Ducati E-Bikes

Ducati's electric bikes are built with THOK, an Italian e-MTB company founded by a former downhill world-cup racer. They are aimed squarely at people who already ride hard.

Four models here, from $5,995 to $11,990.

The range

MIG-S at $5,995 is the all-mountain bike, running a Shimano EP8 with 85 Nm, a 630 Wh battery and RockShox suspension. TK-01RR at $8,295 is the e-enduro, with 170 mm of rear travel and a mullet wheel setup.

Powerstage RR at $11,990 is the carbon-framed limited edition with Ohlins suspension, built in a run of 230. FUTA at $8,295 is the odd one out: a carbon road and gravel bike with a light 250 W rear hub, for riders who want assistance rather than a motor.

Straight answers

Who builds Ducati e-bikes?
