• Enjoy as-is, or personalize your ride with Electra accessories and make it your own with fenders, a basket or bell.
• The Shimano Revo Shifter allows you to change gears with ease and precision by the simple twist of your wrist.
• The hard case technology and reflective stripe on the Bontrager E6 Tires ensures that every ride is smooth and safe.
• Flat Foot Technology has been awarded not one, but two patents. Yeah, kind of a big deal. You really need to ride an Electra to feel it, but the overall benefit is comfort and control. It provides an upright, relaxed seating position with proper leg extension that allows you to plant your feet flat on the ground whenever you want or need to.
• Alloy Linear-Pull Brakes: These easy-to-use, low-maintenance brakes stop by the force of friction powered by squeezing the brake lever and therefor the wheel’s rim. Thanks, physics.
• Derailleur or “D” refers to an external shifting mechanism. It consists of a chain, multiple precision sprockets and a derailleur to “derail” the chain from one sprocket to another. It allows for quick transitions and more gearing options. Just remember to pedal while shifting and you’re good to go!
• Comfortable, Ergonomic Saddle and Grips
• Wires and cables are conveniently concealed in the your bike’s frame to maintain it’s clean, sleek design.
