ELECTRIC BIKES The fastest-growing bike category in the world has the greatest potential to change that world. Electric bikes are the answer to the barriers that keep us from riding longer, farther, and faster with less effort. They make riding more accessible to more people. And that’s a great reason to love them.
ELECTRIC Whether it’s riding with loved ones, keeping up friends, riding longer or more difficult routes, or commuting to work, the reasons why electric bikes are awesome are as numerous and diverse as the people who love them. The good news is that we have an electric bike for every reason and every rider.

7 ALL-NEW HARDTAILS We love great hardtails because they provide unforgettable experiences. A hardtail is the kind of mountain bike that introduces most new riders to the trail, and a great one can spark a lifelong love of the sport.
