Fantic Rampage: suspension setup & specs
The Fantic Rampage is an e-MTB for trail and touring with 120–140 mm of fork travel and 120–140 mm at the rear. It is powered by TQ HPR50 50Nm. Below you will find all 4 current builds with fork, shock and shock size, plus SAG values in millimetres and a tyre pressure table.

| 1.4 Factory | Suntour Axon34 (140 mm) | Suntour Edge+ | 190x45 | 140 mm | TQ HPR50 50Nm 360 Wh | – | €9,490 | Setup → |
How it compares
At 120–140 mm, fork travel is 10 mm shorter than the median of the “e-MTB for trail and touring” category (150 mm, 101 bikes). Of Fantic’s e-mountain bikes, the Fantic Rampage offers the least travel up front. Fantic builds the frame from carbon.
The starting price of €5,490 (1.4 Sport) is roughly in line with the category median (€5,500). For the 1.4 Factory build, Fantic asks €9,490. For suspension, Fantic combines components from RockShox and SR Suntour. The fork line-up ranges from the Suntour Raidon34 to the RockShox SID (Remote). Drive comes from TQ HPR50 50Nm, paired with 360 Wh of battery capacity.
Setup notes for this spec
- Fork (RockShox SID (Remote)): air goes in through the valve on top of the left leg. After every change, compress the fork firmly a few times before measuring SAG.
- Rebound: on RockShox suspension the rebound adjuster is red. Always count clicks from fully closed (clockwise to the stop) so you can return to any setting.
- Air shock (Suntour Edge+): measure SAG in your riding position, ideally with a helper holding the bike. Cycle the shock a few times after every pressure change.
- e-MTB: because of the extra weight, start with slightly more tyre pressure – the surcharge is already built into the table below.
Target SAG for the Fantic Rampage
The table converts the recommended SAG percentages into millimetres, so you can check them with the O-ring directly on the stanchion and on the shock shaft. Adjust the air pressure until the value is right. If Fantic specifies its own target SAG for your model, that takes priority.
140 mm fork, 45.0 mm shock stroke (1.4 Sport, 1.4 Race, 1.4 Factory)
| Riding style | Fork SAG | Shock SAG |
|---|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 24 mm | 24 % = 10.8 mm on the shock shaft |
| Trail | 20 % = 28 mm | 28 % = 12.6 mm on the shock shaft |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 31 mm | 30 % = 13.5 mm on the shock shaft |
| Bike park | 20 % = 28 mm | 27 % = 12.2 mm on the shock shaft |
120 mm fork, 37.5 mm shock stroke (1.2 Race)
| Riding style | Fork SAG | Shock SAG |
|---|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 20 mm | 24 % = 9.0 mm on the shock shaft |
| Trail | 20 % = 24 mm | 28 % = 10.5 mm on the shock shaft |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 26 mm | 30 % = 11.2 mm on the shock shaft |
| Bike park | 20 % = 24 mm | 27 % = 10.1 mm on the shock shaft |
How to measure SAG is explained in our guide SAG setup.
Tyre pressure starting values
The values apply to 2.60″ wide tubeless tyres with a trail casing, including the e-MTB surcharge. With an inner tube add about 0.2 bar (2.9 psi), with an insert take off about 0.1 bar (1.5 psi).
| Ready-to-ride weight | Front | Rear |
|---|---|---|
| 60 kg | 1.40 bar (20 psi) | 1.60 bar (23 psi) |
| 70 kg | 1.52 bar (22 psi) | 1.72 bar (25 psi) |
| 80 kg | 1.64 bar (24 psi) | 1.84 bar (27 psi) |
| 90 kg | 1.76 bar (26 psi) | 1.96 bar (28 psi) |
| 100 kg | 1.88 bar (27 psi) | 2.08 bar (30 psi) |
| 110 kg | 2.00 bar (29 psi) | 2.20 bar (32 psi) |
| 120 kg | 2.12 bar (31 psi) | 2.32 bar (34 psi) |
Air pressure in the fork and shock
The sticker on the fork (or on the shock) and the manufacturers’ setup charts give you a first pressure. Our calculator is more precise and suggests rebound too – always check the result via SAG.
