Light e-MTBs with a small battery and throttled drive are specialists for sporty bikers. The Rotwild takes it to the extreme as a thoroughbred downhill bike.

Rarely have the opinions after our practical tests been so contradictory. The spontaneous reactions ranged from "not at all" to "mega cool". The reason: the geometry of the enduro-freeride hybrid (the G in the name stands for gravity) can confidently be described as extreme. At 62.5 degrees, the steering angle is probably the slackest we have ever measured on an E-MTB. The wheelbase is also record-breaking at 1310 millimetres. When gravity pulls wildly enough on the R.G 375, the bike impresses with enormous riding safety and smoothness.

Why not free of charge? Because quality journalism has a price. In return, we guarantee independence and objectivity. This applies in particular to the tests in EMTB. We don't pay for them, but the opposite is the case: we charge for them, namely tens of thousands of euros every year.

With only 375 watt hours, saving power is the order of the day. Thanks to Quick-Release, the battery on the Rotwild can be changed in seconds - perfect for days in the bike park.Photo: Markus Greber With only 375 watt hours, saving power is the order of the day.

Florentin Vesenbeckh has been on a mountain bike since he was ten years old. Even on his very first tour, he focussed on single trails - and even after more than 30 years in the saddle of an MTB, these are still the quintessence of biking for him. He spent his youth competing in various bike disciplines and later his cycling career was characterised by years as a riding technique coach. Professionally, the experienced test editor now focusses on e-mountainbikes. In recent years, the qualified sports scientist and trained journalist has tested over 300 bikes and more than 40 different motor systems in the laboratory and in practice.
