Polygon have been hitting it out of the park with their 2024 mountain bike range, and the Siskiu T6E trail e-bike is no exception. At $5499 you get a full-powered trail eMTB with a Shimano EP6 system, adjustable geometry, capable suspension, proper SRAM 4 piston brakes and a wide range 11-51t Shimano drivetrain.

Excellent review! I was contemplating changing the chip as well for the same exact reasons you mentioned with the handling, so I think I will test that out for sure the next nice day I have in NY. What an awesome affordable beast of an E-bike...👍All the best, Jay

Great review as always 👏 Im torn between this and the cube Hybrid 140 hpc pro 625, with bosh motor. Intermediate rider mostly blue trails bit of cross country. Your opinion would be greatly appreciated?👍

@Australianmountainbike 6 месяцев назад

If it's the older model which isn't Smart System - get the Polygon. The handling is better and the ergonomics of the motor controls is better.

@alanroser6031 6 месяцев назад

@@Australianmountainbike thanks for the fast reply 👍 I think I will pull the trigger on the polygon siskiu T7E still cheaper than the cube with decent battery. Just have to wait till bikes online get size small back in stock, as I'm in that S/M range🤔. Thanks again much appreciated 🙏 👍

Hi there I’m new to this. Coming of dirt bikes, but I’m 6”6’ and 120kg, how will the xl handle me? Would the battery flatten fairly quick being a big guy? Cheers loved the review

@Australianmountainbike 5 месяцев назад

The battery does use Wh (energy) to move mass so it will be impacted. Check in with BikesOnline about the total system weight, you may be right around the limit once cycling gear is included.

@richarde1355 Месяц назад

It appears to be a great value. Did you weigh the bike?

@stefanhansen5882 3 месяца назад

Great review! 2½ hours of riding, you said. How many kilometers in this time?

@Australianmountainbike 3 месяца назад

about 50km and 1200m of climbing

This or a YT decoy core 1?

@Australianmountainbike 5 месяцев назад

They're not really comparable as the Decoy is a bigger and burlier bike. If you need a big hit self shuttle bike, go for the YT. If you're after a trail eMTB then the Polygon is great.

@Kay0Bot 3 месяца назад

3400$ usd is great for that bike

@Australianmountainbike 3 месяца назад

We bet it is epic value in any currency!

Boat anchor for a fork on a $5000+ USD bike. No bueno

@Australianmountainbike 5 месяцев назад

That's in AUD - you'll find that a burly fork is your friend on an eMTB.

@FluffyBunnySlippers 8 месяцев назад

That’s a ridiculous price. Never

@Australianmountainbike 8 месяцев назад

It's a very competitive price for a full-suspension eMTB with a Shimano system and a quality build in Australia. It's a lot of money for a mountain bike - but well within the realms of a trail e-bike.

@dvda4 5 месяцев назад

These are now $4,500 at bikesonline. Yes, it is a lot of money for a bike. However, it's not a lot for a serious e-mtb. If you just want something to ride around town there are much cheaper options available.
