"A Mahle controller sits on the toptube. Ridley designed the E-Grifn to be identical to the rest of their Grifn lineup. The geometry matches, and the visual differences between the bikes are pretty minimal. However, there are definitely some slight differences, such as a larger downtube to house the battery. Certain mounting points have also been removed in favor of internal electronics."
"Also, the smallest size for the E-Grifn is XS, whereas the Ridley offers the Grifn in XXS. Along with the X20 driveunit, B&R's special Ridley E-Grifn features a full carbon build (frame, fork, bars) and a 2x SRAM Force AXS groupset. They use aluminum Forza wheels with 32mm tires, and Forza also handles the integrated bar/stem and seatpost. The Ridley E-Grifn is only offered on B&R's European trips."
