ECONO Pantera C9 160 Electric Bike - 2025
A harmonious symphony of power, comfort, and control for mountain adventurers.

Who is this electric bike best suited for?
The ECONO Pantera C9 160 electric mountain bike is created for adrenaline-seeking mountain bikers and adventurers who want to push their limits. It is the ideal choice for those looking for a seamless blend of human and electric power to conquer the most demanding climbs and cover long distances. With an emphasis on premium FOX air suspension, exceptionally powerful brakes, and precise geometry, this bike is the perfect partner for aggressive all-mountain riding, exploring rugged trails, and technical descents where control and safety are paramount.

Powerful Bafang M510 Mid-Drive Motor
At the heart of the bike lies the exceptionally powerful Bafang M510 mid-drive motor, which, with a voltage of 36V and an impressive torque of 95 Nm, ensures effortless conquering of even the steepest inclines. On the compact Bafang DP C245.C color display, you can easily monitor your ride data and choose between five levels of assistance (ECO, TOUR, SPORT, SPORT+, BOOST), allowing you to perfectly tailor your ride to the terrain and your preferences.

Reliable ECONO Battery for Long Adventures
Power is supplied by a reliable, Slovenian-developed ECONO ELK battery, which is integrated into the frame and available in three capacities: 520Wh, 700Wh, or 800Wh. The battery can be easily removed without tools, allowing for simple charging anywhere. All batteries are interchangeable between 2025 models, ensuring greater flexibility and long, carefree tours.

Premium FOX Full Suspension
For unparalleled comfort and control, the bike features premium FOX full air suspension. Up front, the Fox Racing 36 A Float Performance fork with 160 mm of travel and a GRIP damper allows you to confidently tackle the toughest terrains. In the rear, the FOX Float DPS Factory 3-POS EVOL shock with a Kashima coating reduces friction and increases responsiveness. This sophisticated suspension system effectively absorbs all impacts, maintains optimal wheel traction, and ensures a smooth ride.

Powerful 4-Piston Brakes for Complete Control
Safety comes first. That's why the Pantera C9 160 is equipped with extremely powerful hydraulic 4-piston TRP HD-M807 SLATE EVO brakes. Combined with large and thick brake rotors (203 mm front, 180 mm rear, 2.3 mm thickness), they provide exceptional stopping power and confident, precise braking on steep descents and in unpredictable situations.

Precise Drivetrain and Dropper Seatpost
The 11-speed Shimano Cues RD-U8000 derailleur with a wide-range 11-50T cassette ensures reliable and precise shifting in all conditions. A key component for technical mountain biking is the X-Fusion Manic dropper seatpost, which allows you to adjust the saddle height on the fly with a simple push of a lever, increasing freedom of movement and control on descents.

Robust Frame and Modern Geometry
The frame, made from a lightweight and durable ALU 6061 alloy, is manufactured using an advanced hydroforming method that reduces the number of welds and increases its strength. The modern geometry, combined with the Boost 148 hub standard, ensures exceptional handling and stability. Every detail, from the precise geometry to the carefully selected components, is designed to provide an outstanding riding experience.
