Avinox M2/M2S, 800 Wh, aluminum and carbon builds, 160/150 mm travel and advertised pricing from €4,499. A critical look at the offer and its trade-offs.
The new Rossignol After Hours comes with Bosch Performance Line CX, a removable 800 Wh battery, 160/150 mm of travel and an aluminum frame. It aims to convince through everyday riding rather than win the headline battle.
The new Merida Lithos combines Bosch CX/CX-R, 170/174 mm of travel, a removable 800 Wh battery and an unglamorous but important idea: durability and proper service support.
The Turbo Levo 4 arrives with a Specialized 3.1 motor, a large battery, plenty of electronics and a substantial price tag. Here is what I would check before spending the money.
Amflow, Megamo, Canyon, Rotwild, YT, Raymon and more: Avinox bikes do not all suit the same rider or involve the same level of risk.
Steppenwolf joins the Avinox line-up and could be one of those quieter brands worth following.
Megamo joins the Avinox wave with a bike that could make a big impact if the price, build and availability are right.
Canyon appears linked to Avinox and the MG concept: this is not just another bike, but a clue to where the mainstream market is heading.
“The eMTBs of 2026 are more powerful, more expensive and wilder than ever: Avinox wants to shake up the market, Bosch refuses to give up, and two rare surprises appear that many riders did not even know existed.”
Avinox raises the stakes with the new M2 and M2S: up to 150 Nm, 1,500 W in Boost and IP66 protection, challenging Bosch, Shimano and Brose in the eMTB motor market.
