advene: the sleekest and smartest electric mountain bike designed by riders

after a cross-country mountain biking tour, cyclist-designer friends created advene. aiming to solve the challenges they faced in the sport, the creators set out to design a bike that could stand all weather and road conditions, security measurements, and even ride through the user’s own fatigue. their ideas and sketches resulted in an off-terrain electric mountain bike that lets bikers freely ride in nature yet feel safe and comfortable during their entire ride.

the designers drew from their experience as mountain bikers themselves and included various components to enhance the riding experience. advene’s basic form is a minimal, sleek bike frame that can withstand up to 400 pounds. the frame, as well as gearing components, is made of rust-free aluminum and the puncture-proof wheel set is water and dust proof. adding to the minimal aesthetic, the designers managed to make the battery removable and hidden to the sight. the ergonomic saddle enables a pleasant ride, making it an ideal bike for mountain experiences. the bike also holds a powerful yet silent motor that can speed up to 32 km/h. 

not only is the bike’s design sleek and sporty, but it also comes with a handful of smart features. the bike includes a computer dashboard with many options to enrich the ride. it includes an automatic drive function, six shimano 27 speed options, LCD for battery time, speed and distance display just to name a few. the bike also comes with a thumb throttle that allows the user to ride completely electric and have total freedom, or switch to the pedal assisted mode for when the rider needs more control. conveniently, the bike features 10 accessories and upgrade options available, making it able to customize to each user’s liking.
