Chimera Electric BMX (Founder's Edition)
Our "Founder's Edition" features the same full titanium frameset as our Standard Edition, but also offers the carefully curated mix of high-end, weight-shaving components seen on the prototypes that we spent over two years developing; titanium cranks, Tubolito tubes, enduro clutch bearings, titanium bolts all around, and a variable current fast-charger. The estimated weight is 35.5lbs. See "specs" tab below for more details. Also be sure to check our social media accounts for updated and close-up photos.
This first run of 100 "numbered edition" bikes are pre-order only, and feature your number in the series etched into the frame. Please understand that when you make a purchase, your bike will be put into production, and will take up to 10 months to make. For legal reasons, we have to say that the top speed is 15mph.
