Inspired Design

The new limited-edition four-bike range takes design cues from McLaren’s award-winning supercars. Designed by the same teams responsible for the McLaren Artura hybrid supercar, these e-bikes incorporate signature McLaren elements such as carbon-fiber construction and advanced electrification, delivering a true high-performance experience.

The e-bikes feature powerful motors that provide an exceptional power-to-weight ratio, a key characteristic in the development of McLaren supercars. The torque figures surpass those of other premium e-bikes, ensuring class-leading performance. An innovative digital display, inspired by McLaren car driver displays, shows telemetry information like speed, battery life, and range on a full-color integrated LCD panel on the handlebars.

McLaren offers four distinct models: Extreme 600, Extreme 250, Sport 600, and Sport 250. These models cater to different riding environments, from city streets to off-road tracks and mountain trails. The flagship 600 versions boast up to 852W of peak power and a top speed of 20mph/32kph.

Two models, the 29” hardtail and the full-suspension version with 29” front wheel and 27.5” rear wheel, are available in limited numbers. The Extreme 600W and Extreme 250W feature SRAM wireless XX Eagle Transmission 12-speed drivetrain, while the Sport 600W and Sport 250W have a mechanical SRAM GX Eagle 12-speed drivetrain.

The McLaren Sport is an all-purpose mountain bike suited for various terrains. It features integrated components and a minimalist frame design. Riders can choose from five power modes via the digital display: Off, Eco, Trail, Sport, and Race, offering a tailored riding experience.

The Extreme model is a full-suspension electric mountain bike designed for maximum off-road performance, control, and comfort. It includes the same five power modes as the Sport model and comes with Pirelli tires, ensuring superior traction and durability.
