E-Bike
Let us flatten the slopes and overcome headwind for you, and move your joints without the strain!
Electric assisted bikes (e-bikes) are easy to understand and easy to ride. You will be able to ride much bigger distances and keep up with the fittest riders. They have a range of 35 – 80 km on one battery charge and you can recharge them anywhere overnight if needed.
Our Moustache hardtail e-bikes can do it all!
With their compact frames and low centre of gravity, our e-bikes are as at ease in the town as they are in the country, on cycle paths or on forest roads. They are the SUV of electric bikes, comfortable and high performance, whatever the terrain it’s on! Suited to all riders.
