The Intense Tazer is a modern Ebike that features some progressive, trail bike and enduro style geometry.

The beast has arrived! At 9am one morning early in December a courier truck rolled up to V-Sports’ (Intense’s Aussie base) headquarters to deliver the very first Tazer to arrive in the country. Having been offered the exclusive first review we arrived at V-Sport at 2pm that very same day to collect the bike and by 4pm we were out on the trails clicking it straight into Boost mode!

Usually, making the acquaintance of a Tazer is a very unpleasant experience – thankfully here that’s not the case. The Intense Tazer will electrify you, but in a very positive way.NEW: Before we get into the review, we would like to tell you about our latest print edition. The E-MOUNTAINBIKE Print Edition 2022 is our […]
Excellent suspension
Balanced and predictable handling
Confidence inspiring
Rattling battery on our test bike
Cumbersome in tight sections

The Intense Tazer e-bike joins a select group bikes at the top of the tree. It rides and handles as well as the best e-bikes on the market.
Excellent Shimano drivetrain mated to head turning carbon frame.
Generous sizing.
Supportive suspension.
Engaging handling.
Shimano motor cannot compete with the power, torque and range of the Specialized-tuned Brose system.
Rear collet axle system is a pain.
XT rear brake lever had bite point inconsistencies.
Dual collar lock-on grips eat into bar space.

Additionally, this wasn’t helped by the 45mm stem, which on a bike like this felt rather long — dropping it to a 35mm should aid cornering feel and ease the ability to weight the front wheel on loose terrain, boosting cornering confidence.. .

Intense's new Tazer e-MTB is an impressive debut into battery-assisted bikes for the Californian brand, mixing a full carbon frame with aggressive geometry, mismatched wheel sizes and a Shimano drive unit. It's hugely capable both uphill and down but not without a few quirks.

It’s good to see the Tazer name back in the Intense lineup! Though other than two wheels, this new version has practically nothing in common with its 4X racing predecessor. The Tazer is the very first eMTB from Intense, though its level of refinement would suggest otherwise. If you’ve followed the Instagram account of Intense …
Absolutely striking bike.
Initial ride impressions are very positive.
Ok, it's very expensive.
