About E-Grifn Gravel
With the E-Grifn, you go further, longer, and higher than ever before. We chose the Mahle X20 drive unit for its very natural riding feel.
A distinctive feature of this e-bike is the choice of the Mahle X20 drive unit. This is a compact and proven system that makes the impossible possible. The assistance is proportional to the force you apply to the pedals, achieved through the use of a torque sensor in the bottom bracket communicating with the software. You feel like you're always riding with a delightful breeze at your back, making every journey feel like a sporty endeavor.
An advantage of the X20 motor is that it runs virtually without additional mechanical resistance above the limit of 25 kilometers per hour. The power delivery of the system gradually fades out, ensuring a very fluid bike experience. This also contributes to the natural feeling on the bike. Moreover, you can control the motor with your smartphone via the Mahle app and customize it to your preferences. The system even adapts to your riding behavior. With Mahle X20, you have three levels of bike assistance tailored specifically for the Grifn by our product managers in collaboration with Mahle. This 'custom mapping' is a typical example of our eternal quest for perfection.
The geometry of the E-Grifn is the same as that of the Grifn RS, with a removable front derailleur clamp, space for tires up to 42 millimeters, and the UDH hanger. The battery is neatly integrated into the frame, maintaining the sporty look of the E-Grifn.
Custom mapping
With the Mahle X20, you have three levels of bike assistance, specifically tailored for the Grifn by our product managers in collaboration with Mahle. We chose to determine these levels ourselves rather than opting for the standard settings, conducting various test sessions with different types of riders until the ideal three levels were found. This custom mapping exemplifies our eternal pursuit of perfection. Switching between the different assistance levels can be done via the satellite buttons on the handlebars or via the controller on the top tube, which also visually displays the battery capacity and assistance level. The system is ANT+ compatible, allowing battery status, support level, and personal power to be available to other ANT+ compatible devices.
Mahle X20: a natural ride experience
The Mahle X20 drive unit is a compact and proven system that makes the impossible possible. The assistance is proportional to the force applied to the pedals, made possible by a torque sensor in the bottom bracket communicating with the software. Importantly, the system provides power only when you pedal, maintaining the feeling of riding a bike with a gentle breeze at your back. Additionally, the X20 motor operates virtually without additional mechanical resistance above the 25 kilometers per hour limit, ensuring a fluid riding experience. In summary, Mahle stands for three pillars: light, sport, and smart!
Mahle battery with the largest capacity (350Wh)
For the E-Grifn, Ridley has opted for the battery with the largest capacity (350Wh), with the option to expand it further with a 171 Wh range extender that replaces a water bottle holder. Based on user data from Mahle, engineers know that the 350 Wh battery is sufficient for most rides in this all-road segment. The battery can be charged to 80% in 2 hours and fully in 3.5 hours. Integrated neatly into the frame, the battery results in the appearance of a sporty bike with the added support of an e-bike.

Optimized tire clearance
For the E-Grifn, Ridley opts for a slightly wider tire clearance compared to the Grifn. With 42 millimeters, they typically provide ample capability to handle a variety of gravel obstacles. This maintains a balance between speed and agility on one hand, and comfort and stability on the other. Of course, on the road, you can easily switch wheels or tires to opt for a narrower one if needed.
Two worlds, one bike
With the Grifn family, you can hit the road as well as the off-road. You simply change wheelsets and do a gran fondo gravel on Saturday and hit the road the day after with the regular cycling club. With this family, you no longer need any other bikes.

UDH Hanger
The universal derailleur hanger (UDH) is the new standard in the cycling world. Not only is this derailleur hanger compatible with all modern shifting groups, it also protects against derailleur breakage and chain drops. In mountain biking, UDH has long been very common, and Ridley is bringing the technology to other segments as well.

Help & support
How can we help?
The frame needs a 12mm TA with a thread of 1mm (Ridley article code QRET124ZA046)
The uses the SRAM Universal Derailleur Hanger (UDH). This means you will find easily a replacement hanger wherever you are as it is a standardised hanger (Ridley article code HANUDHSRA001)
We use a BB86 press-fit bottom bracket standard on the Fenix SLiC, Fenix Disc, Kanzo Adventure, Kanzo Fast, Grifn, X-Night RS
The offset of the seatpost is 6mm. The aero seatpost is used on the Noah Fast, Noah, Falcn RS, X-Night RS frame platforms.
Yes, there is a zero offset seatpost available.
The integrated seatpost clamp (Ridley article code SPCAER4ZA010) is designed for the aero seatpost of the Grifn RS and the E-Grifn
The maximum torque to fix the seatpost clamp is 10Nm, like mentionned on the clamp
The E-Grifn uses a headset with a 1 1/4'' (IS47|33) upper bearing and 1 1/2'' (IS42|50) lower bearing.
The tire clearance of the Grifn RS and E-Grifn is 42mm, actual width, in combination with a gravel drivetrain like Shimano GRX or Sram Wide/XPLR. When using a road drivetrain, the maximum tire clearance is 38mm.
This means the actual width of the tire on the rim. This can be different from the size mentionned on the tire.
The E-Grifn is supported by a Mahle X-20 motor in the rear hub. The motor has a maximum support of 250Wh and has 3 different support levels.
The E-Grifn has an internal battery of 360 Wh. You can add an extra range extender of 171Wh using the bottlecage mounts. This range extender is available through the Mahle shops.
Yes, there is a range extender with a capacity of 171Wh available. You can fit the range extenders using the bottlecage mounts. The range extender is available through the Mahle shops.
No, there is no separate display for the Mahle system delivered with the bike. You can add extra data fields to your gps device (Garmin, Wahoo, Hammerhead, ...) to show information like battery capacity, power output, etc.
Yes, we have added a neat integrated cablerouting through the fork to the crown of the fork for your front light. We have added 2 small holes in the frame to route the cable for your rear light internally. In this way you avoid the hassle with tape or tiewraps to guide the cables!
