Introducing the all-new Liteville 301 CE Mk1

With the 301 CE MK1, Liteville embarks on a new journey: whilst this is the first-ever bike to roll out of the small German factory with an electric motor, it’s also their first bike with a carbon frame.

The small German bike manufacturer, Liteville, is mainly known for its super high-quality aluminium mountain bikes. However, the Liteville 301 CE MK1 wants to be an uncompromising eMTB. And that’s exactly why the engineers at Liteville recycled the basic design of the classic 301 to develop an entirely new bike platform around the Shimano STEPS E8000 engine. Both the motor and the internal 610 Wh battery are deeply integrated into the new frame, which is Litevilles very first carbon frame.
