Whistle AXR C8.6: Full Carbon Enduro eMTB with 150 Nm DJI Avinox Motor, Shimano XT Di2 and RockShox ZEB

The Whistle AXR C8.6 (available in the Black / Red, Black / Grey, and Anthracite / Titanium colorways) brings a benchmark technical specification to the electric Enduro segment: a 22.8 kg monocoque Toray T700 carbon fiber frame, the DJI Avinox M2S drive unit delivering 150 Nm of torque and 1,300 W peak power with an integrated 800 Wh battery, RockShox ZEB and Super Deluxe suspension (170 mm front and 160 mm rear travel), and the wireless 12 speed Shimano XT Di2 M8250 electronic drivetrain. At Novo Cicli, we prepare every bicycle in our workshop by tuning suspension pressures, tire setup, and motor parameters to your exact weight and riding style.

DJI Avinox M2S Drive System (150 Nm / 1,300 W) and 800 Wh Battery with 12A Fast Charging

The propulsion system developed by DJI redefines the balance between low weight, compact dimensions, and climbing power on extreme technical trails:

• 2.6 kg DJI Avinox M2S Drive Unit: Weighing just 2.6 kg, the mid drive motor delivers up to 150 Nm of maximum torque and 1,300 W of peak power (250 W nominal). High frequency torque and cadence sensors regulate power delivery across 5 assistance modes (Auto, Eco, Trail, Turbo, Boost) to maintain rear wheel traction over wet roots and steep rock slabs.
  
  
• Integrated Avinox DP100 OLED Touch Display and App Tuning: Seamlessly integrated into the top tube, the full color OLED touchscreen lets you monitor ride metrics and customize the power delivery of each assistance mode via the smartphone app.
  
  
• Ultralight 800 Wh Battery and 2.5 Hour Fast Charging: The downtube integrated battery weighs only 3.74 kg to keep the center of gravity low on descents and supports the high current 12 A fast charger, reaching a full charge in approximately 2.5 hours.

29 Inch Enduro Chassis: 170 mm RockShox ZEB, Toray T700 Frame and Michelin eWild Tires

The race oriented geometry of the 29 inch Full Carbon frame is engineered to deliver steering precision in bike parks and across rough alpine descents:

• RockShox ZEB RC eMTB Fork (170 mm) and Super Deluxe Shock (160 mm): Up front, the beefy 38 mm chassis of the ZEB fork with a DebonAir+ air spring ensures line holding accuracy under heavy braking; at the rear, the RockShox Super Deluxe DebonAir Progressive shock (230x65 mm) controls 160 mm of rear wheel travel built around a universal UDH dropout.
  
  
• 30 mm Asymmetric Wheelset and Michelin eWild Competition Line Tires: The Radiale X30 eDesign asymmetric rims featuring a 30 mm internal width laced to Boost hubs (15x110 mm front and 12x148 mm rear) come shod with 29x2.60 inch Michelin eWild Front and Rear Competition Line Tubeless Ready tires.
  
  
• New Shimano XT Di2 M8250 Electronic Drivetrain and 4 Piston Brakes: Crisp 12 speed electronic shifting is handled by the new Shimano XT RD M8250 SGS Di2 rear derailleur paired with the wireless SW M6250 Di2 shifter, a 34T MegaTooth chainring, and a wide 10/51T MicroSpline cassette. Stopping power is provided by 4 piston Shimano XT BR M8220 hydraulic disc brakes with 203 mm front and rear rotors.

The Novo Cicli Workshop: Suspension SAG Tuning, Tubeless Setup and DJI Configuration

An Enduro eMTB with 170 mm of travel and 150 Nm of torque requires precise mechanical setup before hitting the trails. At Novo Cicli, we prepare your Whistle AXR C8.6 directly on our workbench prior to delivery:

• Custom RockShox ZEB and Super Deluxe SAG and Rebound Setup: We calibrate air spring pressures (SAG), rebound damping, and volume progression on both the fork and rear shock according to your fully geared riding weight.
  
  
• Cockpit Fit, Tubeless Conversion and Electronic Diagnostics: Upon request, we trim the 780 mm handlebar (35 mm clamp diameter) or adapt stem length (35 mm or 50 mm stock depending on frame size), perform a complete tubeless conversion on the 2.60 inch Michelin tires, and update the firmware on both the DJI Avinox system and Shimano XT Di2 drivetrain for pickup in Besnate (Varese) or insured international shipping.
