Incorporates a high pivot point suspension design, enhancing rear wheel traction and ground contact during rear wheel bumps. This provides a more stable body posture during downhill rides on bumpy surfaces. FREY Dopamine 2.0 has a flat anti-squat curve. That is to say, the bike rides squish-free when hammering out of the pedals on flat roads or uphill, pedaling force almost entirely converted into forward motion of the wheels.

FREY is one of the biggest players regarding high-power electric mountain bikes. Now, the company is making waves with its newest model, the FREY Dopamine 2.0.
The e-bike was just unveiled today and offers an update to the companyâs innovative high-performance ride.
The full-suspension electric mountain bike includes both an upper and lower idler pulley in the pedal drivetrain, eliminating pedal kickback and offering a smoother pedaling experience. Combined with the high-pivot suspension using a RockShox Deluxe 205*65mm rear shock and RockShox YARI 29*160mm front fork, the bike should be able to handle some serious trails.
But of course FREY bikes arenât just designed for cruising downhill. Theyâre known as some of the highest-power electric mountain bikes in the game, and the Dopamine 2.0 doesnât disappoint. The Bafang M560 mid-drive motor may carry a 500W designation on the spec sheet, but that relatively modest continuous power rating is betrayed by the stump-pulling 140 Nm torque rating, meaning hill climbs can just about tackle terrain steep enough to run into traction issues before power issues.
With a top speed of 45 km/h (28 mph), it can make quick work of the flats, too.
Carrying that power is a chain-driving SRAM NX11s drivetrain, giving riders plenty of gear ratios to choose from. And the FREY Dopamine carries one more trick up its sleeve, too. If youâve followed electric mountain bikes for any amount of time, youâll know that one feature is as rare as henâs teeth: a throttle. In addition to offering high value with factory direct supply, one of FREYâs biggest differentiators is that the company offers higher power motors that come complete with throttles installed.
Theyâre removable for riders who want to maintain a pure pedal-assist experience, but many US riders enjoy the type of riding experience made possible by the high-power setup that comes on at the push of a throttle.
