PURE UNICORN U3: 750W Step-Over Mountain eBike with Throttle

The PURE UNICORN U3 brings mountain-ready performance at an unbeatable price point of $799. Outfitted with a 750W nominal power motor and 59 Nm of torque, this step-over eBike delivers punchy acceleration on trail climbs and fire roads. Riders can expect up to 60 km of assisted range from its 614 Wh battery pack, while the integrated throttle lets you maintain speed without pedaling. Weighing in at 27 kg, the U3 balances stability and portability, making it ideal for weekend adventures or daily commutes. Whether you’re new to e-MTB or upgrading your ride, the PURE UNICORN U3 offers solid specs and a user-friendly design.

Power and Performance

At the heart of the PURE UNICORN U3 is a 750W nominal power motor that peaks during tough uphill sections. With 59 Nm of torque, it accelerates from standstill smoothly, even on loose gravel or steep singletrack. The step-over frame design ensures a low center of gravity and confident handling in technical terrain. A responsive electronic throttle lets you choose between pedal-assist levels or full throttle mode for rapid bursts of speed. This combination of raw power and intuitive controls gives riders precise command over their eBike, whether climbing forest paths or speeding along service roads.

Battery, Range, and Build

The U3’s 614 Wh lithium-ion battery is integrated into the downtube, offering clean aesthetics and balanced weight distribution. Under typical mixed-terrain use, riders can achieve up to 60 km per charge, with range varying based on assist level and rider weight. At 27 kg, the U3 is heavier than a pure road eBike but remains manageable for lifting onto racks or trail obstacles. Sturdy alloy rims, wide knobby tires, and hydraulic disc brakes round out the build, delivering traction and stopping power when tackling mud, gravel, or rocky paths.
