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.

The result is a bike that’s resilient, adaptable and built to perform, ride after ride.
