Features and technologies

Dyname 4.0

Dyname™ 4.0

Dyname™ 4.0, only available on Powerplay, is incredibly powerful and is truly a leader among e-bike motors. We designed the power curve within the software to deliver the 108Nm smoothly, allowing you as the rider to soft pedal around tight switchbacks or drop the hammer through a chunky, punchy, portion of trail.

SMOOTHWALL™ Carbon

Smoothwall carbon uses one of the world’s most sophisticated carbon processes to deliver industry leading stiffness-to-weight, ride quality, and durability.

Size Specific Tune

Size Specific Tune ensures that riders of all sizes get the right balance of small-bump compliance, mid-stroke support, and end-stroke progressiveness. Our design team does custom shock tunes based on real world field testing, and adjusts each tune for specific frame sizes.

RIDE-4™ adjustment system

The RIDE-4 adjustment system allows riders to quickly fine-tune their geometry with a single Allen key. Four configurations are possible thanks to one rotating chip.

Two-position axle

The two-position axle allows the rider to choose a short or long rear-center length that suits their personal preferences.

So "natural", I almost forgot its got a motor!

I demo'd the 2022 RM Instinct Powerplay C70 here in Las Vegas, Nevada and had a blast! My only complaint is I didn't get it for longer. ; )

I enjoyed it so much, I filmed a review of it. Have a look for more details and laughs.

If I can gather up the money, I'd love to own this e-mtb. Time to save up!

Best EMTB motor system!

This EMTB is so intuitive it makes you just feel very strong. Unlike a few other EMTB systems that constantly remind you that you are on an E-bike by continuing to power the rear wheel a couple seconds after you have stopped pedaling. The Powerplay system is the best.

Vegas Demo-October 2022

Completely addictive-powerful motor with 4 power modes made riding a familiar trail interesting. Bike fit well and after a few minutes I felt very comfortable. Handling was great-love the Fox suspension. I had looked at these in the store prior to the demo, and it lived up to every expectation

Liebliches Raubtier

Ob oben in den Alpen oder lediglich hügligem Gelände: Mehr komfortable Fahrfreude auf einem E-MTB kann ich mir nicht vorstellen, egal ob up-, downhill oder im holprigen Flussbett. WOW, BRAVO und DANKE an alle, welche dieses Produkt mitentwickelt haben. Ich liebe es!
