Bicycling Magazine has just posted up their pick of  “The Best eBikes You Can Buy Right Now” and the Remote CTRL took away Best Aluminum E-MTB award.

 

With a 150mm-travel RockShox Yari fork and 132mm of rear travel from the RockShox Monarch Plus R shock, the Remote CTRL is Kona’s first dual-suspension e-mountain bike. It’s powered by a 250-watt Bosch Performance Line XC mid-drive motor that uses the company’s progressive E-MTB mode that is adaptable to rider input, which means you don’t have to toggle through assistance modes while riding. It offers assistance up to 20 mph, and the 500Wh integrated battery is the largest Bosch currently offers. Beefy 27.5×2.8-inch Maxxis Recon tires offer plenty of traction and also help to absorb smaller hits.
