  • AI generated translation
  • AI-generated translation refers to the process of using artificial intelligence, particularly machine learning models, to automatically translate text or speech from one language to another. These systems, such as neural machine translation models, analyze large datasets of multilingual content to learn patterns and associations between languages. The generated translations are based on statistical probabilities and context learned during training.
With the Ryvon platform, Conway specifically targets the ranks of Light E-MTBs. Equipped with the small and lightweight, yet powerful Bosch SX motor and modern geometry, there are two suspension travel variants with the Ryvon ST and Ryvon LT.07.07.23 08:49 127

To satisfy various tastes without compromise, the full carbon fully Ryvon ST 10.0 or ST 4.0 with 150/150 mm, and the Ryvon LT 10.0 or 4.0 with 170/170 mm travel, are available.
During the development of the bike, Conway's focus was clearly on performance, riding dynamics, and handling. The goal was to create a piece of sports equipment that everything else should be subordinate to. A long reach, steep seat angle, slack head angle, mixed wheel setup, and a well-thought-out battery concept provide the cornerstones.

The new Bosch SX motor delivers a torque of 55 Nm and is supposed to offer significantly more power than its Light counterparts from other origins, with a maximum of 600 watts.
Conway has decided against using Bosch's new range extender and has deliberately chosen a battery exchange concept so that the riding characteristics would not suffer from additional weight.
The battery cover can be easily and single-handedly removed by sliding it off on the down tube and then placed on the top tube. Thanks to an integrated holder with two magnetic buttons, the cover is prevented from falling off.

 It was clear from the outset: If we're going to build an SX model, then we're building a performance piece. Everything has to be subordinate to that.

Conway has expanded Bosch's battery retention mechanism with a patent-pending decoupling pin, allowing the battery to be removed as quickly as possible without a lock. By pressing the pin on the so-called Pin Lock system, the battery drops into a spring, which is then decoupled with the finger, allowing the battery to be removed from the downtube. The whole process is completed in just a few seconds.
Now that the new 400 Wh battery from Bosch with 21,700 cells weighs only 2,000 g, a spare battery can be stored in a backpack during long tours, thanks not least to its relatively small packing size. Conway will offer the option to add a second battery directly at the time of purchase as an option.

By eliminating the charging port and without a port cutout on the frame, approximately 150 grams of weight could be saved on the one hand, and at the same time, frame stiffness could be increased.
The total weight of the Ryvon ST 10.0 is said to start at 17.6 kg with standard tubes; accordingly, a few hundred grams can be shaved off with a tubeless setup. The Ryvon LT 10.0, despite its gravity-oriented equipment and no cheating, is supposed to weigh significantly under 20 kg at 19.2 kg (with tubes).
The prices start at €6,499.95 for the Ryvon ST 4.0 and go up to €10,299.95 for the Ryvon LT 10.0.

Overall, there are four frame sizes (S-XL) to choose from, with crank lengths matched to the respective sizes, as well as different handlebar widths and even rise.
With a steering angle of 64 degrees for the ST and 63.5 degrees for the LT, further tuning could be done thanks to a ZS56 headset. The frame is identical across all models, only the rockers and the travel differ.
