The Ridgeback Arcus 2 Open Frame e-Hybrid Bike represents a refined integration of advanced technology and practical design, tailored to meet the demands of modern urban cycling. Constructed with a robust 6061 heat-treated aluminium frame, it offers a perfect balance between strength and lightweight agility, ensuring responsive handling and enduring reliability.

Equipped with the efficient Sportdrive MD250S motor delivering 250W of power and up to 90Nm of torque, the Arcus 2 provides substantial assistance that reduces rider effort during commutes or leisure rides.

This e-hybrid bike is designed specifically with women riders in mind, combining ergonomic considerations with a sleek open frame design to offer both comfort and style.
