Cannondale Moterra Neo Carbon 1 in review – An eMTB for (almost) everyone and (nearly) every eventualities

Apr 2021 · Felix Stix

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?

Highs

  • Easy, good-natured handling

  • High level of comfort

Cannondale Moterra Neo SE review (2020) - MBR

Oct 2020 · Alan Muldoon

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.

Highs
  • Great suspension response.

Lows
  • Switchbacks are its nemesis.

  • No reverse mode.
