With up to 120km of range and mounts for gear, the new mechanical SRAM Rival build keeps it simple with solid wheels and cockpit, too.

Verdict: A versatile e-gravel bike that will tackle anything you ride it on

The new Cairn E-Adventure 1.0 Rambler Edition is a Fazua-powered drop bar bike that proves you don't need an eMTB to go off-road.
Oct 2021 · Guy Kesteven
Cairn has rebooted its Fazua-powered E-Adventure bike to make it more user-friendly and added a carbon-wheel-fatter-tire option. Guy Kesteven has been finding out how all that adds up.
Boisterously playful character
650b tires add to the fun
Precise and balanced handling
Carbon wheel upgrade boosts responsiveness
Great price for the package
Fazua motor is smooth, silent but usefully powerful
Tons of tire space
Discreet top tube motor switch/indicator
Neater cable routing including dropper post
Optional ‘motor out’ storage
Needs low tire pressures for comfort
Motor rattle when freewheeling
Limited on bike motor/battery info
Less range and power than a full-fat e-bike
Mixed transmission is noisy when dirty
Aug 2020 · Nick Odantzis
Cairn has taken the already somewhat niche electric gravel bike concept, sprinkled a little adventure dust on it and come up with one of the most versatile e-bikes around
Good for longer rides thanks to additional batteries
Removable battery and drive pack allow you to ride with less weight
Comfortable cockpit
Lots of mounts for adding bags
Good tyre clearance
Good value - less than £3k isn't a huge amount considering the spec
Relatively heavy with or without battery
Quite a firm ride
Looks might not be to everyone's taste
Battery charging has to be done off the bike
Not many bottle cage mounts
Apr 2020 · James Bracey
Cairn's electric gravel bike extends what's possible on your off-road excursions

Fazua motor system provides just enough assistance
Ability to ride without motor
