About Vintage Electric
Vintage Electric creates different bikes. Bikes that inspire the way people move. The kind of bike that you always dreamed about owning. California born and California built.
Through style, quality, speed, and an ever growing family of owners, Vintage Electric is setting out to change the electric bike industry:
“Our bikes are not for everyone, but we sure as hell develop the best bikes for the people who get it. The tastemakers, the misfits, the hard workers, the people who want to ride different.”
Bicycling Magazine agrees: “To say the bikes are sexy and stunning is almost too subtle. The engineering here bears the mark of a tech company from Silicon Valley.”
