"Lightweight, nimble, and agile: these are not words we usually associate with e-bikes, where a motor and battery often add bulk. You might think that would make an e-bike the opposite of what a cross-country or trail rider wants, but build it right and it can enhance the experience rather than hinder it. Enter the Scott Lumen eRIDE: a bike with a carbon frame that keeps it featherlight (relatively) and responsive, and a compact, whisper-quiet motor that gives your ride a little extra kick."
"Scott equipped this XC/trail bike with a few clever touches to elevate the ride. The integrated suspension hides the shock inside the frame, offering 130mm of travel that's nearly invisible at first glance. The fork adds another 140mm of travel, and with Scott's TwinLoc system you can adjust both on the fly switching between traction control (shortened travel) or a full lockout for efficient pedaling when the trail smooths out."
"But the Lumen's best trick lies in its motor choice. The TQ HPR50 system is praised for how naturally it amplifies your effort and never overpowering it. It feels like you, just in top form: stronger on climbs, smoother on flats, and grinning the whole way, with almost no motor noise to pull you out of the moment. The smaller, lighter battery keeps the overall weight low (41 lbs on our test model), preserving that crisp handling XC riders expect."
The Scott Lumen eRIDE 920 is a lightweight, nimble XC/trail full-suspension e-bike built around a carbon frame and a compact TQ HPR50 motor. Integrated suspension hides a 130mm rear shock and pairs with a 140mm fork; Scott's TwinLoc system lets riders switch between shortened-travel traction mode and full lockout for efficient climbs. The TQ HPR50 amplifies pedaling naturally with minimal noise, offering stronger climbs and smoother flats while keeping handling crisp thanks to a smaller, lighter battery and a test weight around 41 lbs. Some components such as tires and hubs are entry-level upgrade candidates. Current pricing includes notable discounts.
