Designed by riders, for riders. So you can ride more, experience more and adventure more.

Freedom to Travel

How to you feel about the idea of travelling twice as far on your bike for the same effort? Or how about a weekend away without the need for a car? Long-distance commuting without breaking a sweat? All of these (and more) are becoming possible with the advent of the e-bike.

The E-Adventure 1.0 650b was born to help you achieve this. We've been listening to devoted riders like you, and thinking on how best to make the most of this whole new way of riding. Having e-assist on a bike will enable all of us to explore more of the paths-less-travelled and make it easier for people to choose bike over car more often, which can only be a great thing.

New For 2021

Always wanting to improve the Cairn team took the award winning E-Adventure back to the drawing board to see how it could be improved further.

Bigger changes come in the form of the gravel specific GRX groupset from Shimano, braking from the hoods has never been so comfortable as well as confidence inspiring.

Increasing stand over on the frames has done a huge amount for off-road control and manoeuvrability, it also has opened up our bikes to smaller riders.

E-Adventure 1.0 650b 2021

The 650b version is ready for the more rowdy rider, if you want to take the more rugged path or even the odd trail centre then this bike is just the ticket. Using the same E-Adventure frame it comes equipped with 650b Hunt Adventure Sport rims on Hunt E-Gravel hub. Tyres are supplied by Vittoria with the Mezzcal 2.25” front and 2.1” rear tyres, the mix in sizing is something that the MTB fraternity have been doing for years and makes total sense on the front for better grip, more comfort and control. It also comes equipped with a Tranz-X dropper post (80mm drop) with drop bar remote, to allow easier weight shifts and control on steeper terrain, the remote can be easily accessed from the hoods or the drops.

Award Winning Design

The E-Adventure V1 took the UK cycling press by storm winning such accolades as the Cycling Weekly Editors Choice award, but always wanting to move forward, the Cairn team took the E-Adventure back to the drawing board to see how it could be improved further. .

See Full Details

Being devoted riders ourselves and listening to our existing customers allowed us to change simple things like cable guide positioning to clean up the lines as well as re-positioning the Fazua remote for easier control. Bigger changes come in the form of the gravel specific GRX groupset from Shimano, braking from the hoods has never been so comfortable as well as confidence inspiring. t

Cairn have teamed up again with Hunt to bring a specific wheel fit for the rigours that this bike was designed for.

The Adventure Sport Disc rims are renowned for their strength and low weight and these have been paired with Hunt’s E-Gravel hub that utilises a steel axle and increased pawl contact area for a longer lasting hub when used in ebikes.

Frame Improvements

Small changes can make a big impact on a riders experience, the V1 was a solid start but things can always be improved.

See Full Details

New internal cable routing gives cleaner lines, options for dropper post as well as lighting systems connected to the Fazua system, all kept clean and tidy.

Lower stand over gives greater control, more room to manoeuvre as well as allowing smaller riders to fit on our bikes
Bridgeless seatstays give more compliance adding the comfort and control of the bike, but using our single sided plate mudguards can be mounted easily if you want.

The E-Adventure 1.0 650b 2021 comes equipped with the renowned class-beating FAZUA motor. The drive system has a two-sided torque measurement: meaning the more power you bring to the crank, the more support you get back. With an average range of 75 km (46 miles) with the battery at the medium level of support, you can reach up to 144 km (90 miles) on Breeze mode.

New for the E-Adventure 1.650b 2021is the re-positioning of the remote, allowing more for more control and ease of use whilst on the move.

Increased grip at the front and fast rolling at the back, its something that mountain bikers have been doing for years. The 650B version of the E-Adventure takes this on board.

See Full Details

Vittoria Mezcal 2.25 front and 2.1 rear tyres give you confidence inspiring grip and control in all weathers. The larger front tyre also acts to dampen the worst of the impacts giving the rider the ability to choose the tougher lines. Tubeless ready and featuring high end spec like the use of Graphene in the compounds of the tread Vittoria are really at the next level of development in tyres..

Dropper Post

Having the saddle height correct for efficient pedalling is key to get the most from your legs and the bike, but on steep techy descents the saddle can be right where you don’t want it to be.

See Full Details

The Tranz-X dropper post with 70mm of travel means the efficient and comfortable saddle height for the flats and climbs can be used and when things point down and get rough the saddle can be dropped out of the way allowing you to get your weight back and be in control. The remote lever can be activated either from the drops or the hoods too.

