How it compares

150 mm at the fork almost exactly matches the 150 mm median of the 101 bikes in the “e-MTB for trail and touring” category in our database. Travel is the same front and rear at 150 mm each. Within Husqvarna’s e-mountain bikes, it sits between the Husqvarna Light Cross and the Husqvarna Hard Cross on travel. The frame is available in aluminium or carbon.

At a minimum of 24.1 kg (MC6 build), the Husqvarna Mountain Cross is heavier than its category median of 23.4 kg – 0.7 kg more. Within the range, weight varies by 0.6 kg. For suspension, Husqvarna combines components from FOX, RockShox and SR Suntour. In total, 5 different forks are used, from the SR Suntour Zeron35 Boost AIR LOR to the FOX Float 36 Factory. It is powered by Shimano EP6 (DU-EP600) or Shimano EP8 (DU-EP801) with a 630–720 Wh battery.

Setup notes for this spec

Fork (RockShox 35 Gold RL): 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 FOX and RockShox suspension the rebound adjuster is red. Always count clicks from fully closed (clockwise to the stop) so you can return to any setting.
Shock (SR Suntour EDGE PLUS 2CR): get on the bike in your normal riding position, step off carefully and read the O-ring. Always cycle the shock a few times after pumping.
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 Husqvarna Mountain Cross

SAG is the share of travel your weight already uses in the riding position. The table gives it straight in millimetres – read the O-ring on the stanchion and on the shock shaft and adjust the air pressure until it matches. Any figures from Husqvarna take priority.

150 mm fork, 62.5 mm shock stroke (all builds)

Riding style	Fork SAG	Shock SAG
XC / touring	17 % = 26 mm	24 % = 15.0 mm on the shock shaft
Trail	20 % = 30 mm	28 % = 17.5 mm on the shock shaft
Enduro / rough	22 % = 33 mm	30 % = 18.8 mm on the shock shaft
Bike park	20 % = 30 mm	27 % = 16.9 mm on the shock shaft

How to measure SAG is explained in our guide SAG setup.

Tyre pressure starting values

For 2.40″ wide tyres, tubeless with a trail casing, including the e-MTB surcharge. With an inner tube about 0.2 bar (2.9 psi) more, with an insert about 0.1 bar (1.5 psi) less.

Air pressure in the fork and shock

You will find a suitable starting pressure on the sticker on the fork stanchion (or on the shock) or in the suspension manufacturers’ setup charts. Our calculator gives you a starting value including rebound for your weight and riding style. What matters afterwards is the measured SAG from the table above.

Note: all values without guarantee. Specification can vary by model year, frame size and market – if in doubt, the type plate, the manual and Husqvarna’s information apply. Never exceed maximum pressures.
