RIDE REVIEW I INTENSE TAZER MX PRO
P122
While we tested the 2021 Tazer
MX Pro model here, the 2022 is very
close in spec and build but with up-
dated color and graphics. 2022 Tazer
MX's also receive Shimano's 12-speed
drivetrain upgrade over 2021's
11-speed, and they come equipped
with Intense-branded alloy bars and
stems in place of the Renthal units
that came prior.
Intense's Tazer MX lineup utilizes
the popular and potent Shimano EP8
Steps motor, providing 85 Nm of
torquey pedal-assisted power in three
modes (Eco, Trail, Boost). Powered
by a moderately sized 504Wh battery
and controlled through a Bluetooth
compatible Shimano Steps LCD dis-
play, the power part of this experience
is high-end and capable. We could
Ryan Nitzen is used
to jumping dirt
bikes and rides an
XC mountain bike
regularly. He adapted
well to the Tazer
MX handling.
