"Liv's ethos for the Embolden E+ is to 'help riders explore farther and progress with confidence.' In both price and design, the new e-bike aims to encourage new riders to get out there a bit further. But Liv also feels they have built a quality platform that will allow them to provide a thrilling experience to even higher-level riders."
"The Embolden E+ features a linkage-driven, single-pivot called FlexPoint Suspension. Liv specifically tuned the suspension system to focus on stability and traction, delivering predictable handling when the trail gets chunky. The suspension system isolates the shock, providing incredible small-bump sensitivity throughout the entire wheel path."
"The rear stays flex somewhat, providing greater traction and predictability, especially under braking. This means fewer pivots, less weight, and less (and easier) future maintenance, and an overall easier system to live with. Also helping with braking traction is a good amount of anti-rise tuned into the FlexPoint system."
Liv expands its e-bike lineup to three models with the introduction of the Embolden E+, a full-suspension electric mountain bike designed to make advanced trail riding more accessible. The Embolden E+ shares similar specifications with the higher-priced Intrigue Advanced E+, featuring 140mm rear suspension paired with a 150mm fork and comparable geometry. The key differentiator is the price reduction, making it an entry point for riders seeking to progress further. The bike utilizes Liv's FlexPoint Suspension system, a linkage-driven single-pivot design optimized for stability and traction on technical terrain. The suspension provides small-bump sensitivity, rear-stay flex for improved braking traction, and anti-rise characteristics. The aluminum ALUXX SL-grade frame construction helps maintain affordability while delivering quality performance.
