LEDE Quietkat Ranger XR Grey 148 1220X

QuietKat has launched its Ranger XR, an e-bike crafted for backcountry explorers, adventurers and hunters seeking to venture deeper into the wild. Engineered to tackle the most challenging terrains and deliver exceptional versatility, the Ranger XR redefines off-grid exploration with a robust design, extended range and industry-leading capabilities.

Frame

Built on a durable 17-inch frame, the Ranger XR is powered by a 750W hub-drive motor producing 85Nm of torque, enabling adventurers to effortlessly conquer steep inclines, muddy trails, and rugged terrain. The bike features an impressive dual-battery system, combining a 12.8Ah on-board battery with an additional 12.8Ah extra battery, offering a total capacity of over 25Ah. This range—up to 38 miles on a single battery—ensures explorers can travel farther into remote areas without concern for power, making it a great companion for extended backcountry journeys.

Suspension

The Ranger XR is equipped with heavy-duty features to meet the demands of serious outdoor enthusiasts. Its integrated pannier rack offers 100 pounds of hauling capacity, perfect for carrying gear, supplies, or equipment. The bike’s 26" x 4.5" wide rugged tires and front suspension fork provide a smooth, comfortable ride over challenging landscapes, while the SRAM seven-speed gearing and Tektro 2-Piston Hydraulic Disc brakes ensure precise control and reliable stopping power, even on steep descents with heavy loads.

Luggage Rack

Adventurers can take advantage of the Ranger XR’s customizable options, including trailers, storage solutions, additional lighting and gear holders, all designed to adapt to specific needs in the field. The bike’s LCD display and five modes of pedal assist, throttle and walk-assist mode offer versatility for any outdoor scenario, whether navigating dense forests, scaling rugged mountains, or exploring uncharted trails.

“We designed the Ranger XR to be the ultimate tool for backcountry explorers who crave flexibility, reliability, and range in the outdoors,” said Peter Vallance, VP at QuietKat. “With its powerful motor, extended battery life, and full range of accessories, this e-bike empowers adventurers to explore like never before and conquer any challenge ahead.”

Weighing just 65 pounds and boasting a load capacity of 325 pounds, the Ranger XR combines portability with rugged durability. For more information, visit QuietKat.com.
