How it compares
On travel, the Rotwild R.E375 is right where the “e-enduro bike” category usually is: 170 mm up front against a median of 170 mm from 56 bikes. The rear offers 160 mm, 10 mm less than the front. Within Rotwild’s e-mountain bikes, it sits between the Rotwild R.EXC and the Rotwild R.G375 on travel. The frame is made of carbon.
The Rotwild R.E375 does well on weight: 19.6 kg for the ULTRA build is 3.9 kg below the median of comparable bikes (23.5 kg). There are 0.8 kg between the lightest and the heaviest build. The starting price of €6,990 (CORE) is roughly in line with the category median (€6,900). For the ULTRA build, Rotwild asks €8,990. Fork and shock come from FOX on every build. In total, 2 different forks are used, from the FOX 36 Float Performance to the FOX 36 Float Factory. Drive comes from Shimano EP8, paired with 360 Wh of battery capacity.
Setup notes for this spec
- Fork (FOX 36 Float Performance): 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 suspension the rebound adjuster is red. Always count clicks from fully closed (clockwise to the stop) so you can return to any setting.
- Shock (FOX Float X Performance): 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: the extra weight mainly affects tyre pressure, which is why the table below already includes a surcharge. SAG is measured just as on a bike without a motor.
Target SAG for the Rotwild R.E375
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 Rotwild specifies its own target SAG for your model, that takes priority.
170 mm fork, 60.0 mm shock stroke (all builds)
| Riding style | Fork SAG | Shock SAG |
|---|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 29 mm | 24 % = 14.4 mm on the shock shaft |
| Trail | 20 % = 34 mm | 28 % = 16.8 mm on the shock shaft |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 37 mm | 30 % = 18.0 mm on the shock shaft |
| Bike park | 20 % = 34 mm | 27 % = 16.2 mm on the shock shaft |
How to measure SAG is explained in our guide SAG setup.
Tyre pressure starting values
Basis: 2.60″ tyre width, tubeless, trail casing, including the e-MTB surcharge. If you run tubes, add about 0.2 bar (2.9 psi); with an insert, about 0.1 bar (1.5 psi) less is enough. Stock tyres: SCHWALBE Magic Mary Evo / SCHWALBE Hans Dampf Evo.
| 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
You will find a guide value for air pressure on the fork sticker (or on the shock) or in the suspension makers’ charts. Our calculator also takes riding style and rebound into account. In the end, measured SAG is what counts.
