Exhilaration everywhere

A thrilling 160mm full-carbon eMTB, engineered to be ridden hard, fast and without compromise. Combining proportional geometry with size-specific tuning Karve RSX delivers perfectly balanced handling for every rider. Confidence-inspiring and relentlessly capable, it’s built for those who demand more from every trail. Wherever you point it – steep descents, technical climbs or demanding back-country terrain – it delivers the poise, power and control to hold its line when it matters most. Precise handling, powerful support and an assured, planted feel let you press on, commit fully and carry speed where others hold back. Designed, developed and proven in Britain’s hard country — where riding is never easy – it reflects a simple principle: when conditions are toughest, design has to be right. The result is a bike that’s resilient, adaptable and built to perform, ride after ride.
