An elite frameset for all e-mountain bike fans
Gram dk is the Thok frameset for uncompromising riding pleasure. It is designed for those who want a super exclusive e-mountain bike that they can equip with components of their own choice. The Gram dk frameset includes the full carbon mullet frame plus Fox Factory Kashima suspension, an integrated 820 watt-hour battery and a choice of two drive units.
In addition to the proven Shimano EP801 drive, which is updated with the latest firmware, the Gram dk can also be equipped with the powerful Italian Askoll Ultra C90A motor, which is one of the most powerful motors on the market. It boasts a first-class weight-to-power ratio: weighing just 2.9 kilograms, it delivers a continuous output of 250 watts with peaks of up to 1200 watts. The 90 Newton metres of torque, which is optimized for a cadence of 60 to 80 revolutions per minute, supports up to 138 revolutions per minute. In boost mode, it reaches a torque of 110 Newton meters. The pedal assistance, which can be adjusted in five stages, ranges from 80 to 400 percent of the power applied by the cyclist.
The Askoll Ultra drive system equipped with the Sigma EOX control system allows the power to be precisely controlled from the handlebars.
Talent and performance at the highest level
The athletes Mirko Tabacchi, Eric Anselmo and Wilfred Van De Haterd will use the Thok Gram dk on the most important national and international race tracks of the 2025 season.
Each of them has a customized configuration of the bike combined with some common components that guarantee them reliability and top performance in the race. These include the FOX 38 Factory Kashima suspension fork with 180 millimetres of travel, Raicam brakes, the Shimano XT rear derailleur and the 820 watt-hour battery.
Mirko Tabacchi, the 2024 Italian E-Cross Country Champion and third-placed in the World Cup, opted for an Askoll Ultra C90Ad, which will offer him an optimal combination of power and reactivity with the shared components. His frameset is also equipped with two Damil wheels, a Fox Float X2 shock with 170 millimeters of travel and a Fox telescopic seatpost with 170 millimeters of travel.
Eric Anselmo, the former Italian downhill champion and current E-Enduro protagonist, also chose the Askoll Ultra C90A drive with 110 newton meters of torque, which he combined with a Fox steel spring damper with 170 millimeters of travel to ensure greater stability and control on the rough surfaces typical of E-Enduro. He also chose Crankbrothers wheels and pedals and Michelin tires for maximum grip and stability on the most technical sections.
Wilfred Van De Haterd, an experienced athlete in BMX, cross country, downhill and enduro disciplines, is one of the top riders in E-Enduro races in Germany and Europe. He chose the Shimano EP801 motor with 85 Newton meters of torque for a balanced power output that guarantees control and adaptability on the various surfaces of the race tracks. His Thok is also equipped with Nobl wheels and Maxxis tires.
New challenge for the brand from Alba
After years of success in the e-mountain bike industry, the Thok brand is now taking on the toughest challenges in international racing. Its goal is not only to participate, but also to bring its own vision of innovation and performance to mountain bike racing and to communicate this to athletes and the public as real added value. With the Gram-dk frameset developed for the most extreme demands, Thok is putting its technology to the test at the highest level of competition, where performance and reliability play a decisive role.
Thok CEO Stefano Migliorini explains: "Until now, we have deliberately stayed out of racing and focused on innovation, quality and the daily riding experience of our customers. But racing has changed: There are now more structured racing series with clear rules and a competitive level that showcases technology and performance. We also believe that the Gram has the perfect geometry to take on this kind of challenge. That's why we are ready to take on this challenge and bring the excellence of our products to the racing series where they are supported and represented by top athletes."
The Gram-dk frameset with drive unit (Shimano EP801 or Askoll Ultra C90A), integrated 820 watt-hour battery and Fox suspensions is available online or from authorized Thok dealers (Thok Point, Thok Service Center) at a price of 6599 euros including VAT.
