When efficient meets playful

• Light and slim frame design

  The VAM SL 8.7 is engineered with a flex pivot rear triangle that combines optimal flex behaviour with a lightweight carbon layup. The efficient but playful bike character will make you pace up hills while also giving you courage to descend fast due to the e-MTB’s downhill capabilities. With our new flex pivot design, we were able to reduce the amount of frame material, bearings, and bolts. This results in our lightest e-MTB frame: the 8. series frame weighs 2,545 g (size M, including linkage and bolts). On top, it gives the rear triangle its seamless look. The clean design of our VAM SL 8.7 continues at the down tube, as the fully integrated battery ensures a slim look while further reducing weight.

• Training made easy and fun

  Thanks to the e-drive, you will ride more trails in the same time. With its 125 mm suspension platform and direct handling, the VAM SL 8.7 makes you enjoy and ride your trails in a new way, more like being on a giant pump track. The result: better riding skills and endless fun. Besides, you can make most of the FAZUA system by connecting it with your bike computer. It allows you to monitor cadence and power output for purposeful training. Combined with the efficient e-support, it is easier than ever to precisely ride at your performance threshold, keeping your heart rate at the perfect level for aerobic training sessions. You don’t want or need any rest days but will find yourself riding on days that would usually keep you away from it.

• Efficient FAZUA e-drive

  The light and efficient FAZUA Ride 60 makes you feel like having your legs best day. With 60 Nm torque and a maximum power output of 450 W, it pushes you forward while providing the feeling of a natural ride with minimal noise distractions. The drive system features three riding modes and an additional boost function that briefly increases the power output. You can also individualize the motor support via the FAZUA App by setting parameters like Max Power, Support Relation and Ramp-up based on your preferences. The integrated battery can be charged via the charging port at the seat tube. You will be surprised how far 430 Wh will take you. Worst case, the VAM SLs efficiency and lightweight also allow you to pedal home with an empty battery.
