Press Release

Giant introduces the all-new Revolt E+ Pro, a versatile drop-bar E-bike that’s designed for variable terrain including roads, gravel and dirt. Engineered with a smooth-riding ALUXX SL aluminium frame and new motor technologies that make it more powerful and able to go longer distances on a single charge, the Revolt E+ Pro is a great choice for riding city streets, bumpy backroads or long-distance routes on unpredictable terrain.

The Revolt E+ Pro is powered by Giant’s Hybrid Cycling Technology, a system that combines electric power with human power to produce a smart, natural and powerful E-bike riding experience. Its power is generated by the new SyncDrive Pro motor, which helps riders climb steep hills, hold higher speeds, and ride longer distances.

The motor delivers power based on a rider’s input and the chosen support mode. The Revolt E+ Pro features five support modes to choose from (Eco, Basic, Active, Sport, Power) and delivers a maximum support ratio of 360 percent. This means that, in Power mode, 100 percent of human torque input offers 360 percent pedal-assist power. It’s tuned to provide a quick and direct response to pedal input, delivering 80Nm of torque in less than 19 milliseconds.

The Revolt E+ Pro’s Smart Assist technology gauges pedaling input and the terrain being ridden to determine the precise amount of power needed for a smooth and natural pedaling feel. It delivers pedaling assistance at high cadences so the rider can experience full support whether they’re climbing or descending on roads, gravel or dirt.

The new RideControl EVO display and control center makes it easy to view riding data such as speed, distance, estimated range and battery capacity. This handlebar-mounted unit features aluminium casing that’s shockproof and durable, and it has a USB charging port. It can be updated wirelessly via Bluetooth, making it easy to stay current with the latest software.

The new integrated EnergyPak Smart compact battery contains 375Wh of energy. For longer adventures you have the option of adding the EnergyPak Plus Range Extender for an added 250Wh of battery power. And the EnergyPak 6A Fast Charger makes charging quick, safe and efficient, allowing you to charge the battery to 80% in about 90 minutes.

The frameset is inspired by Giant’s Revolt range of gravel bikes, designed to give riders efficiency and control along with smooth-riding comfort for long-distance adventures. It’s constructed with ALUXX SL aluminium produced in Giant’s industry-leading aluminium forging facility with proprietary production techniques. The Revolt E+ Pro also comes with a D-Fuse composite seatpost, which features a D-shaped shaft that adds compliance in the rear of the bike to enhance comfort and minimize fatigue.

The Revolt E+ Pro is equipped with the new gravel-specific Shimano GRX 11-speed drivetrain and hydraulic disc brakes, offering purpose-built shifting and braking performance on variable terrain. It also features the E-bike specific Giant eX2 WheelSystem and high-volume tubeless tires (45c) for enhanced rolling efficiency, comfort and a reduced risk of tire punctures.

The Revolt E+ Pro will be available in South Africa at the end of November.
