This Underdog Brand Just Teased an Awesome Long-Travel eMTB

The age of longer-travel eMTBs is now, and Teewings (who?) just teased its newest high-pivot hitter that is equipped with an Avinox motor. The Flux is their second bike to hit the market, and it makes a loud statement, albeit from a brand few have heard of.

To understand why we’re discussing a brand most people haven’t heard of. Observe how Teewing disrupted the market. They're not a typical "catalog frame" startup. They launched with the Turbo Force, a 150mm trail bike featuring the DJI Avinox motor system. By combining that 105Nm motor with a carbon chassis at a reasonable price, Teewing showed they aimed to make a quality e-bike, not just a cheap one.

The Turbo Force was/is a safe, versatile trail rig aimed at the masses. The Flux, with 180mm travel and a high-pivot suspension, targets a different crowd. The Flux signifies Teewing’s sophomore leap, showing they aim to build a deeper catalog catering to a wide range of riders. If the Turbo Force proved their concept, the Flux is their bid for a more serious place in the industry.

The Flux: Long Travel, Big Power

The Flux boasts 180mm of travel up front and up to 178mm in the rear, controlled by a high-pivot suspension design. High-pivots might be less prominent now than they were in the last couple of years, but they handle square-edged hits like a dream, and on an e-bike, that rearward axle path usually results in a bike that tracks the ground and handles the chunk much better than other suspension platforms. Plus, you can run it as a full 29er or a mullet.

To introduce the bike, Teewing teamed up with rider Josh Gleave and videographer Tom Caldwell for a raw edit that skips the marketing fluff in favor of high-speed cornering. According to Gleave, the bike’s personality is closer to that of a downhill rig than to your average e-bike.

“The high-pivot mullet setup worked really well for cornering, and the rear end just tracks the ground properly,” Gleave noted. “It feels planted, especially when things get rough... Honestly, it rides more like a downhill bike than you’d expect.”

Visually, the Flux keeps things stealthy with clean branding and performance that speaks for itself. Photographer Will Brignal described it as a "Swiss Army knife" capable of pointing up any gradient and charging back down. Even in the soggy, rocky conditions of Wales, the pre-production unit reportedly took the beating in stride.

The bike in the edit is a pre-production model; the final consumer versions will feature updated components and a finalized spec list. We’re still waiting on the nitty-gritty details, but Teewing says the full release is scheduled for mid-April 2026, which is likely when we'll learn more about whatever is coming from Avinox.
