{"product_id":"polygon-siskiu-t6e","title":"Polygon Siskiu T6E Electric Mountain Bike – Black\/Grey","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA full suspension electric mountain bike for exploring more trails and getting more out of every ride.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Polygon Siskiu T6E is an electric trail bike for riders who want a helping hand on the climbs and a capable bike for the ride back down. Its Shimano EP600 motor, 504 Wh battery and full suspension aluminium frame make it a practical choice for local trails, longer rides and getting a few more laps in after work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith 29-inch wheels, SRAM Code R brakes and an adjustable dropper post, the T6E is equipped for riders who want to build confidence and explore further on mixed trail terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eShimano EP600 Motor\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Shimano EP600 mid-drive motor provides up to 85 Nm of torque, giving you assistance when climbing steep trails, riding into a headwind or heading out for a longer day. Its support is delivered as you pedal, helping you keep the ride moving while still choosing how much effort to put in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplier lists this bike as the 32 km\/h assistance version. Motor assistance reduces as the bike approaches its configured assistance limit; you can still ride faster under your own power or on a descent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e504 Wh Integrated Battery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA Shimano 504 Wh battery sits inside the downtube to give the bike a tidy appearance and a low, central battery position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHow far you can ride on a charge depends on the assistance mode, terrain, rider weight, tyre pressure, temperature and how much climbing is involved. Riders planning long days with lots of steep climbing should consider those factors rather than rely on a single quoted range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFull Suspension Trail Frame\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe ALX aluminium frame uses a trail-focused suspension design to help the wheels follow uneven ground. Paired with the SR Suntour Zeron Boost fork and Edge Plus rear shock, it is designed to provide control and comfort over roots, rocks and rougher sections of trail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe can help set up the suspension for your weight and riding preferences as a starting point when you collect the bike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eStable 29-Inch Wheels\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Siskiu T6E is supplied with 29-inch wheels and 2.4-inch tyres. The larger wheels roll well over uneven ground and help maintain momentum on flowing trails, while the wider tyres provide useful volume for grip and comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePolygon lists the Entity XL3 wheels as tubeless-ready, with tubeless tape on the rims. The supplier does not identify whether the fitted tyres are tubeless-ready, so check the complete wheel and tyre setup before converting. Valves, sealant and fitting may be required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eShimano Gearing and SRAM Code R Brakes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA Shimano 1 × 11-speed drivetrain provides a straightforward range of gears for trail riding. The single front chainring keeps shifting simple, while the motor helps take the edge off longer climbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSRAM Code R hydraulic disc brakes provide controlled stopping power when the trail points downhill. Their four-piston design is suited to riders who want a substantial brake for an electric mountain bike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDropper Post for Trail Riding\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe TranzX dropper post lets you lower the saddle from the handlebar before a descent, giving you more room to move around the bike. Raise it again for climbing without stopping to adjust the saddle by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePolygon lists 150 mm of dropper travel on sizes S and M, and 170 mm on sizes L and XL. The best setup still depends on your leg length and the amount of post that can be inserted into the frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePolygon ALX aluminium full suspension trail frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShimano EP600 mid-drive motor with up to 85 Nm of torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupplier-listed assistance up to 32 km\/h\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShimano 504 Wh integrated downtube battery\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSR Suntour Zeron Boost suspension fork\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSR Suntour Edge Plus rear shock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShimano 1 × 11-speed drivetrain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSRAM Code R four-piston hydraulic disc brakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e29-inch wheels and 2.4-inch tyres\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEntity XL3 tubeless-ready wheelset\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTranzX dropper post\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePolygon Expert 780 mm handlebar\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack\/Grey finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho Is It For?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eElectric mountain biking and recreational trail riding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRiders who want assistance on longer or steeper climbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExploring local mountain bike trails and forest roads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRiders stepping up from a hardtail or non-assisted bike\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRiders who want to fit more trail laps into their day\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMixed rides with climbing, flowing singletrack and rougher sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTrail difficulty, permitted e-bike access and rider experience should always be considered. Check the rules for the trails you plan to ride before setting out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur Thoughts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Siskiu T6E is a good option for someone who wants a full suspension electric mountain bike for exploring local trails without jumping straight to a top-end build. The EP600 motor provides plenty of assistance for climbing, while the dropper post and Code R brakes are useful inclusions once the trail points downhill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 504 Wh battery is worth considering alongside how and where you ride. It can suit regular local rides, but riders planning long days with a lot of climbing or regular high-assistance use may prefer a bike with a larger battery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 29-inch wheels and trail geometry make sense for riders who enjoy a mix of climbing and descending. As always, a comfortable fit and a good suspension setup matter more than any single number on the specification sheet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrame and Suspension\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polygon ALX aluminium trail frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFork:\u003c\/strong\u003e SR Suntour Zeron Boost\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear shock:\u003c\/strong\u003e SR Suntour Edge Plus\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadset:\u003c\/strong\u003e FSA, sealed bearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMotor and Battery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano DU-EP600 mid-drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum torque:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 85 Nm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAssistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supplier-listed 32 km\/h configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBattery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano BT-EN805-L, integrated downtube\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBattery capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 504 Wh, 36 V, 14 Ah\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpeed sensor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano EW-SS301\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDrivetrain\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShifter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano trigger, 11-speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear derailleur:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano, 11-speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrank:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano SM-CRE70-B, 34T\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCassette:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano, 11-speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChain:\u003c\/strong\u003e KMC, 11-speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePedals:\u003c\/strong\u003e Alloy flat pedals with replaceable pins, as listed by supplier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBrakes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrake levers:\u003c\/strong\u003e SRAM Code R\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrake calipers:\u003c\/strong\u003e SRAM Code R hydraulic disc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWheels and Tyres\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheelset:\u003c\/strong\u003e Entity XL3, tubeless-ready\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRims:\u003c\/strong\u003e Double-wall alloy, 32-hole, supplied with tubeless tape\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFront hub:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano, 15 × 110 mm, Centre Lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear hub:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano, 12 × 148 mm, Centre Lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpokes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless steel, 14-gauge, brass nipples\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTyres:\u003c\/strong\u003e Performance tyre, 29 × 2.4-inch, as listed by supplier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCockpit and Contact Points\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandlebar:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polygon Expert, 780 mm width, 35 mm clamp, 30 mm rise, 9-degree backsweep\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStem:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polygon Expert, 35 mm length, 35 mm clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeatpost:\u003c\/strong\u003e TranzX JD-YSP23JL dropper, 30.9 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDropper travel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 150 mm on S and M \/ 170 mm on L and XL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSaddle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Linc Xtent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAdditional Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 29-inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eListed sizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e S, M, L and XL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\/Grey, with Cool Grey and Black decals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSelect your preferred size to check current availability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSize Guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe right size depends on your height, body proportions, experience and preferred handling.
