From December 2025, the Scottish high-end brand Deviate will be launching its first e-bike on the market. After many years in the classic mountain bike sector, the company is venturing into the electric segment.

With the new Kurgan, Deviate presents a full-power e-bike that is based on the geometry of the Claymore. It is powered by a Bosch CX motor with 100 Newton meters of torque. The integrated battery offers a capacity of 800 watt hours, supplemented by a range extender with an additional 250 watt hours. It is striking that there is space for both the extender and water bottle, even in all frame sizes.

A suspension with 165 millimetres of travel in combination with a high-pivot rear triangle works at the rear, while 180 millimetres provide additional control at the front. Depending on the frame size, the chainstays grow with the bike, which has a positive effect on handling. The Kurgan is available in the sizes Medium, Large and X-Large.

As usual, Deviate offers two equipment variants: With the Elite version, the focus is on a balanced ratio between price and performance, tailored to riders in the middle segment. The Factory version relies on high-end components from Fox and Shimano and is aimed at ambitious bikers.
