Although we have yet to learn the actual weight of the Mako Hybrid GT, Berria claims that this model is its lightest eMTB ever produced. Additionally, it is their first electric bike propelled by the Polini E-P3+ MX, a 2,950-gram motor with a peak output of 600 W and up to 90 Nm of torque. There are 5 levels of assist available, ranging from 30 percent in touring mode to a whopping 400 percent in race mode. Polini has decades of experience in internal-combustion engine components, and more recently, has ventured into e-bike drive systems and has even participated in the E-EWS racing circuit.
