Bikes

Electra Bicycle Company is an American company specializing in the production of cruisers, as well as comfort and hybrid bicycles, accessories, clothing and bicycle parts.

About the brand and its main advantages

American quality since 1993

The history of the Electra Bicycle Company brand began in 1993 in California, when Benno Benziger and Jehano Erfort founded a company to produce stylish and comfortable urban cruise bikes.

The first Electra bike was a "cruiser" designed specifically for surfers. It had a wide steering wheel on which you could surf, and wide stable tires for driving on a sandy beach.

The key moment was the introduction of the Townie model in 2003 with the patented Flat Foot technology, which provided a more relaxed fit and comfortable ride, which became the basis of the brand's philosophy. Since 2014, Electra has been a subsidiary of Trek Bicycle Company.

Patented Flat Foot Technology®

This is a key brand innovation that has revolutionized traditional bicycle geometry.

The main advantages of Flat Foot Technology®

Correct posture. Shifting the pedals forward allows you to sit straight without bending over the steering wheel. This reduces the strain on your back, neck, and wrists.

Full contact with the ground. Due to the lower seat in the saddle, you can lower your feet to the ground without getting off the seat. This increases the sense of control and confidence, especially with frequent stops in the city.

Effective pedaling. Despite the relaxed fit, Flat Foot Technology® ensures that the foot is properly straightened when pedaling, which increases efficiency.

Corporate design, thought out to the smallest detail

All Electra brand bicycles have a recognizable style. While maintaining its traditions, the company is making changes based on the current expectations of potential consumers. Thus, the brand remains true to itself, but continues to evolve.

Celebrities also did not leave the brand without attention. Electra bikes have been liked by Jennifer Aniston, Paris Hilton, Jennifer Lopez, Miley Cyrus, Agnes Dean and many other celebrities, both abroad and in Russia.

A wide range of bicycle products
Electra has a wide range of cruisers, as well as comfort and hybrid bikes. The brand's range includes a variety of accessories (baskets, bells, wings) to personalize the bike and make it even more stylish and unique.
Quality components
Electra uses reliable components such as Shimano Nexus planetary bushings, which are virtually maintenance-free and dirt-proof. The frames are made of lightweight but durable 6061 aluminum, as well as high-strength steel.
Sturdy frame
Bicycle frames are made of high-quality and lightweight aluminum alloy 6061-T6, which ensures reliability and durability.
Security and confidence
The forward-facing pedal assembly and a more elongated frame allow the cyclist to comfortably lower both feet to the ground without getting off the saddle. This is especially useful for novice cyclists and those who are afraid of falling.
Multiple styles
Electra offers a wide range of bicycles, from classic vintage—style cruisers to more modern urban models. The company regularly releases limited editions with a unique design that is thought out to the smallest detail.

Features

Flat Foot Technology

Flat Foot Technology has been awarded not one, but two patents. One really needs to ride an Electra to feel it, but the overall benefit is comfort and control. It provides an upright, relaxed seating position with proper leg extension that allows the rider to plant feet flat on the ground whenever they want or need to.

V-Brakes

Earning its name from the shape the cable makes going up and over the tire, V-brakes provide a smooth stop as brake pads squeeze the rim.

Derailleur Gear System

Derailleur refers to an external shifting mechanism. It consists of a chain, multiple precision sprockets and a derailleur to 'derail' the chain from one sprocket to another. It allows for quick transitions and more gearing options. One just should remember to pedal while shifting.

Ergonomic Saddle and Grips

In addition to the pedals, the saddle and grips are the only places the rider comes in direct contact with a bike, so they must be extremely comfortable to make a ride safe and joyful.

Planetary hub

Internal shift system where all gears are housed inside a weatherproof rear hub. Can be multi-speed. Internal shift systems are low maintenance, easy to use and allow the driver to change gears without pedaling or standing still.
