Progressive geometry
With the same long-distance capabilities as its non-electric counterpart, El Camino doesn't compromise agility, speed or comfort. It's confidence-inspiring over the rough stuff and handles well whether loaded or unloaded.
Born for Britain's B-roads and bridleways, it's ideal for the mixed terrain of multi-day adventures - think the 350km long King Alfred or 230km West Kernow Way.
More miles, more climbs, more fun.
El Camino is to explore more. More miles, more climbs, more fun.
The stand-out feature is its smooth whole-bike riding experience thanks to the latest Kynamic BC250 system. El Camino has a torque sensor in the bottom bracket gauging pedal power and flowing in assistance to match your efforts for a natural ride feel.
Lightweight
Weighing just 3kg more than the non-electric Camino, it's lightweight enough to lift over a locked gate, load on a roof rack, or carry to your hotel room at your chosen overnight stop.
Powerful driving force
El Camino is powerful. Its integrated control panel comes with 3 power settings. Choose your heart rate as you ride: low power for all-day continual assistance, middle power for a sweat-free ride to work, or max power for a 20-mile blast around a local loop.
We balance weight, ride feel and performance with a 250Wh battery housed in the downtube and a 250W rear hub motor to give 45Nm of driving force and a real-life range of up to 70km of assisted riding. Enough for long day rides without significant weight penalty.
The battery complies with all US and EU regulations and does not contain minerals from conflict zones.
A range of over 120km is realistic with the 175Wh range extender that fits to a standard bottle cage mount.
On a mixed terrain ride we've achieved 70km from the built in battery using the lowest power assist setting, based on this, with the addition of the range extender 120km is entirely possible.
Using the higher power settings will drastically affect range, under constant use in the highest power setting we expect to get a range of around 20km, ideal for that quick commute or blast after work.
Various factors can affect range, including temperature, terrain and rider/luggage weight, the figures stated above are guidelines.
Smooth ride feel
El Camino is easy to ride unpowered. Its lightweight and low-drag drive allows you to ride at your road ride speed without assistance. El Camino is designed to invoke a joy-filled ride with power on and off, unlike other e-bikes. UK and EU law states that electric power can only assist up to 15.5mph, so we've obsessed over the details to create a bike that doesn't hold you back on speed.
Destined for adventure
El Camino has ample tyre clearance of up to 50mm and comes with Alpha EX wheelsets. We build the wheels ourselves to our exacting standards, with strong Sapim e-bike rated spokes - 32 hole rear and 28 hole front eyeleted rims. The rear hub drive features a Shimano HG freehub as standard and is compatible with 11-speed cassettes.
El Camino boasts multiple bottle cage and rack mounts for unlimited bikepacking configurations, and internal cable routing completes the signature aesthetic of our Camino family.

Kynamic BC250 hub drive technology is designed for gravel and road. Reliable and serviceable, it pushes you along without the wear to the chain, derailleurs or cassettes that can be a feature of some mid-drive systems. The low-drag system maintains a comfortable ride with or without assistance.
