The Voima is named for the Finnish word for power or strength. It’s also the name of a particular Finnish icebreaking ship.
BetaVoima is Finnish for Power, and this enduro eMTB has no shortage of that.
BikerumorThe Voima is one of the few bikes to easily clean the most technical ascents on my many test loops.
BikeRadarGolden CNC porn! The Pole Voima is guaranteed to turn heads with its unique looks and construction.
E-Mountainbike MagazinePassing the very demanding EFBE TRI-TEST doesn’t happen by coincidence. It requires either an overbuilt frame or smart engineering. We rely on the latter.Pinkbike

The Pole Voima performs every bit as unique as it looks, with phenomenal climbing prowess and impressive descending stability and confidence.
The Hill Climb Champion
Descending stability
Supreme comfort
Construction quality
Unique looks
Fatiguing to ride dynamically
Not a playful bike
Unique looks won’t be for everyone

Finland's Pole Bicycles has updated it's Voima e-MTB by naming it the Voima ID, and adding new refinements and options to help you shred!

The Voima marches to the beat of a different drum, and that's not a bad thing.
Category-leading climbing performance.
Supple and stable, fast and forgiving on rough descents.
High ground clearance reduces pedal strikes when climbing and descending
Great grip and cornering confidence once you get used to it, especially when sizing down
High BB feels odd at first, especially on steep switchbacks
High weight and long chainstays make getting off the ground tricky
Awkward crux moves and technical manoeuvres can be tough
Super short seat tube makes sizing down difficult
Oct 2022 · Alex Evans
Although hugely capable at high speeds and on the climbs, the Voima turns into a bit of a handful on tighter, more technical trails
Excellent at climbing
Impressive construction techniques
Strong Bosch motor
Brilliantly absorbent suspension
Low-speed handling not up to scratch
Setup compromises required to compensate for geometry
Polarising looks

We tested the 2022 Pole Voima eMTB featuring a Bosch Performance Line CX motor and 750 Wh battery.
Unique manufacturing process
Very composed
Sensitive suspension with lots of reserves
Sensible spec
Cumbersome through tight sections
