Balanced and active suspension with good mix of traction and support
Bosch Performance Line CX motor with 625Wh battery
Proportional Response concept for consistent ride across frame sizes
160mm of travel from four-bar linkage
Excellent traction under braking
Sluggish in tight corners
Technical climbs can be challenging

The new Moterra Neo comes in 165mm LT and 150mm non-LT versions, along with an alloy option.

All the bike park fun without the need for an uplift?

In last year’s big E-MOUNTAINBIKE group test with 25 bikes, the Cannondale Moterra Neo turned out to be the VW Golf in the test field. For 2021, Cannondale’s popular eMTB comes equipped with a Bosch motor, 625 Wh battery, 29” wheels and brand new suspension. Does that make it a sportier ride?
Very versatile
Easy, good-natured handling
High level of comfort
Technical climbs
Sluggish in tight corners
Untidy cable management

The Moterra Neo 2's carbon frame and 160mm of travel is versatile, nimble, and fun whether you're climbing or descending.

Cannondale Moterra Neo SE has been modified for more extreme riding; same 160mm travel frame but it has been hopped up with a 180mm RockShox Boxxer fork.
Great suspension response.
Switchbacks are its nemesis.
No reverse mode.

It can absolutely go as fast as the rider is able