Gravel bikes need a gravel specific groupset to give great shifting under power as well as powerful braking to keep you in control.

See Full Details

The Shimano GRX groupset is the only gravel specific groupset on the market, the gear shifts are crisp even when crunching through gears under load on climbs. The brakes are also hugely powerful with a gravel specific lever shape to give better braking from the hoods or the drops.

The lightest and most compact drive system in the industry!

For the E-Adventure we chose to partner with the amazing team at Fazua with their equally amazing Evation drive system. Its lightweight, integrated and natural pedal feel was exactly what we were looking for to complement our bikes. At only 4.6kg for the full system its helps to create a really lightweight ebike, furthermore the system has no mechanical resistance if not in use, so if the worst happens and you run out of battery it wont feel like riding a heavy bike through treacle like some other system. The battery its self though is just over 1kg and with the Cairn keg and cage you can easily carry another battery to further your exploration.

Cairn have also used the awesome new Black Pepper update (see below for more info) to create a Cairn E-Adventure tune, we believe these 3 modes best suit the terrain that you will encounter and will get the most from your bike and ride, its easy to switch back to the standard Fazua tune with a click of a button on the app.

You can now also connect your 3^rd party computers to the Evation drive, giving you loads more info, notably dual side power output of you the rider as well as the system – who doesn’t like seeing your watts.

More info on the Fazua Evation drive - https://fazua.com/en/drive-system/evation/

Three Different Riding Modes

Choose from three levels of assistance or pedal without any help, its that simple.

Breeze
Gentle, constant and 100 watts* like a strong tailwind even at low rider power.

River
Progressive and very sporty mode, for a smooth riding experience! The strength of the support precisely follows your own power. Give a lot - and get a lot from the motor (max. 210 watts*)

Rocket
Aggressive assistance that helps you to tackle the steepest (max. 250 watts*)

*default settings

Black Pepper Update

Fazua have updated the software of the Evation drive and labelled these changes as Black Pepper, so what do these changes bring to you?

Performance

The Evation drive system’s motor control was completely overhauled from the ground up. The result is a marked improvement in efficiency, making it possible to get even more performance from the compact unit.

Cadence range

One of the most clearly noticeable performance enhancements is the delivery of power over a broad cadence range. The Evation drive system now provides more efficient assistance at a constant motor output over a cadence range of 50–120 revolutions per minute.

Riding feel

From its inception, the Evation drive system has delivered a ride characterized by gentle, natural assistance. But now, riders can enjoy an even more authentic feel: In extensive biomechanical analyses, we used complex algorithms and methods to develop riding dynamics that perfectly adapt to the rider’s individual pedalling style—to guarantee the ideal level of assistance in every riding scenario.

How To Use The Drive System

700c

Spoilt for Choice - 700c or 650b?

650B

Gravel is such a broad term, and we realise this, one riders gravel ride is another’s mountain bike ride. This is why we came to conclusion we needed two version to give the choice to the rider; we have the fast paced 700c perfect for tarmac commutes with the ability to fly up the tow paths or farm trails for an adventure. If you like your gravel to be more chunky or thee destination for your ride is a MTB trail then the 650b version has you covered with big volume tyres supplying grip as well as comfort and the dropper post gives you the room to move when things point down.

We’ve broken the two bikes down to the points of difference below to help you choose which bike suits your adventure best.

Bike Magazine & Website Expert's View

Cycling Weekly 2020 Editor's Choice

"The E-Adventure 1.0 is an incredibly likeable bike to ride. I can be pretty on the fence when it comes to e-bikes, preferring like many for my legs to be the main performance delivery system for my riding. But after the first ride I came away with the same sense of rewarded effort as if I had ridden a ‘normal’ gravel bike – but one that I managed to ride farther than my legs felt like they had ridden."

2021 Bicycling E-Bike Award

"With its impressively steady handling manners, reasonably smooth ride, and a plethora of mounts, the Cairn is best for going places—particularly on roads and paths less traveled."

Bike Perfect 4/5 Review

"I already liked Cairn’s E-Adventure bike, but having the motor mode switch right on the top tube and having more standover space are significant gains."

Cycling News Recommends 4.5/5 Review

"Cairn has taken the already somewhat niche electric gravel bike concept, sprinkled a little adventure dust on it and come up with one of the most versatile e-bikes around."

