Magicycle announced a new line of e-bikes that will expand upon its Magicycle Cruiser series of bikes. The new bikes are the ultra long-range 'Magicycle Cruiser Pro' and the step-thru 'Magicycle Ocelot Pro.' The Cruiser Pro features a similar step-over frame to its predecessors with a few key improvements. The Pro version boasts a stronger battery, a more generous hydraulic suspension fork, and a 750-watt motor that delivers up to 1,000w of peak output.
The Magicycle Ocelot Pro, on the other hand, improves upon the step-thru design as well as the performance specifications of its predecessors. This e-bike features a maximum range of 80 miles per charge, a top speed of 28 miles per hour, and the same 750-watt motor as the Cruiser Pro. However, the Ocelet Pro has widened fat tires, a lowered frame for increased stability and comfort, and an abundance of cargo space above the rear wheel that make it an excellent all-purpose, long-range e-bike.

What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Ultra Long-range E-bikes
- Opportunity for companies to innovate this space with even more powerful batteries and longer ranges for electric bike enthusiasts.
- Step-thru E-bikes
- Opportunity to disrupt the e-bike industry by making it more accessible for people who have a hard time standing over bikes with traditional frames.
- All-purpose E-bikes
- Opportunity for companies to create e-bikes with more cargo space and features that make them practical for everyday use, beyond just recreation.
Sectors Adopting This
- Electric Bike Manufacturing
- Opportunity to produce more advanced high-range, step-thru, and all-purpose e-bikes that fill niches in the electric bike market.
- Sporting Goods Retail
- Potential for retailers to market specifically to e-bike enthusiasts looking for ultra long-range and all-purpose bikes, possibly partnering with manufacturers to create exclusive models.
- Sustainable Transportation
- Opportunity for companies in the transportation industry to expand the use of e-bikes as a sustainable mode of transportation for people who traditionally drive cars for longer commutes.
