Hyper Bike Co. Unveils the Black 'Ultra 40' Commuter E-Bike

— August 13, 2022 — Autos
Hyper Bike Co. is launching a new ‘Ultra 40’ e-bike model that is both reasonably priced and highly versatile. The ‘Ultra 40’ is a beginner-friendly e-bike that boasts an aluminum frame for added durability, a set of large tires, a suspension fork, and a replaceable battery with 1.04 amp-hours of power. Designed as an alternative for commuters, the ‘Ultra 40’ stores its battery power within its frame and can hit up to 20 miles of range on a single charge, and also comes with a 250W hub-integrated motor.

Hyper Bike Co. prioritizes offering affordable, commuter-friendly e-bikes that come equipped with all of the necessary features for a smooth trip. The ‘Ultra 40’ can be used on road and on light, off-road terrain, but is clearly designed for a more urban driving experience. Priced at $1,200 USD, the ‘Ultra 40’ e-bike will be available on the Hyper Bicycles website shortly.
