Classic roadster styling with modern e-bike power. The Swing5's belt drive and upright position make every ride a pleasure.
The Swing5 proves e-bikes don’t have to look like e-bikes. This is a classic roadster reimagined for the electric age – elegant step-through frame, upright riding position, belt drive, and the kind of timeless styling that wouldn’t look out of place in Amsterdam or Copenhagen.

The Swing5 is perfect if you:
- Want a bike that looks like a bike – Classic aesthetics with modern technology hidden beneath

- Value low maintenance – Belt drive means no oily chains, no cleaning, no adjusting
