The First Carbon-Framed Powerstage RR Limited Edition Ducati e-MTB

The First Carbon-Framed Powerstage RR Limited Edition Ducati e-MTB

• 在德国萨克森林举行的 MotoGP 比赛中，e-enduro 车型首次亮相，该车型采用碳纤维车架、几何解决方案和部件，具有顶级性能
• The livery designed by Aldo Drudi, in collaboration with the Centro Stile Ducati, is inspired by the official team’s Desmosedici GP23, enhancing the unique character of this e-mtb produced in a limited edition of 230 numbered units

The e-MTB range for 2024 expands with the introduction of the Powerstage RR Limited Edition, Ducati’s most exclusive e-enduro model developed to tackle the most extreme off-road conditions. The name Powerstage, in fact, recalls a new type of special stage recently introduced in the e-enduro circuits which consists in tackling, in addition to the classic downhill stages, a technical uphill route, testing both the skills of athletes competing in the races and the performance level of the vehicle.

Powerstage RR 限量版是技术和先进组件的集中体现，其定义是不做任何妥协，以提供最高性能为目标。

The “full carbon” frame has undergone lengthy testing on the toughest routes with a single goal: to guarantee maximum performance in the enduro field. The choices on the arrangement of the carbon layers and on the types of fiber intertwining are the result of FEA (Finite Element Analysis) analysis which allows identifying the points subject to greater stress, which therefore requires greater strength. More attention to stiffness has been given to the steering area, the rear chain stay and the engine area reinforced by two ribs (T-Ribs).

在车架上还有许多其他高品质的功能细节，例如内部线缆的通道由转向止动系统（T-Stopper）保护，接头处的轴承与碳纤维直接接触，无需使用衬套，以及非对称的后链条支撑，除了迷人的设计外，还提供了更好的响应性和上坡牵引力。

Powerstage RR 采用的几何解决方案使其在最崎岖的道路上也能保持极快的速度和稳定性。垂直的 78° 座管角度可让骑手在技术性上坡路段中在鞍座上保持最佳姿势，而松弛的 64° 头管角度则有助于以最高速度克服任何障碍。

The new Shimano EP801 drive unit represents a benchmark for the category and maintains the native characteristics of the EP8: 250 Watts of nominal power and 85 Nm of torque, always delivered with the utmost fluidity and naturalness over a wider cadence range than ever before. The new system features two preconfigured assistance profiles: “long ride”, to favor autonomy on long tours and “fast ride”, to enjoy maximum performance on shorter outings. By means of the “Fine Tune” mode present on the Shimano “E-Tube Project” app, it is possible to create your own profiles thanks to the extensive possibilities for customizing the electric assistance. The removable 630Wh Shimano battery is positioned inside the “verticalized” downtube in order to lower the center of gravity, improving the balance of the bike.

Öhlins RXF38 m.2 气压前叉（行程 7.1 英寸）和采用 TTX 技术的 Öhlins m.2 弹簧避震器（行程 6.7 英寸）在高速和低速时均可完全调节回弹和压缩，确保了骑行的精确性和稳定性。

SRAM GX AXS 12 速无线后电子换档装置可随时提供即时、精确的换档。制动第一制动器配有定制的 Ducati Corse 操纵杆和 8 英寸（203 毫米）厚的 .12 英寸（3 毫米）制动盘，是目前市场上最强劲的制动器之一。

Crankbrothers Synthesis 车轮采用不同规格（前 29"，后 27.5"）的可变厚度碳纤维轮辋，有助于进一步提高转向精度，保证出色的重量/强度比。前轮采用倍耐力 Scorpion Enduro S 轮胎，后轮采用倍耐力 Scorpion EMTB-S 轮胎，以提供最大的抓地力和附着力。

此外，还配备了伸缩式座杆、Renthal 碳纤维手把和带有专用集成工具架的 Fizik 坐垫。

Giorgio Favaretto, Head of e-Bicycle Business – “Ducati’s pedal assisted bicycle project took shape with the launch of the MIG-RR, the first e-mtb produced in collaboration with Thok E-Bikes. In 2022 the range of E-Bikes has been made even more complete and performing. Today, with the new Powerstage RR, Ducati strengthens its presence in the premium-range e-mountain bike segment, aimed at even more demanding bikers.”

涂装由 Aldo Drudi 与 Centro Stile Ducati 合作设计，灵感来自 MotoGP 官方车队的 Desmosedici GP23，增强了这款限量生产 230 辆的电动摩托车的独特性，这一数字令人想起赛车的名称。

新款 Powerstage RR 限量版可在杜卡迪经销商网络订购，建议零售价为 $11,990。
