The electric catalogue ranges from balance bikes for the youngest riders to high-performance machines. The E-Drive 12 and its Custom Pro version, the E-Drive 16 in standard, Pro and Custom Pro versions, and the E-Drive 18, 20 and 24 Custom Pro form a progression designed for riders to move up a level as they grow.
