{"product_id":"polygon-siskiu-t7e","title":"Polygon Siskiu T7E Electric Mountain Bike – Brown\/Olive","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA capable full suspension electric mountain bike for longer rides and more trail laps.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Polygon Siskiu T7E is built for riders who want a helping hand on the climbs and a capable bike for the ride back down. Its Shimano EP801 motor, 630 Wh battery and full suspension aluminium frame make it a practical choice for local trails, weekend adventures and getting a few more laps in after work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith a 150 mm SR Suntour fork, SRAM Code R brakes and wide Schwalbe tyres, the T7E is equipped for riders looking to explore further and build confidence on a variety of trail terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eShimano EP801 Motor\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Shimano EP801 mid-drive motor provides up to 85 Nm of torque, giving you assistance when climbing steep trails 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. Assistance reduces as the bike approaches its configured limit; you can still ride faster under your own power or on a descent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e630 Wh Integrated Battery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA Shimano 630 Wh battery sits inside the downtube for a tidy appearance and a low, central battery position. It gives the T7E more battery capacity than the 504 Wh Siskiu T6E, which may be useful for riders planning longer rides or more climbing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHow far you can ride on a charge depends on assistance mode, terrain, rider weight, tyre pressure, temperature and how much climbing is involved. It is worth considering where and how you ride rather than relying on a single quoted range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFull Suspension for Trail Riding\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe ALX aluminium frame is paired with an SR Suntour Aion 35 Boost fork providing 150 mm of front travel. An SR Suntour Triair2 rear shock helps the rear wheel follow uneven ground through roots, rocks and rougher sections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe suspension can be adjusted to suit your weight and riding preferences. We can help set it up as a starting point when you collect the bike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eShimano 12-Speed Gearing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe T7E combines a Shimano SLX shifter and rear derailleur with a 10–51T Deore cassette. The wide-range 1 × 12-speed setup gives you useful options for steep climbs and rolling trails without a front derailleur to manage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA 34T front chainring keeps the drivetrain straightforward, while the motor provides a helping hand when the gradient starts to bite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSRAM Code R Brakes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSRAM Code R four-piston hydraulic disc brakes provide controlled stopping power when the trail points downhill. The supplied specification lists 203 mm Shimano rotors front and rear, providing plenty of braking leverage for an electric mountain bike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWide Schwalbe Trail Tyres\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSchwalbe Hans Dampf 29 × 2.6-inch tyres provide plenty of volume for grip and comfort on roots, rocks and loose trail surfaces. The supplied Super Trail casing and Addix SpeedGrip compound are suited to riders who want a capable trail tyre rather than a lightly built cross-country option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Entity XL3 wheels and Schwalbe TLE tyres are listed as tubeless-ready, with tubeless tape on the rims. Valves, sealant and final setup may still be required; ask us about the options when ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDropper Post for Descending\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 EP801 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 630 Wh integrated downtube battery\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSR Suntour Aion 35 Boost fork with 150 mm travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSR Suntour Triair2 3CR rear shock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShimano SLX\/Deore 1 × 12-speed drivetrain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide-range 10–51T cassette\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSRAM Code R four-piston hydraulic disc brakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e203 mm front and rear brake rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEntity XL3 tubeless-ready wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchwalbe Hans Dampf 29 × 2.6-inch tyres\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTranzX dropper post\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEntity Expert 780 mm handlebar\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrown\/Olive 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\u003eFlowing singletrack, roots and rocky trails\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRiders looking to fit more trail laps into their day\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeekend adventures with a mix of climbing and descending\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRiders wanting more battery capacity than the Siskiu T6E\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRiders who value wide tyres and strong hydraulic brakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTrail difficulty, permitted e-bike access and rider experience should always be considered.

The EP801 motor helps on the climbs, while the Aion fork, wide Hans Dampf tyres and Code R brakes make sense when the track gets rougher.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCompared with the T6E, the larger battery, 12-speed drivetrain and specified 150 mm fork make the T7E worth considering if you plan to spend more time on mountain bike trails. The 2.6-inch tyres also give you plenty of volume to work with when finding the right pressure for grip and comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs with any e-bike, range depends heavily on how much assistance you use and how much climbing you do. Come in and have a chat about the rides you have in mind and we can help you decide if it is the right fit.\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 Aion 35 Boost RC-PCS, 150 mm travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear shock:\u003c\/strong\u003e SR Suntour Triair2 3CR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadset:\u003c\/strong\u003e FSA No.57E, sealed bearing, ZS 44\/28.6 and ZS 56\/40\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-EP801 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-EN806, integrated downtube\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBattery capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 630 Wh\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 SLX SL-M7100-R, 12-speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear derailleur:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano SLX RD-M7100-SGS, 12-speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrank and chainring:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano SM-CRE80-12-B, 34T\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCassette:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano Deore CS-M6100, 10–51T, 12-speed, Micro Spline\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChain:\u003c\/strong\u003e KMC E12S, 12-speed\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 and calipers:\u003c\/strong\u003e SRAM Code R hydraulic disc\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFront rotor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano SM-RT64, 203 mm, Centre Lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear rotor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano RT-EM600, 203 mm, Centre Lock, with speed sensor\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 HB-MT400-B, 15 × 110 mm, Centre Lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear hub:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shimano FH-MT410-B, 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 Schwalbe Hans Dampf Evo, 29 × 2.6-inch, Super Trail casing, TLE, Addix SpeedGrip\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 Entity Expert, 780 mm width, 35 mm clamp, 25 mm rise, 9-degree backsweep\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStem:\u003c\/strong\u003e Entity 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 Entity Xtend, Cr-Mo rails\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 Brown\/Olive, with black and Space Orange 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.
