Its lightweight carbon frame uses Cannondale’s Proportional Response suspension design, which tunes the kinematics of each frame size individually, ensuring balanced handling and traction for every rider. With 150mm of rear travel and a 160mm RockShox ZEB Select fork, the Moterra absorbs rough terrain with ease while maintaining precise control through technical sections.
At the heart of this bike is the Bosch Performance Line CX motor, delivering 85Nm of torque and natural-feeling assistance across a wide range of terrain. It's powered by a massive 800Wh Bosch PowerTube battery, giving you extended range for longer, harder rides. The system is seamlessly integrated into the frame and kept protected with an alloy skid plate, so you’re ready for rugged mountain use.
Shifting is smooth and built to last, thanks to a blended Shimano XT and CUES LinkGlide 11-speed drivetrain, designed specifically for the torque demands of e-bike riding. The Magura MT5 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes with 203mm rotors give you confident, controlled braking even on steep, technical trails.
The WTB ST i30 Tough rims are paired with Continental Kryptotal tyres front and rear, offering reliable grip and support for aggressive riding. A Cannondale DownLow dropper post comes fitted with generous travel matched to each frame size, allowing you to quickly adjust your riding position for steep descents and technical climbs.
Additional features include internal cable routing, a UDH (Universal Derailleur Hanger) for upgrade compatibility, and a Cannondale HeadsUp stem that integrates with the Bosch system for clean cockpit control.
Occasionally, without notice, manufacturers change product design and/or specifications.

* Mountain bikes are sized differently to road bikes. Typically, they are sized in inches as the first MTBs were produced in the USA. European brands like Lapierre and Haibike like to use centimeters for all their bikes. The measurements of their mountain bikes doesn’t match their road bikes but is like a simple conversion from the inches measurement. This is why we have included cm measurements in brackets for the e mountain bike column.
