Polestar and Allebike unveil a high-end limited edition electric mountain bike. It’s beautiful, but it’s so expensive!
The commercial argument is to enhance the range of electric SUVs that already includes the Polestar 3 and Polestar 4. Fair enough, but on our side, we will directly classify it in the category of high-margin derivative products given how unlikely the link to the cars is.
To develop this little mechanical gem, Polestar partnered with the Swedish high-end bike company, Allebike. The fully suspended electric mountain bike combines a Polestar Space black exterior paint with certain parts such as shock absorbers tinted in the signature Polestar color, Swedish gold. Gold and black definitely match, so the result is stunning and showcases the very aggressive aspect of the two-wheeler.
The adjustable compression and rebound suspension, with 170 mm of travel at the front and 160 mm at the rear, is a mark of seriousness. The rigid frame made of polymer reinforced with carbon fibers offers exemplary stiffness and solidness capable of tackling the most demanding trail and enduro tracks. The Shimano EP8 motor, powered by a 750 Wh battery, provides a solid boost uphill. All the gear shifting mechanics are signed by Shimano.
This Allebike Elize Polestar Engineered is offered in the Polestar online shop for the price of 7,120 euros. It is available in all European Union countries including France. We shouldn’t necessarily tell you this, but the equivalent model, without the Polestar signature, costs 1,000 euros less at Allebike, but shh!
