Behold the Yeti LTe, the Californian's latest electric mountain bike, a no joke, enduro race machine built to take on the planet's wildest features and trails. The LTe is the e-mtb to choose for anyone hitting the black runs at the local bike park or looking to enter an e-enduro race event.
Yeti's engineering wizards have conjured the LTe to exceed the performance of not only rival e-mtb's but standard enduro mtb's too. The LTe frame is equipped with a special linkage, a Yeti signature, in the form of the Sixfinity 6-bar system. This provides unfathomable traction, agility, and ride response, leading to early reviews coming back dripping in praise from testers.
The LTe comes in 3 spec levels, C2 Factory, T3, and T4; all build kits use the same advanced Turq series carbon frame.

Bosch CX / CX-Race drive system -
Bosch are at the top of the pile when it comes to e-MTB motor units. C2 and T3 builds are fitted with the Bosch CX, the T4 comes with the CX-R unit. Both CX and CX-R produce the same power, with the CX-R being slightly lighter and tuned for race conditions. Both push out an incredible 100nm torque (in Boost) with 750watts of power. All juiced with a 800wh battery.
Yeti Sixfinity suspension -
Yeti developed Sixfinity specially for the needs of electric mountain bikes. This advanced 6-bar linkage allows Yeti's engineers to super-fine-,tune the LTe frame to work with the Bosch drive system and achieve world Cup winning levels of acceleration, deceleration, and traction. With the LTe, you can adjust the Sixfinity progression rate to fine-tune to your riding style and shock choice with the flip of a chip. Choose from 3 modes - 1. racy and consistent, 2. balanced, or 3. plush then poppy with more bottom-out resistance.
Yeti Turq series frame -
The LTe frame is manufactured to the highest possible standards we know and love from Yeti, with incredible attention to detail and paint finish, all backed by one of the best lifetime warranties in the cycling industry. Both T and C series LTe bikes are constructed from Yeti's top spec Turq carbon. The LTe carbon fiber frame is further enhanced with Vectran plies, a high-performance multifilament like Kevlar offers exceptional impact resistance and contributes to overall strength. Key areas have added protection, including chainstays, seatstays, top-tube, and downtube.
