Progear E-Vantage 27.5 18" MTB E-Bike Black Shadow

Alloy, The Metal of Choice

The E-Vantage 27.5 18" MTB E-Bike combines robust engineering with practical performance. Its aluminium frame and matching components deliver exceptional strength without excess weight, a critical advantage for mountain biking. This construction philosophy ensures your bike responds precisely to terrain changes while withstanding the demands of trail riding. Built for longevity, the E-Vantage represents a thoughtful investment in a machine designed to perform reliably across countless rides.

EverDrive^® 36v Integrated Battery

Powering the E-Vantage is a sophisticated 36V integrated battery system engineered for sustained performance on demanding terrain. The cells undergo rigorous international safety certification, while an intelligent protection circuit safeguards against overcharge, short circuits, and thermal stress. This combination ensures reliable energy delivery throughout extended rides while maximising battery lifespan—a critical consideration for serious trail riders seeking dependable electric assistance.

Be in Control

The E-Vantage features a comprehensive backlit LCD display integrated with an onboard controller, providing real-time visibility of speed, distance, power assistance level, and battery status. Five selectable assist modes allow you to calibrate motor support to match trail conditions and riding demands—lower settings preserve battery range for extended adventures, while higher modes deliver aggressive acceleration when tackling steep or technical sections.

Front Suspension with lockout

Front suspension geometry on the E-Vantage absorbs impact from rough terrain while maintaining precise ground contact—essential for technical trail navigation. The system works in concert with rear compliance to dampen vibration across both wheels, reducing fatigue during extended rides. A mechanical lockout mechanism allows you to stiffen the front end when transitioning to smoother surfaces or climbing, optimising energy efficiency and control across varying conditions.

Strong Stopping Power

Disc brake technology on the E-Vantage delivers consistent, modulated stopping force across variable trail conditions—a non-negotiable feature for mountain biking safety. Whether navigating steep descents or technical sections, the system provides reliable deceleration with minimal fade, even when wet or muddy. This braking architecture gives you the confidence and control necessary for aggressive terrain riding.

250W EverDrive^® Motor

The integrated 250W EverDrive® motor augments your pedaling effort, enabling sustained speed on flat sections and delivering crucial assistance on steep climbs. This power output strikes an optimal balance—sufficient to meaningfully extend range and reduce fatigue without compromising the riding experience or battery efficiency. The motor seamlessly amplifies your input, allowing you to tackle terrain that would otherwise demand significantly greater physical exertion.

8 Speed Shimano Drivetrain

The E-Vantage employs a Shimano Tourney drivetrain with eight precisely-spaced gears, enabling you to maintain optimal cadence across varied topography. Shimano's Rapid Fire Plus shifters provide intuitive, responsive gear changes—critical when navigating technical sections where split-second adjustments matter. This transmission architecture complements the electric motor, allowing intelligent gear selection to maximise efficiency and control.

Double Wall Rims

Double-wall rim construction provides the structural rigidity essential for mountain biking demands. This design distributes impact loads across a larger surface area, resisting deformation from rocky terrain and root strikes while maintaining true wheel geometry. The reinforced architecture ensures consistent braking performance and reliable spoke tension throughout extended trail sessions.

27.5-inch Tyre

You no longer need to choose between having the speed and handling of a 26” tyre and the traction and evenness of a 29” tyre. Now you can get the best of both worlds. With a 27.5” tyre, you can power through corners as you would with a 26” tyre without sacrificing the traction and smooth ride a 29” tyre would offer.
