Wow, what a thing! The new Bulls E-Stream EVO AM FIT 29 comes with the Panasonic GX motor and up to 925 watt hours of battery capacity - with an enormous 90 newton metres of torque, it has power en masse. Combine the impressive drive power with a 150-millimetre chassis, a solid aluminium frame and 29-inch wheels and you have the ultimate e-mountainbike for touring riders. The watt-hour monster eats laps of the local mountain for breakfast. The E-Stream can only show what it can really do on extended tours with many metres of altitude. Cost point: 6499 euros.

Pioneering through FIT integration
One electronic highlight is the installed FIT system. Originally developed by Flyer, the control unit acts as a communication interface between electronically controlled e-bike parts from lights to sat nav and the actual e-bike drive. The open communication standard allows a mix of components from different manufacturers.
More battery for longer trail fun
The E-Stream EVO AM FIT 29 is available in three different battery variants (500, 720 or 925 watt hours), all of which are compatible with each other. Apart from that, there are no different equipment variants of the E-Fullys from Bulls. With a price starting at €6499, it comes with a Shimano XT groupset, thick Rockshox ZEB fork and a carbon handlebar/stem unit. To summarise, the solid equipment, the very powerful motor and the extreme battery capacity qualify the E-Stream as the perfect touring e-MTB. However, the bulky aluminium frame, the robust components and the large battery are likely to add quite a bit to the overall weight, which puts the brakes on playful trail fun.
