Colorado’s Revel has revamped their lineup for 2025 by adding a few new bikes (like the new Rascal SL), updating build specs for all their carbon-framed MTBs and introducing new frame colors. The big news today is two totally new Revel models – The ReRun eMTB and the Ritual enduro bike.
Despite being naysayers in the early days, Revel has introduced pedal assist power to their lineup with the mid-powered, 165mm ReRun e-enduro bike. Catering to non-assisted riders, the Ritual is a new, long travel enduro bike which debuts Revel’s new in-frame storage compartment. Revel has also announced two new colors for their popular Ranger XC bike, which you can check out below.
Revel Re-Run eMTB:
The Revel crew admits they were one of the brands that once said they’d never build an ebike but… For 2025, the ReRun is their all-new, nimble and lightweight mid-power E-enduro bike. The ReRun is available with carbon frames only, and all models and sizes roll on MX wheels.
The ReRuns come equipped with 170mm forks, but the frame can host a 180mm fork if you wish to go longer.
Revel’s first pedal-assist bike offers 165 mm of rear travel, driven by a CBF (Canfield Balance Formula) linkage. This linkage features a co-rotating dual-link design, which aims to provide solid pedalling power while keeping the suspension active at all times. Revel says the linkage offers great small bump compliance, eliminates brake jack, and maintains its efficiency regardless of the rider’s chosen sag setting.
ReRun frames include direct mount chain guides, up to 36t chainrings (or 34t oval) can be run, and the frame accepts 31.6mm seat posts. The ReRun’s internal cable routing is fully guided for easy maintenance.
Out back are SRAM UDH compatible dropouts, and Boost 12x148mm rear axles. The rear end provides ample clearance for 27.5×2.6” tires.
Bosch Drive System:
Assisting the ReRun is a Bosch Performance Line SX motor. Power is supplied by Bosch’s Compact Powertube 400Wh battery. If you’re looking to ride longer loops, the ReRun is compatible with Bosch’s Range Extender. A 4A Bosch charger is included with each bike.
The drive system includes Bosch’s mini remote, and top tube mounted display screen that shows your assist and battery levels, plus houses the bike’s on/off switch.
Geometry:
The above chart shows all the numbers, but here’s a quick look at the ReRun’s key angles and dimensions: The head tube angle is 64°, and the effective seat tube angles range from 76° to 77.5° depending on frame size. Reach is roomy but not massive at 455mm for a medium frame and 480mm for a large. Chainstay lengths vary by size, ranging from 440mm-444mm.
Model Lineup and Pricing:
There are two build kits of the ReRun available – The Treeline or Summit. Frame color options for either are Glitter White or Cashflow (green).
Revel did provide weights for both models – The ReRun Treeline weighs 45.2lbs, while the Summit build comes in at 44.65lbs. Check out all the other specs and prices below.
Revel Ritual Enduro MTB:
The Ritual is Revel’s all-new pedal power enduro bike. The Rituals feature carbon frames only, with 165mms of rear travel and 170mm forks. Like the ReRun, the Ritual frame can run a longer 180mm fork.
The Ritual’s lengthy travel is managed by a CBF suspension linkage, with CNC finished suspension links. The pivot bearings are all contained within the suspension links rather than the frame, allowing for a stronger frame design and longer bearing life.
Small and medium Ritual frames roll on MX wheels, while the large and XL frames run a full 29” wheelset. This split wheel sizing is part of Revel’s new ‘Ratio Fit Philosophy’, pertaining to geometry, suspension tuning and wheel size. With the goal of every rider getting a consistent feel from their bike, Revel has introduced a wheel size split, size-specific chainstays, and size-specific suspension kinematics.
Given the Ratio Fit Philosophy, Revel intends riders to stick with 29” rear wheels on the larger framed Rituals. Running a 27.5” rear wheel will affect the frame’s suspension and geometry, negatively impacting the bike’s intended ride qualities. Thus, it is officially not recommended.
The Ritual is the first Revel bike to feature an in-frame storage compartment and accessory mounts on the underside of the top tube.
Key fitments include a 73mm BSA threaded BB with ISCG05 tabs, clearance for 36t (or 34t oval) chainrings, and a 31.6mm seat mast. The Ritual frame also includes SRAM UDH dropouts and a Boost 12x148mm rear axle and provides clearance for 2.6” tires (27.5” or 29”).
Last but not least the Ritual gets fully guided internal cable routing and frame protection on the chain and seat stays, plus the lower down tube.
Geometry:
The Ritual features a 64° head tube angle, and effective seat tube angles are 76-77° depending on frame size. Reach numbers are the same as the ReRun, with a medium frame at 455mm and a large at 480mm. Chainstay lengths are size-dependent, ranging from 434-441mm. See the above chart for all other figures.
Model Lineup and Pricing:
The Ritual is available in three complete builds plus as a frame kit. Frame color options are Quantum Race (teal) or Dark Matter (black). The frame kit sells for $3799 and includes a RockShox Vivid Ultimate rear shock, UDH derailleur hanger, rear axle and seat clamp.
Listed weights for the Ritual are as follows: Frame kit – 8.49lbs. Basecamp – 34.45lbs, Treeline – 34.5lbs, Summit – TBD (all size large).
Revel Ranger – New Colors:
The Ranger is Revel’s 29” wheeled, 115/120mm cross-country MTB. For 2025 it’s getting two new frame color options – Icy Blue (sparkle blue) and De La Coal (charcoal).
There are three builds of the 2025 Ranger available, plus a frame kit. The frame kit sells for $3599, and comes with either a RockShox Sid Luxe Ultimate or a Fox Float Factory rear shock, plus a UDH derailleur hanger, rear axle and seat clamp.
