So get on and ride. Don't worry, your car will be just fine in the garage. Large 700c, puncture-resistant Schwalbe balloon tires that roll fast and decrease vibration on uneven roads for a smooth commute.

Front and rear LED lights, an ABUS ring lock and a color-matched bell add safety, security and style. About Electra At Electra, we are inspired by those who ride our bikes.

By the artistry of our culture. And the details that surround us. We started this company with the idea that we could always do better.

Better than what was out there. Better than what we've done in the past. Because we believe in the power of forward motion.

We believe that true innovation is what ultimately sets us apart. And we believe in the power of different. The way we see it, if you always take the same path, you are always going to end up in the exact same place.

So, we explore, we create, and we design with purpose. We design with the intent to enhance your lifestyle. And why we may have a relaxed view on just about everything, we're serious about our bikes.

How they ride, how they look and how you look riding them. That's how you pull away from the pack. Even when riding with someone on your handlebars.
