Scott Launches the all-new Patron eRIDE

Scott has announced the launch of their all-new Patron eRide. The bike comes with 160mm travel front and rear and is available in seven different versions. Capable of 100km of assist the Patron has the new Bosch Smart System. The bike has a new frame design created specifically for the new system and suspension, as well as the integrated shock that Scott revealed on the new Spark.

The Bosch motor offers up to 85NM and up to 340% assistance. Starting at €5999, the top of the range comes in at €10999. Available from November with the full range due in 2022. Here’s a look at the new Patron eRIDE.

The press release reads:

The team took a blank page when designing the Patron. We used the opportunity to rethink integration, design and a greatly improved riding experience. Integrated shock and cables, totally dialed geometry and a new drive unit from Bosch with a bigger battery, positioned to allow for optimum power and cooling.

Suspension

The Patron comes with a completely new and revolutionary design. The rear suspension is fully integrated into the frame and gives 160mm of travel. More than purely a design statement, the shock integration gives space to other elements such as the motor, battery and a water bottle. Easy to access, the shock comes with our TwinLoc technology to lock the suspension directly from the handlebar for optimal pedalling efficiency.

The Patron eRIDE is probably the biggest challenge we ever worked on at Scott. The elements to take into consideration and the level of details to achieve that integration raises the bar yet again. A new chapter has begun.

Drive Unit

The Bosch motor comes with 85Nm and up to 340% assistance and totally new software that amplifies this natural feeling. The motor is one of the key elements on any E-MTB, therefore we wanted to protect it from impacts. On the Patron eRIDE, the motor is vertically positioned and supported from underneath. The frame acts like a nest with the motor cradled on top for natural support.
As the Patron eRIDE motor is supported from underneath, its top part seats in the open air, therefore, like a chimney the air is free to go out. This ventilation stream is even reinforced when you ride thanks to the holes on the cover.

Battery

The Patron eRIDE comes with the latest electric technology from Bosch. Looking for more autonomy? The Patron sets a new standard with the new 750Wh battery and its 20% additional capacity. One of the biggest achievements of this bike is to fit the biggest battery on the market without impacting the tube proportions, we were also able to keep offering all sizes from S to XL. Expect to do up to 100km or 2000m of elevation on eco mode or half that if you select the Turbo mode.

The Patron eRIDE comes with a unique technology to provide optimal battery support. How? The battery is the heaviest element of the bike, therefore it’s crucial to have it properly mounted without compromising the ease of removal. The battery fits like a glove into its tube which is incorporated into the main carbon frame. This tube in tube construction ensures an easy battery slide-in when it’s time to go riding. Cable routing is nice and tidy too.

Integration

Electric mountain bikes have a crowded handlebar, between the brakes, dropper post, gears, drive unit cables, remote and suspension lockout, that’s a lot of cables. The Syncros Engineering team together with the SCOTT team worked on a clean solution to route cables directly into the headset for a clean finish. Inspired by our racing department, the Patron comes with the carbon 1 piece stem/handlebar combo, the Syncros Hixon iC SL.

A front and a rear fender are delivered with the bike, both fenders are tailor-made for the Patron for a clean and perfect adjustment. For optimal security, the rear fenders come with integrated LED lights that are directly powered by the motor battery. A cable is already routed, and a plug already mounted on the handlebar for a front light. A range of Syncros accessories are available for the Patron eRIDE such as a kickstand, a rear fender, a rear rack or an action camera mount.
