Ebikes are associated with city living, but the Freway Mountain Bicycle is intended to offer enhanced functionality when going on a rural cycling trip. Outfitted with smart pedal-assist technology, the bike allows for a more natural transition to the world of ebikes. This is because pedal-assist will simply offer riders an extra touch of power to help them go further and ride at an accelerated rate.
The bike features a Lithium electric motor to offer expansive capabilities when riding to continue on with journeys without feeling fatigue.
The Freway Mountain Bicycle was funded via a Kickstarter campaign where the bike received over $170,000 in funding and has gone on to become a favorite amongst riders. The bike can currently be purchased online by contacting the brand and at select retailers.
