New Rogue Enduro Ellsworth Bike

Blast downhill at full speed. Plow through a nasty rock garden. Tear up the climb for the next run. Rogue is a serious enduro machine featuring ACTIVE Energy Efficient Suspension. It’s engineered to be fast and brutally efficient through any and all trail conditions. TRAVEL:140/150mm WHEEL SIZE: 29 USAGE: AM /ENDURO 

Active Energy Efficient Suspension Energy Efficient Suspension is Ellsworth’s next generation fully-active rear suspension system engineered as a maximum pedal-efficient design for riders who want uncompromised ride quality both up and down the hill. 

Hex taper axle Our proprietary hex taper axle prevents the two dropouts from torsional independence. This locks the lateral movement of the left and right stays of the bike. 

Ellsworth Carbon Fiber Ellsworth Carbon Fiber bike frames are very lightweight, yet they possess the strength and stiffness necessary to survive the rigors of hard riding in varied terrain 

They employed key design features on the Rogue to simplify maintenance and to enhance the lateral and torsional stiffness of the suspension. To that end, it comes with a Hex Taper Axle, a Hex Taper Rocker Locker, and suspension pivots with dual-row angular contact sealed cartridge bearings and wide-bore precision machined pivot pins. These three elements eliminate flex and create a rear suspension that tracks perfectly through the choppiest corners and allows effi cient vertical travel, letting the suspension always perform at its best.

Internal cable routing won’t distract from the sleek lines of the Rogue, and internal sleeves ensure a rattle free ride. It’s Di2-ready with its own e-Den, a dedicated downtube storage area for the battery and junctions. This this makes initial setup and maintenance an easy task. Forget last year’s PR. It’s time to set a new benchmark.

The Active Suspension on the Truth is designed so that it is always active. It’s always reacting and responding (compressing and rebounding) to bump input from the trail. It’s always working to maintain better contact with the trail for increased traction and control. It’s always working to help you go farther and faster with less fatigue. Suspension must be fully active. In other words, it must work all of the time if it is to be of positive effect on the rider experience.

Like the rest of the Ellsworth lineup, the Truth utilizes boost hub spacing. Incorporating an extra 6mm in the rear and 10mm in the front hubs yields great rewards with increased bracing angles for the spokes. This adds significant lateral stiffness to the wheels increasing performance and durability as well. Boost hub spacing also allows clearance for bigger tires as the chainline moves outboard to 52mm, freeing up that crucial space for the driveside chainstay between the tire and chainring.

The Truth now utilizes a fully integrated headset. It’s a more intricate manufacturing process, but it introduces simplicity, style and performance to the Truth. By doing so, they’ve also reduced maintenance and eliminated possible creaking.
