Leoguar may be a newer name in the e-bike world, but the brand brings decades of OEM experience to its first eMTB model under its own banner: the aptly named Trailblazer. This entry-level eMTB is aimed at newer to intermediate riders, with one frame size designed to fit shorter to average heights and modern XC/Trail geometry for a confident ride.
The build kit features plenty of trusted names: a RockShox suspension setup, Shimano drivetrain and brakes, and Maxxis tires. The motor, however, is less familiar in the U.S., but it’s one worth knowing. The Motinova Magic T1 has 750W of peak output and 100Nm of torque, giving it serious climbing ability once you learn its ideal cadence for full engagement. If you maintain a higher cadence, it’s good; with a bit of programming refinement, it
could even be great.
Range testing from its 720Wh battery delivered impressive results, showing it’s ready for longer cross-country adventures. While it’s limited to one frame size and 27.5” wheels, the Trailblazer’s geometry, component choices, and motor performance make it a compelling option for riders looking for their first — or next — capable eMTB, without wanting to pay higher prices of legacy brands.
