Summary
The Scott Lumen is a lightweight trail e-bike that excels with its natural ride feel and impressive integration. Its TQ HPR50 motor delivers quiet, seamless power, making climbing efficient and fun, while the 130mm suspension offers a poppy and adaptable performance on flowing trails. However, some component choices, like tires and brakes, can limit its descending capability on rougher terrain.

Busy cockpit with multiple controls
It feels so much like a regular bike and I dare say that many would have a hard time, if not impossible, to tell that it’s an e-bike when riding it without the assistance.
BikerumorThe SCOTT Lumen eRIDE 900 SL is the Swiss army knife amongst bikes.
E-Mountainbike MagazineAs it turns out, the Lumen isn’t your average e-MTB. Indeed this is a seriously rapid trail bike that is defined by its sporty handling and terrific agility.
Flow Mountain BikeScott’s new Lumen is a game changer; an e-bike light enough to pass for a regular trail bike, with a motor so subtle it can power you up the climbs and get out of the way for the descents.
MBRThe Lumen is a real dark horse and one of the best e-MTBs on the market.

The Scott Lumen eRIDE 920 is a light and snappy ride. This XC/trail setup handles with confidence, yet passersby might not even clock it as a full-suspension or electric bike. Lightweight, nimble, and agile: these are not words we usually associate with e-bikes, where a motor and battery often add bulk. You might think that
Terrific frame build. Great trail-ready geometry with a clean look thanks to the integrated shock and cable routing. The compact motor keeps it stealthy so you can barely tell it’s electric.
Precise and quiet power. The TQ HPR50 delivers intentionally modest power that enhances, rather than overtakes, your pedaling. It’s smooth, natural, and impressively quiet.
Light build. At roughly 41 lbs, it’s one of the lighter eMTBs out there, keeping handling natural and lively. Great for flowy trails and moderate terrain, while still capable on technical sections and climbs.
Thoughtful suspension. The 130/140mm setup performs well within XC and trail limits, and Scott’s TwinLoc system lets you fine-tune suspension for traction, efficiency, or full plushness on the fly.
Range extender compatibility. Add the 160Wh extender for roughly 44% more range.
Strong braking setup. The Shimano MT520 four-piston brakes deliver confident, controlled stopping power; an upgrade over the two-piston systems often found on XC builds.
Heavy wheels and slow hub engagement. The stock wheels add weight and dull responsiveness; upgrading could make the bike feel even more agile.
Maintenance tradeoffs. The integrated shock and internal cable routing look great but make service and part swaps more involved.

I get the impression that Scott has labelled the Lumen eRide 900 as a cross-country/light trail bike to aid its pursuit of creating one of the lightest e-MTBs around and it’s worked. However, thanks to some solid geometry choices and responsive trail manners, the Lumen is a real dark horse and one of the best e-MTBs on the market. However, some componentry choices hold the bike back.

The Scott Lumen eRIDE 900 SL is a pretty awesome bike but it was designed with a very specific audience. Check out our review to learn more.

With its compact TQ motor and a striking full carbon frame, the Scott Lumen eRIDE is one of the stealthiest & lightest e-MTBs we've tested.

Sporty handling
Poppy, smooth & adaptable suspension
Impressive climbing abilities
Quiet TQ motor
Fits two bottle cages
Budget spec for the price
Flimsy tyre casings

SCOTT enter our huge 2023 eMTB group test with the Lumen eRIDE 900 SL Light-eMTB, which features a TQ HPR 50 motor and 130 mm travel, tipping the scales at just 16 kg!
Highest level of integration in the entire test field
Good fun on flowing trails
Efficient climber
Non-removable battery
Spec limits the trail potential
Huge price for a tiny range of applications

The SCOTT Lumen eRide 900 SL is a true master of integration and the only e-Downcountry bike in our 2023 Light-eMTB group test.
Impressive level of integration
Efficient climber
High fun factor on flowing trails
Eye-watering price and narrow range of applications
Spec prevents it from reaching its true trail potential

Scott hits a winning formula with the Lumen, but it certainly comes at a price
Lightweight
Capable on most terrain
TQ system is really promising
Price
Unsure of the need for TwinLoc
Could do with a slightly longer reach
Grips aren’t particularly comfortable
