To make a U-District, we take an existing production frame and modify it to suit the individual rider\u2019s needs. We can add, change, or remove any braze-on as well as modify any parts that the motor might interact with. After that, it\u2019s a fresh paint job and installing a powerful motor and battery system. This method allows us to offer &nbsp;bike with an accessible price that is still flexible enough to meet your needs. This also comes with R+E\u2019s dedication to fit and comfort. No one wants to ride a bike that doesn\u2019t fit, no matter what kind of motor it has. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A Rodriguez e-bike<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>A full custom Rodriguez is the only answer for those that want the most out of their bike. Every aspect is taken into consideration to meet the rider\u2019s needs and our e-bike versions would be no different. If you have a specific vision of what you want your bike to be, a Rodriguez is the answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A KHS Envoy e-bike<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>For the more budget conscious rider, we offer the <a href=\"https:\/\/khsbicycles.com\/bikes\/2019-khs-models\/envoy-200-19\/\">KHS Envoy<\/a>. It\u2019s a way for you to get an entry level e-bike backed by our proven commitment to service and comfort. We\u2019ve worked with KHS for decades to provide entry level bikes for our customers and they\u2019ve produced an excellent e-bike that we\u2019re happy to sell at our shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing we\u2019ve learned is that the e-bike motor is still in flux. New designs are coming out often and old ones going away just as fast. Our service technicians are learning the skills to work on any of them that come down the pike. We will uphold our commitment to service no matter which way the winds blow. That\u2019s always been our promise to customers and we don\u2019t plan on changing.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To celebrate the introduction of our U-District e-bike, we have an introductory offer happening right now. The first ten U-District bikes we sell will go for the low introductory price of $2499.99 and you will be able to choose any single color paint job you want. These first ten won\u2019t be available for long, so get in touch today.
