BE A RIDER,
NOT A PASSENGER...
The capable E-Trail hardtail created for real mountain biking. Born from a British love of the hardtail, and coupled with a lightweight Fazua drive system to maintain the fundamental characteristics that make sliding around the woods so fun. A bike to be cornered, jumped, dropped, and enjoyed... again and again.
Thanks to the lightweight and replaceable battery, RISE can take your riding to the next level with just as much assistance and just as much range as you need. So no matter if you have just one hour, or one whole day to get out on the bike. It’s time to do more of what you love.
FAZUA: SMALLER, LIGHTER, MORE NATURAL.
RISE is a bike that doesn’t compromise on handling and ride quality just because there’s a motor attached to it. Thanks to the lightweight Fazua Evation system, bike weight is kept low, and the 400W (peak) assistance feels smooth and natural. Unlike other systems, at 15.5mph (the legal limit in the UK), the motor decouples from the drivetrain, allowing you to pedal RISE like a regular bike.
TWO BIKES IN ONE: The Fazua system features a removable battery and motor system, allowing you to replace them with a blanking plate. So when the time comes, you can ride the Rise as the capable hardtail that it is, completely unassisted.
AS MUCH AS YOU NEED: Thanks to the removable battery, you can equip yourself with a spare battery, doubling the range of the Rise. Leave it in the car at the trail-head, or put it in your bag, and only carry as much battery as you need!
GEOMETRY LEADING DESIGN.
Geometry is the number one factor in the handling of a mountain bike frame. RISE has been designed with forward thinking geometry for the ultimate ride:
LONG, LOW & STABLE: 29” Wheels, big reach numbers, small seat tubes, steep seat angles. All the right elements for a precise handling, efficient pedalling trail machine.
SIZE BY LENGTH: RISE features a length based sizing system. Depending on how you like your fit, you can size up or down to according to reach. Thanks to the small seat tubes and long dropper posts - each size accommodates a wide range of riders.
CUSTOM OFFSET: Thanks to long front centres and a custom reduced 44mm fork offset; the increased trail of RISE creates stability without having the cumbersome handling of an overly slack bike. As a result, RISE blends high speed capability with intuitive trail manners.
EQUIPPED FOR A GOOD TIME.
The RISE electric mountain bike comes built for years of happy riding. We’ve equipped it with the excellent X-Fusion E-Slide 34 fork, X-Fusion Manic dropper post, Sector tubeless wheels, four piston TRP Slate T4 brakes and grippy Maxxis tyres. Depending on the build level you can opt for the bombproof Shimano SLX 11 speed drivetrain, or the legendary GX Eagle drivetrain from SRAM. Either way you’re getting proven quality components that perform, lap after lap.
WARNING: The maximum total weight allowed (rider, clothing, protective gear, backpack, luggage etc.) is 120kg.

GEOMETRY LEADING DESIGN.
Geometry is the number one factor in the handling of a mountain bike frame. RISE has been designed with forward thinking geometry for the ultimate ride:
SIZE BY LENGTH
RISE features a length based sizing system. Depending on how you like your fit, you can size up or down to according to reach. Thanks to the small seat tubes and long dropper posts - each size accommodates a wide range of riders.
SIZE ADVICE
Choosing the correct bike size for you depends on the type of bike, your height, your riding style, and your preference of fit.
A correct fitting bike will provide a more comfortable, more efficient and more fun ride.
If you are unsure we always recommend visiting one of our stores or contacting one of our experts from our contact us page.
First look in MBR April
"An e-bike that looks and rides like a cutting edge hardtail? Sounds intriguing..."
"In fact, the Fazua motor has a really smooth power delivery, so you rarely wheelspin"
"...less power means you’re not slamming into stuff at the same speed on the ascent"
"HIGHS: Simple modular drive system, removable battery for home charging, doesn’t look like an e-bike."

IMB Magazine - Issue 62
“Essentially this is the story of me being convinced an e-bike hardtail is a good idea. On the right terrain the Rise is an absolute blast to ride
and has proved that slapping a motor on a good hardtail does make an awesome bike.”
“Once things get exciting the Rise shows its British heritage and opens up as a capable descender. The low bottom bracket, big wheels with
proper tyres keep things tracking, and corners are railed with confidence and traction.”
“Without a doubt the best e-hardtail I have ever ridden. A beautifully executed motor system paired with some well thought out geometry
and speccing make for a brilliant riding experience.”

Singletrack World
"Where other brands can be accused of taking a current bike in the range and adapting it for a motor, the same cannot be said about Kinesis.
Everything about the Rise is new and custom-designed."
"The Kinesis Rise is obviously aimed at riders who want to fling a bike around. The geometry, tyres and 4 piston brakes are all clues to that
intention, but this is also a bike that can be taken on longer distances too."
"The natural feeling of the Fazua system is incredible and unlike any other e-Bike motor on the market. It feels more like a gentle push rather
than a full-blown burst."