Cyclist Magazine Review

"A well considered e-gravel bike that now offers a choice of wheel configurations."

Bike Rumour 2019 Editor's Choice Award

"The most interesting e-bike I rode in 2019, was an e-gravel bike from Cairn. Propelled by a Fazua pedal-assist powertrain in the downtube, it strikes the perfect balance of giving just enough support to make the climbs a bit easier without every feeling like you are being pulled along. Comparing this back to back with a standard gravel bike on the same on & off-road loop, my heartrate was always just as high riding the Cairn, just my speed up every climb was noticeably faster. While most dropbar e-bike setups are literally a drag any time you get above their 25km/h limiter, the Fazua-powered Cairn was just as comfortable and natural feeling while pedaling at 20km/hr as it was at 40."

Singletrack Charged Full Review

'They produce products that they want to use, and the Cairn is a product of that: it’s a bike to replace a car, go to work the long way round, and throw in a bit of weekend adventure.'

BikeRadar E-Adventure 1.0 Review

"As well as changes to its geometry, other key improvements include an update to the motor, changes to cable routing and controller position, and wheel options and compatibility for a dropper to cater to more adventurous riders."

Road.cc First Look

"We caught up with the chaps from The Rider Firm at the Eurobike show. They’re the people behind Hunt bike wheels, but they were excited to show us something else they’ve been working on: a new gravel e-bike."

E-Adventure 1.0 650b 2021

KEY SPECS

The Fastest Wheelset Is The Sum Of The Fastest Parts

Award Winning Design

See Full Details

Limitless Rims

Wind tunnel developed, features disc-specific, unidirectional T24/30 rims, offering 22.5mm internal and 35mm external widths, and a 48mm u-shape aero profile.

See Full Details

PATENTED LIMITLESS TECHNOLOGY

In order to create the most aerodynamic & stable shape for the tyre, a rim bed of 22.5mm is needed. With the tyre profile this creates, the ideal shape of the rim curves out to an external width of 35mm. To overcome the weight penalty associated with this, we use a (non-structural) low density expanding polymer insert, inside a channel carved out during pre-preg.

This is bonded to the carbon during the curing process, resulting in an exceptionally strong bond. The density of carbon is 1.6g per cubic centimetre, whereas the polymer insert weighs just 0.7g per cubic centimetre, resulting in a (rotational) mass loss of just over 50g per rim. This patented technology enables us to consider the limits of material properties, and smash right past them.

The Details

• Wind tunnel tested, aerodynamically optimised for 25-28c tyres.

• Disc-specific tubeless-ready profile.

• H-lock bead-seat up-kicks for easy and secure tubeless installation.

• Unidirectional T24/30 carbon fibre with 3K weave re-enforced spoke holes.

• Matt black base finished with matt white contrasting graphics.

Enter Tom Ritchey, from his pioneering days on the very first mountain bike trails to today, Tom does not settle for the norm. Everything Ritchey does has a unique feel and finish that sets it apart and nothing gets produced without approval from the man himself. The Ritchey Butano bar with its 118mm drop, 12 degree flare and 73mm reach will look pretty standard to most, Ritchey however adds a 4 degree back sweep and a much wider taper for extra comfort and compatibility with accessories and handlebar bags. Details like these make for a great finish to our bike.

REVIEWS

Bike Magazine & Website Expert's View

Cycling Weekly 2020 Editor's Choice

2021 Bicycling E-Bike Award

"With its impressively steady handling manners, reasonably smooth ride, and a plethora of mounts, the Cairn is best for going places—particularly on roads and paths less traveled."

Bike Perfect 4/5 Review

"I already liked Cairn’s E-Adventure bike, but having the motor mode switch right on the top tube and having more standover space are significant gains."

Cycling News Recommends 4.5/5 Review

"Cairn has taken the already somewhat niche electric gravel bike concept, sprinkled a little adventure dust on it and come up with one of the most versatile e-bikes around."

Cyclist Magazine Review

"A well considered e-gravel bike that now offers a choice of wheel configurations."

'As well as changes to its geometry, other key improvements include an update to the motor, changes to cable routing and controller position, and wheel options and compatibility for a dropper to cater to more adventurous riders.'

Singletrack Charged Full Review

'They produce products that they want to use, and the Cairn is a product of that: it’s a bike to replace a car, go to work the long way round, and throw in a bit of weekend adventure.'
