Faster than a Hybrid or Comfort bike, more durable than a Road Bike! What is it? It's an Adventure Hybrid Bike!! NOW IN ELECTRIC Shimano STEPS Mid Drive System

Top Three Electric Mid Drive System: Shimano, Bosch and Yamaha are the top three mid-drive electric bike systems in the world. Mid Drive electric systems are the lightest and most efficient with the best ride feel and balance. Make sure your next electric bike has Shimano STEPS MID DRIVE electric motor system.

These are like road bikes with trail capable tires, flat bars and high-rise stems. More comfort and control than a regular road bike. Greater capability than a hybrid bike with wider tires and performance geometry. Lighter than similar priced mountain style electric bikes.

Adventure Hybrids AKA FlatBar Gravel Electric Bikes tackle virtually anything on a bike path, dirt road or groomed trail system. The Motobecane Elite eAdventure LTD comforts you with the superior ride of a precision engineered hydroformed Aluminum frame and Comfy Front Suspension Fork and durable, quality Genuine Shimano shifting components.
