new DJI Avinox drive. According to Unno, this enables the most compact e-bike frame on the market. With a weight of less than 2.6 kg for the drive unit and 3.74 kg for the 800 Wh battery, the drive unit contributes significantly to the bike's low overall weight of 21.2 kg.


Forbidden Druid CorE and LitE: Even more DJI power

Forbidden Bike is entering the segment of fully-fledged e-mountainbikes with the new Druid E series. The two models Druid LitE and Druid CorE are based on the manufacturer's well-known high-pivot rear triangle, which has now been optimised for use with an electric motor. The much-discussed Avinox system from DJI is used as the drive in both variants.

The Druid CorE is the more robust version with 150 millimetres of rear suspension travel and 160 millimetres at the front. It is equipped with an 800 watt-hour battery and weighs 22.6 kilograms according to the manufacturer. The steering angle of the CorE is 0.6 degrees slacker than the LitE. Fancy a pinch of downhill?


Megamo Reason & Reason Air: DJI the third, please

Spanish manufacturer Megamo is also entering DJI territory with the Reason. The new model should be able to cover both trail and enduro applications thanks to a modular concept. At the heart of the system is a flip chip that allows the geometry of the frame to be adapted to different suspension travel and purposes.

Megamo offers the Reason enduro model in four different carbon and three aluminium versions, while the Reason Air trail version is available in three carbon and two aluminium versions. The enduro model weighs between 20.3 kilos for the top model Megamo Reason Cr 01 and 22.6 kilos for the cheapest aluminium model Reason AL 07, while the trail bike Reason Air weighs between 18.9 and 22.1 kilos.

Prices start at 4999 euros and end at 11,999 euros. Depending on the model variant, different suspension forks and shocks from Fox are used. The top models are equipped with suspension elements from the Factory series, while the more affordable variants come with Performance or Rhythm versions.


Rose Bruce 2025 for dirt & slopestyle: new edition of the test-winning dirt bike

Also new this Wednesday: the Rose Bruce - an old acquaintance. The Bocholt-based supplier can look back on a proud 15 years of experience in the development of dirt bikes. Dirt bikes are currently experiencing something of a second spring, as a pump track or dirt spot has sprung up in every second village in recent years.

So it's only fitting that Rose is relaunching the Bruce for the start of the bike season. Our test of the predecessor model proved that the dirt bike can deliver value for money. Patricia Druwen and Tobey Miley, among others, regularly demonstrate on the big jumps of the Crankworx courses that, in the right hands, the Rose Bruce can also master slopestyle at the highest level. Whether trick fireworks on the dirtline or flow on the pump track: in its latest development stage, the Rose Bruce is set to attract even more bikers.


Moustache Lundi 20 Cargo: Compact e-cargo bike with a new frame

With the Lundi 20 Cargo, Moustache Bikes presents the further development of the popular 20-inch longtail cargo bike. With a new frame platform, well thought-out details and a comprehensive range of accessories, it is designed to be even more versatile, according to the manufacturer. The Lundi 20 Cargo is said to be one of the most compact e-cargo bikes on the market and offers a spacious and versatile loading area on the elongated rear. With an overall length of 185 centimetres, it takes up no more space than a classic 28-inch bike. The permissible total weight is up to 200 kilograms.

Moustache has redesigned the front part of the frame with a lower step-through for easy and safe mounting and dismounting. Thanks to triple-reinforced tubes, a high level of frame rigidity is achieved despite the low step-through height. The new frame thus combines suitability for everyday use with stability even with a high payload.

Maik Schröder was born in East Westphalia and prefers to ride through the countryside on his gravel bike. The tour can also include a culinary stop to fortify himself for the next few kilometres. Even if there are few metres of altitude to conquer in the flatlands, he has the ambitious goal of completing a Transalp one day. As online editor, he is responsible for creating digital editorial content such as news reports, new products and event coverage.
