Scott Voltage eRIDE 900 Tuned Review

The TQ HPR 50 is not one of the powerhouses on the market. The somewhat low torque engine could use a bit more support, especially on steep climbs. The motor control of TQ conveys a very natural riding experience. The harmonious power delivery is an ace up the sleeve of the HPR 50. The short range unfortunately limits the tour radius quite significantly.

The very good chassis with 160 mm travel in the front and 155 mm rear hub also proves to have a lot of resilience even on rougher terrain. Thanks to the solid power, the SRAM brakes can be counted on in the upper class segment. With four pistons and 200 millimeter rotors , Scott won't take any chances in that area. At the drivetrain components and the rest of the parts, Scott goes all-in and only uses outstanding parts. The flat head tube angle and long wheelbase provide riding stability due to the 63,9° angle. The bottom bracket is high, which costs handling points. This tends to make the rider stand on the bike. On other EMTBs it feels better integrated. On the scale, the Voltage eRIDE 900 Tuned makes a good figure with 18,6 kg. Most All Mountains are significantly heavier.
