Scott has launched a new urban electric bike with a low step-through, full suspension frame. The Scott E-Ville is, according to the brand, designed as a single bike for commuting, trips across town or longer recreational rides, with the higher of the two specs, priced at £4,999 / €5,299, offering off-road capability.
There’s rapid saddle height adjustment thanks to a dropper seatpost, which Scott says also makes it easier to put a foot down when you have to stop. The bar height can be changed thanks to a variable height stem.
Scott E-Ville details
Scott has enclosed the E-Ville’s rear shock within the frame’s seat tube, where it claims it’s protected from dirt and debris, which it says will help to reduce longer-term maintenance needs.
The E-Ville provides electric support via a Bosch Performance Line CX motor, which offers up to 100Nm torque, while there’s a choice of 720Wh and 800Wh removable batteries with on-bike or off-bike charging and you can also fit a range extender if needed.
The E-Ville’s alloy frame has a 160kg weight limit, so there’s plenty of capacity for load lugging on the rear rack. Scott says that you can add a trailer if you need to transport more.
The bike comes with integrated Lezyne front and rear StVZO lights and with Curana mudguards for all-weather riding. There’s a Bosch display integrated into the handlebars and a built-in SP Connect mount, allowing you to attach your phone to the stem
Scott E-Ville specs and prices
Scott will sell the E-Ville in two specs. The E-Ville 10 SUV is designed to take in extra-urban and trail riding, while the E-Ville 20 is more geared to urban and on-tarmac use.
