In fact the small size tires and the light weight of this bike mean that steep hills can be confidently overcome even without the help of the motor.

The five levels of assistance provide an automatic start to your ride, giving you the right amount of power for your needs. The MTf also features a proportional throttle allowing you finely-grained control over the power of the bike. When combined with the five Shimano mechanical gears and the powerful motor this level of control over your ride means you only pedal exactly as much as you desire.
