Not just any ordinary old bike, Santa. I want one that has a powerful electric assist motor as well as automatic electronic shifting. And to top it all off, I want it to be custom built to my specifications.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I know what you are thinking, Santa. \u201cHo-Ho-Ho! Why, that doesn\u2019t even exist. How can my elves make something that hasn\u2019t even been invented yet?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Santa, it does exist and it\u2019s available right now!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your elves are not privy to this technology yet so let me tell you where this bicycle decked out with all these goodies can be found. The bicycle is called the <a href=\"http:\/\/rodbikes.com\/catalog\/disruptor\/disruptor-main.html\">Disruptor<\/a> and can be found at R+E Cycles in the University District of Seattle Washington.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rodbikes.com\/catalog\/disruptor\/disruptor-main.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rodbikes.com\/catalog\/electric\/images\/pink-shift-e-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"513\" height=\"385\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Santa, let me explain a little more about the <a href=\"https:\/\/rodbikes.com\/catalog\/disruptor\/disruptor-main.html\">Disruptor:<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A powerful motor capable of 750W<\/li><li>Automatic (yes automatic) or Manual electronic shifting that is uniquely engineered to withstand the torque that the powerful motor can dish out<\/li><li>A bunch of high-end components are already included<\/li><li>A reasonable weight (heck, even I can lift it up on my roof rack)<\/li><li>Any paint job you desire.
