release by Cycles Devinci

July 10, 2025 - Take your rides to new heights… literally, with the all-new E-Spartan LITE. This new conqueror is the latest member of Devinci’s electric mountain bike family. With 165mm of rear travel and 170mm up front, the E-Spartan Lite is built to turn turbulence into confidence and to perform where it matters most—on burly off-road territory.

Discover the all-new E-Spartan LITE
This platform boasts a G04 6061-T6 Optimum Aluminum frame that’s proudly made in Canada and fully backed by Devinci’s renowned Ride in Peace lifetime warranty. Its electric abilities are powered by Bosch’s Performance Line SX system, the most reliable and efficient light-assist e-MTB drive unit out there. Hidden in the downtube is Bosch’s CompactTube 400 battery, delivering up to 67 km of range on a single charge. Need more? The E-Spartan Lite is fully compatible with the PowerMore 250, Bosch’s range extender that adds an extra 250 Wh of energy.

The E-Spartan Lite has just enough power to deliver a noticeable punch on the way up, without weighing you down on descents. The Bosch Performance Line SX motor and 400Wh battery let you get the most of every ride. No matter how small the window to get out. And it’s compatible with a range extender that adds 250 Wh. So, you can take on proper rides without running out of juice.

How Does it Stand Out?
Weighing in at 47.29 lb,  the E-Spartan Lite is ultra-competitive in the E-Enduro category—perfectly balanced on the descents and just as confident on the way up. Its smooth power delivery is supported by a Split Pivot suspension system, specially tuned for mixed wheels and the added weight of the E-system. The result is a responsive, agile, and stable ride that sticks to your line, no matter where you point it.

German engineering in a Canadian-made frame. Weighing at 4.4 lbs (2.0 kg), Bosch’s lightest drive unit yet, the Performance Line SX delivers 55 to 60 Nm of torque and has a maximum power output of 600 watts. To achieve its light weight, the motor is built around a magnesium housing. The Performance Line SX utilizes Bosch’s smart system, making it compatible with their app eBike Flow and, therefore, fully tunable for the rider’s preferences.

Frame construction
Welded right here in our Canadian Factory, the E-Spartan Lite is made of Optimum G04 6061-T6 Aluminum. The e-MTB optimized Split Pivot suspension system is built around a 205×65 mm rear shock providing 165 mm of rear travel. The rear end of the bike boasts a UDH™ hanger. The medium-sized frame fits a 22oz water bottle, and the overall aesthetics of the chassis are kept clean and discreet with the integrated battery and the internal cable routing.

Shock Tune
Meticulously tuned by our engineers and with the direct support of our original equipment partner Rock Shox, the rear suspension on E-Spartan Lite will be hassle-free right out of the box. Specifically adapted to get the maximum out of the Split Pivot suspension system while accounting for the extra weight of the bike, and the faster overall speed. The result: a supportive ride with the right amount of small bump sensitivity.

Battery
Minimal profile, seamlessly integrated, and compact – these are the defining features of the Bosch CompactTube 400 battery hiding in the E-Spartan Lite. Weighing approximately 1995 grams, this energy powerhouse delivers an impressive 400 watt-hours. With the latest battery cell technology, it stands out as the Bosch eBike battery with the highest energy density.

Range
A full charge will get you approximately 2 hours of riding, 1000 meters of climbing, and an average range of 40 km. Using mainly the ECO mode, the battery will deliver up to 67 km of range. Using primarily the TURBO mode, the system will provide a range of approximately 28 kilometers. The average speed, the assist mode, the weather, the wind, the rider’s weight, and the frequency of stops are all factors that play a role in the energy consumption of the battery. For a more accurate estimate of the available range, use the Bosch Range Assistant. 

We developed the E-Spartan Lite to fully live up to its name. Its predecessors were saluted for their gravity-defying capabilities—and now, it’s better than ever. A qualified long-travel specialist paired with smooth assist, this new e-beast is ready to tackle your most ambitious weekend plans. Back-to-work Monday blues included.
