The Xroad FS 6 from Moustache is a highly equipped SUV e-bike that positions itself as an all-rounder for everyday use, touring and occasional off-road passages – an attractive model for those interested in technology and mobility. This article examines the technical features, strengths and potential areas of use – with a focus on facts as they are currently available.
Highlights
- SUV e-bike with full-suspension frame (front and rear suspension)
- Bosch Performance Line CX mid-motor with up to 100 Nm torque
- 600 Wh battery (removable) and Kiox 500 display
- Extensive equipment (brake system, lights, luggage rack, etc.)
- List price: approx. 4,799 euros according to the manufacturer
Technical equipment in detail
The Xroad FS 6 has an aluminum frame in a step-through design, which makes getting on and off the bike more comfortable. The combination of SR Suntour XCR 34 suspension fork with 120 mm travel and damping with 115 mm travel should ensure comfort. The fork can be deactivated via lockout for efficient riding on asphalt roads. For the drive, the manufacturer relies on the familiar Bosch Performance Line CX mid-motor, which is specified with a maximum torque of 100 Nm.
The battery has a capacity of 600 Wh and is integrated into the frame, but can be removed for convenient charging outside the bike. The Kiox 500, which offers a modern interface to functions, is installed as the display and control unit. The actual range that can be achieved depends heavily on the terrain, support level, weight and riding style. Technically, the system promises solid values, although no specific range figures are currently explicitly stated.
Power transmission is provided by a classic chain solution with a Shimano Cues 11-speed drivetrain. This variety of gears helps to supplement the influence of the motor, especially on steep terrain or variable routes. Reliable braking performance is ensured by Magura MT Thirty disc brakes – with four brake pistons at the front and two at the rear – each on 180 mm brake discs. This makes the bike easy to control even at high speeds and when loaded.
Additional equipment & comfort
- Telescopic seat post, controllable via remote – convenient to use.
- Lighting system: front light with 80 lux, rear light available.
- Mudguards and kickstand as well as a frame lock for everyday use.
- Luggage rack, compatible with QL3 and optionally the MIK system – good for bags and load transport.
In combination, this results in an equipment density that makes the Xroad FS 6 attractive both as a robust leisure and touring bike and as a commuter-friendly everyday bike.
Conclusion
The Xroad FS 6 delivers a convincing combination of technology, versatility and comfort – ideal for users looking for a powerful e-bike for everyday use, touring and occasional excursions off the beaten track. With its 600 Wh battery, powerful Bosch CX drive and comprehensive equipment (brakes, lights, luggage rack, seat post, etc.), it covers many requirements. According to the manufacturer, the price is around 4,799 euros.
