Video Description

MAHLE's debut into the mid-drive market is here, and they didn't hold back! The M40 is challenging the biggest guns by packing massive power into a lightweight 2.5kg unit. But how does it actually perform on genuine terrain? Steve Jones took the MAHLE M40 to Curuvacas in Spain, to attempt a climb up Hell's Peak. This is the ultimate test of its ultra-precise speed sensor that promises flawless low-cadence control for technical rock climbing. We break down the specs, the digital ecosystem (Trio remote, 800Wh battery option), and put MAHLE's claim of having the lightest full-power eMTB motor to the brutal, rocky test!
