No matter which adventure you choose, the Ekano is your ideal companion. Once the power button is pressed, nothing stops you from having fun and enjoying adventure. Due to the wide range of design options, the Ekano will always remain your individual dream E-nduro!
The Ekano is our interpretation of a perfect Performance E-Bike.
The advantages are obvious: the quieter and lighter 85 Nm motor gives the impression of riding a classic bike through its easy and efficient pedalling. Thanks to the optimised software, the motor delivers the right power at the right time. The Shimano E-TUBE app also offers a wide range of setting options and can even be adjusted “on tour”. On the trail, the Shimano EP8 offers three support levels: Eco, Trail and Boost.
Thanks to the combination of a steep seat angle, moderately long reach and chainstays and a flat steering angle, the frame of the Ekano manages this balancing act without any problems. On the trails, these features make for an agile ride and the powerful support of the Shimano EP8 gives you a whole new riding experience.
You can choose from a wide range of components and adapt your bike perfectly to your needs. You can also create an individual look for your Ekano by choosing from the different frame colours, decals, grips and badges on the head tube.

You decide the intended purpose and decide whether you prefer the playful 27.5″, the all-round Mix version, or the smooth running 29″ wheels. Your individual Ekano offers you the performance you need in any terrain. With 170 mm travel at the front and 165 mm at the rear, there are no limits to your fun.
You prefer smooth running ? Then the Ekano 29″ is exactly the right choice for you!
With the mix variant you have the best of both worlds! The Allrounder for Up- and Downhill.
May it be playful? Ideal for those who like it a little more agile and prefer smaller wheels.
We will help you on your way to your personal dream bike. The three build kits are our recommendations from us to you, as this is exactly how we would build our own bikes. We prepared a well-thought-out predefined spec for all purposes and every budget, with which you instantly are “ready to shred”. However, we at PROPAIN always remain “custom” so you can still choose individual components to customize your dream bike in our configurator.

Good looks are not everything. Our Ekano also impresses with its inner values and smart details. With quick-change chain guard, durable bearings and internal cable routing, you’ll get more time on the bike than in your garage.
Many small details make our Ekano a real eye-catcher. The tidy cockpit not only ensures clarity and ease of use, the newly developed Ekano logo also shows the direction: always forward!
To protect the motor and down tube against stone hits, and to protect your frame against damage to the paintwork caused by the chain jumping, your Ekano comes with our motor and chain stay protection as standard. The optimised chain stay protection absorbs vibrations of the chain and protects the stay from damage. The down tube and motor are optimally protected by a cover against damage and dirt.
Internal cable routing became a standard for modern bikes. It is the smartest, safest and, above all, the cleanest way to route the cables. For the perfect look you can choose from three different head tube badges.
Whether it’s an adventurous tour or action in the bike park – your Ekano offers you the performance you need in any terrain.
Powerful & enduring!
No trail is like the other. Everyone has his own preferences when it comes to riding. With the new Shimano EP8, you get the power when you need it! No matter if it’s steep & challenging terrain or a flowing single trail, you decide how the engine supports you. Thanks to the many setting options you can adjust the engine to your needs.
E-Tube Project App
Eco, Trail or Boost modes are well known by now. With the Shimano E-Tube Project App you can now adjust the support of your engine to suit your riding style. Whether you’re on single trail or on the way to work, the quickly changed profiles ensure that your bike is always optimally adjusted.

A geometry that works well on downhill as well as on demanding and long uphill sections is key for an E-Mountain Bike. The Ekano manages this balancing act with ease by the combination of a steep seat angle, moderately long reach and chain stays and a flat head angle. These characteristics paired with the powerful support of the Shimano EP8 drive unit ensure an agile handling on the trails and an overall new riding experience.
