The Terminus is a one of a kind electric bike made from the highest quality components, custom built from the ground up to be an incredible performer for downhill racing or flying at high speed (nearly silently) across the tarmac. It employs a long travel double crown suspension fork with 160mm of travel and a high end Fox MXR float in the rear to keep the ride smooth and stable and the motor and battery weight are all kept low and center. It’s completely beautiful with carbon fiber mudguards, battery casing and built in LED lights. The display panel is bright and clear and the buttons to navigate the drive system are integrated directly into the downtube. No expense was spared in the making

The battery powering this bike is enormous! It offers 43.2 volts of power and 37.2 amp hours of capacity. That’s enough to hit 50mph and ride for 50+ miles before stopping off for a charge. While it’s not easily removable, it is positioned well within the frame helping to balance the weight of the bike. This is a heaver system compared with most ebikes but it’s obviously much more powerful and since most of the weight is kept away from the wheels the suspension performs perfectly and wheel and tire maintenance is a breeze. This is helped by the speedhub which keeps dirt and debris out and the chain super tight which is critical for racing applications where a break or drop can cost you the win.

Operating this bike is like interacting with a supercar. Circular aluminum buttons line the top of the downtube and the display is large, bright and center. A round electronic key is used to activate the bike and different keys are used to unlock different power levels. It’s a neat concept that keeps the bike street legal in 20mph “bicycle mode” vs. competition mode. The handlebars are kept mostly free of clutter, just the grip twister for changing gears and the twist throttle for activating the motor (if you get that option). And of course, the hydraulic brake levers that work with the enormous 203mm rotors to bring you back down to Earth.

It’s easy to bash this kind of elite toy but I really appreciate the attention to detail and spirit that was put into bringing it to life. They really started from scratch and yes, the price tag is high but this bike really performs. Sure, there’s no water bottle cage mount and the bike lacks a kickstand but it can climb mountains like a champ and the suspension will keep your back and neck in the game. It’s lighter than a Stealth, more refined than an Optibike and impressively quiet.

Pros:
Incredible performance with top speeds of 50mph and range of 50+ miles per charge
Offers both pedal assist mode and throttle mode (depending on the configuration you choose)
Available in multiple design themes and limited edition runs, kind of like art
Top of the line components from Schwalbe, Hope Tech, Supernova, Rohloff and Fox
The frame, front fork, rear fork, chain rings, front suspension, fenders and battery casing are custom fab
Very well balanced with a low center of gravity, unsprung weight is kept low with mid-drive design
Internally geared rear hub by Rohloff keeps the chain tight and on track for racing
Relatively quiet compared to other centerdrive electric bikes I’ve tested out
Hydraulic disc brakes are easy to reach and activate, the 203mm rotors cool quickly and provide great stopping power
All editions are limited to a maximum of 55 pieces per series.
