SCOTT Contessa Patron eRIDE 910 Bike

Accessing the shock via the top tube area is facilitated through a hatch. By rotating the dial with your fingers or a coin, it will unlock the mechanism and gives access to the shock. This makes it easy to adjust rebound, compression, shock pressure, and for installing or replacing the cable for our TwinLoc Suspension System.

Same as the shock, the battery is easy to access and remove. The battery can be removed in 3 steps.

For the optimal performance of a suspension shock, power transfer must be the most direct possible. What we want to avoid are any inefficient directional movements, in other words, lateral movements (sideways to the direction of travel) as the shock goes through its compression. 

Having an integrated shock allows us to improve this in several ways. Firstly, the frame construction around the shock and with the trunnion mount can be designed to be much more rigid, reducing movement and fostering more efficient power transfer. We can also add much larger bearings to the seat tube pivot, further reinforcing this area and reducing any unnecessary motion. Our integrated Suspension technology also helps us to engineer frames with a lower motor and battery placement which lowers the center of gravity. As a result, the bike benefits from better handling, and a more stable, confidence inspiring ride for the end user. 

The motor is one of the key element on any E-MTB, therefore we wanted to protect it from impacts. On the Patron eRIDE, the motor is vertically positioned and supported from underneath. The frame acts like a nest with the motor cradled on top for a natural support.

This construction also places the motor as low and centered as possible for an improved weight distribution.  The centered mass improves the handling and the bike grip on trails.

A front and a rear fender are delivered with the bike, both fenders are tailor made for the Patron for a clean and perfect adjustment. For optimal security, the rear fenders come with integrated LED lights that are directly powered by the motor battery. A cable is already routed, and a plug already mounted on the handlebar for afront light. A range of Syncros accessories are available for the Patron eRIDE such as a kickstand, a rear fender, a rear rack or an action camera mount.

Electric mountain bikes have a crowded handlebar, between the brakes, dropper post, gears, drive unit cables, remote and suspension lockout - that’s a lot of cables. Syncros’s designers worked on the shape to allow the cables to flow under the bar and around the sides of the stem before disappearing into the headset with integrated plastic parts to keep it clean and efficient. This avoids bends or kinks in the cables and provides a minimalist front end.  All our bars and stems feature multiple options for computer, light and camera mounts both on top or under the bar.
