IXGO MT-E FOUR +

The 2024 IXGO MT-E FOUR + model is a versatile e-bike characterised by its robust construction and high-quality features. The Wave frame offers both stability and comfort and contributes to a total weight of 27 kg. The maximum permissible weight is 180 kg, making the bike suitable for heavier loads too. The bike is powered by a Bosch Performance Line CX mid-drive motor with an output of 250 W and a torque of 85 Nm. The motor is powered by a Bosch PowerTube battery with a capacity of 750 Wh, which, together with the Bosch Intuvia 100 display and a 4 A charger, ensures an efficient power supply.

The braking system consists of a combination of a Shimano BR-MT420 4-piston brake at the front and a Shimano BR-MT410 at the rear, complemented by Shimano BL-MT401 brake levers. Both brake discs are Shimano SM-RT30 models with a diameter of 180 mm and feature a Centre Lock system. Gear changes are controlled via a Shimano Deore SL-M5130-R shifter, which offers 10 gears. The Suntour Mobie25 AIR LOR fork, with 100 mm of travel, ensures a comfortable ride on uneven terrain.

The bike is fitted with a Litemove RX-E50 front light with 50 lux and an integrated Herrmans H-Cargo rear light, which ensure good visibility. The pedals are made of aluminium with a 9 mm steel axle, whilst the Matrix crankset features 38 teeth and a length of 165 mm. The cassette, also from Shimano, offers a range of 11–43 teeth.

The handlebars are Ergotec Matrix M-Bar, 700 mm wide, with a 16-degree bend and a 34 mm rise. The stem is angle-adjustable and also from Ergotec, whilst the headset is semi-integrated and tapered. The rims are Mach1 Cross-R27 with 32 holes, fitted with Schwalbe Smart Sam Performance tyres in Bronze Skin. The hubs are by Shimano and fitted with thru-axles and Centre Lock.

The saddle is a Selle Royal Viaggio, mounted on a By Schulz G.2 ST parallelogram suspension seat post, which provides additional comfort. Aluminium mudguards from Matrix and an SKS Chainblade chain guard round off the spec. An Ursus King kickstand ensures the bike stands securely. Priced at 4399 EUR, the IXGO MT-E FOUR + offers a comprehensive package of high-quality technology and well-thought-out features for discerning cyclists.
