We here at WIRED are big fans of bikes, electric bikes, bike accessories, and any vehicles, policies, or infrastructure that advance active transportation. Getting people more active as they go about their daily business provides exercise, builds resilient, close-knit, mixed-income communities, and helps develop safer streets. As Portland, Oregon, school teacher and bike advocate Sam Balto once told me in an interview, active transportation rules. “It's the shit! It's the best!”
So many companies are offering deals on electric bikes for Cyber Monday, including some of our favorite Specialized bikes. That makes this the perfect time to order your new ebike (or upgrade your existing one) for a holiday present (or for yourself)—get started on your new commute plan for the new year.
We test products year-round and handpicked these deals. The discounts we show are based on actual street prices at retailers in the past few months. Products that are sold out or no longer discounted as of publishing will be crossed out. We'll update this guide throughout the day.

Electric Bike DealsSpecialized Tero 3.0 for $2,000 ($1,250 off)Specialized
We tested the premium version of this bike (8/10, WIRED Recommends) and loved it. The best way to describe it is that it's one of Specialized's cushiony, comfy mountain bikes that has been given a motor and some adjustments to make it an all-around quiver killer. This will be the most-used bike you own.
Bunch Bikes Holiday Glow Bundle ($745 Value)Bunch Bikes
It's annoying that your expensive electric cargo bike needs more accessories to make it safe and useful. Bunch Bikes' holiday bundle lessens that sting with included lights, a bell, and additions. This huge-capacity bike was my husband's and children's favorite family cargo bike.
Lectric XPedition for $1,349 ($276 off) + Free AccessoriesLectric
This is one of our favorite affordable electric cargo bikes. My husband rides this bike, and it's powerful enough for me to ride on the back behind him without feeling wobbly or struggling up hills. It's comfortable and astonishingly affordable for the specs. Every model that Lectric makes is on sale; my colleague Julian Chokkattu also likes the XP 3.0 (7/10, WIRED Recommends).
Aventon Aventure.2 for $1,599 ($400 off)Aventon
We've tried several Aventon models and appreciate the high level of quality for a relatively low price point. (The accessories are better than Lectric's, too.) This fat-tire ebike (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is affordable, versatile, and has built-in commuter essentials. We also like the Soltera.2 ($999), and the Abound ($1599) is one of our favorite family cargo bikes. Both are also on sale.
Rad Power Bikes RadRunner 2 for $1,299 ($200 off)Rad Power Bikes
Rad Power Bikes is one of the first direct-to-consumer ebike companies, and as such it has been the subject of some painful lawsuits as the market has grown. However, it's still a very popular bike, very affordable, and very fun and easy to ride. All of their bikes are on sale, but most people I know ride the basic RadRunner, which is insanely powerful for the price, if a little unwieldy for smaller riders.
Electra Loft Go! for $1700 ($300 off)REI
Electra's newest comfy cruiser (7/10, WIRED Review) is almost 20 pounds lighter than the last time I tested it, thanks to a new, super-lightweight motor. It's beautiful, perfect for keeping up with my much faster husband, and now even more affordable.
Free Extra Battery with JackRabbit eBike Purchase and Code BFOGJackRabbit
There are now two different versions of our favorite micro ebike, which is endlessly useful and fun for puttering around your neighborhood. There is no discount on the bike itself, but an extra battery extends the time between charges.
REI Co-op Cycles Generation e1.1 Electric Bike for $899 ($600 off)REI
We're still sorting out a full review on this bike, but what we can say is that we love REI's e-mountain bike and that REI bikes generally have quality components, great service, and a more than fair price. I also have several friends who own this bike and are quite happy with it.
Wing Freedom X for $1,148 ($700 off)Wing
This is the affordable, DTC version of the now defunct VanMoof (8/10, WIRED Recommends). You get a stylish aluminum frame with a Bafang motor for not a lot of money. All of Wing's bikes are currently on sale.
Ride1Up Cafe Cruiser for $1,195 ($400 off)Ride1Up
Ride1Up positions the Cafe Cruiser as its light, affordable daily cruiser (7/10, WIRED Recommends) but with a 750W motor and a 65-pound frame, it's pretty big and powerful for an entry-level bike. Still, at this price (and for these specs!) it's a pretty amazing value.
GoTrax F2 for $719 ($280 off)GoTrax
We've tested a number of GoTrax's escooters but we like the company's folding, step-through ebike as well. It has the usual pitfalls of a cheap folding ebike (heavy, awkward) but it has a decent 20-mile range and all the commuter essentials for well under $1,000.
Propella 7S for $799 ($400 off)Propella
This is our best all-around affordable electric bike. Propella's 7-speed bike (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is one of the lightest, most efficient, and most comfortable in this category.
Bike Accessory DealsPeak Design Universal Bar Mount for $35 ($15 off)Peak Design
We love pretty much everything Peak Design makes, which is amazing because almost everything is currently 10 to 15 percent off. The Universal Bar Mount snaps on and off your own bike or a last-minute rental scooter and is one of our Best MagSafe Accessories. It locks your phone in place with the Everyday Case (which is also on sale, unless you want the iPhone 15 or Pixel 8 versions). The bags are on sale today.
Nutcase Bike Helmets: 40 Percent offNutcase
Take it from a reformed never-helmet rider: Wear a helmet! It's not worth it if you crash. With style as good as those at Nutcase, you'll get compliments and admiring looks much more often than derisive snickers. Where else can you find a bike helmet painted to look like a watermelon? Protect your melon. Ride helmeted.
Showers Pass Crosspoint Gloves for $33 ($14 off)Showers Pass
If you're biking outside in the winter, you need gloves. These aren't going to be as warm as shell gloves, but for above-30-degree temperatures in the rain, they keep my hands warm and dry. Showers Pass is one of my favorite rainwear companies and it's holding a week of Cyber Specials.
Thule T2 Pro X Hitch Bike Rack for $520 ($130 off)AmazonBackcountryThule
I've used Thule roof racks for years, but a hitch rack is easier and more versatile for getting you and your bike to that waterfront jaunt or friend's house in the country. Thule is having a 20 percent off sale and there are many other types of racks available, as well as my favorite convertible multisport trailer.
Free Carrying Case With Every Montague Bike Ordered with Code HOLIDAY23 ($125 Value)Montague
In his review of the folding ebike Montague M-E1 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) reviews editor Julian Chokkattu referred to the M-E1 as "pretty darn close to perfection." This is not an amazing deal, but if you have a folding ebike, you were probably going to travel with it anyway.
