Who We Are
We are Steven & Dan. Two guys from Chicago who knew nothing about running an e-bike company five years ago! Some would say (actually a lot of people would say), "these guys have no business entering the e-bike market." Well...those people would be right! However, common sense did not stop us! The determination to achieve our vision had remained steadfast: creating the most powerful e-bike in the market with both quality and affordability in mind. We knew it was possible to create an e-bike with the biggest battery, most powerful motor, and unmatched performance all at an affordable price. Something that no other e-bike company had accomplished. Fast forward 5 years. Wired Ebikes was born and the e-bike market became officially disrupted!
Steven's Story
When my kids were little, I always "needed" to make their electric toy vehicles faster and much more powerful than how they came. I could not help myself! Power Wheels conversion from a 12v, single motor system to a 52v, dual motor system with rubber tires for traction and tricked out with blue interior LED lights and an off road light bar! My10 year old son's electric Razor motorcycle somehow magically got converted to a 60v system with a 1200w brushless motor while he was sleeping one night! Yes, I have serious issues. I then became obsessed with creating an e-bike that was much more powerful than the rest. Something that didn't look like it was made with the same "cookie cutter" as the rest.

Dan's Story
As a kid, my friends and I were obsessed with our bikes. We all had hand me down bikes from older siblings that we would take completely apart, strip off all of the old paint, sand them to a mirror finish and then paint them with multiple layers of paint and gloss. We would then use all of our paper route money to buy the best wheels, tires, brakes, handlebars and grips to try to build the best bike we could. As I got older, that obsession turned to cars. I loved the 60’s and 70’s muscle cars and as soon as I saved enough money I bought my first old muscle car and set to work souping it up to make it faster and nicer. As an adult, my love of biking was rekindled and my wife and I love to join all of our friends to take long bike rides to enjoy nature and friendship all while reliving the joy of the wind blowing through your hair as you delight in the feeling of freedom when you are out on your favorite bike. Once I discovered the thrill of E-Bikes, I was hooked. I wanted to build the most powerful and longest range E-Bike on the street.

Our E-Bikes
Our goal was to make a fantastic product for an incredible price. If you look at the specs of our e-bikes, there is NOTHING that comes even close for the price. Our dual battery system includes a 60v 20Ah battery in the front and a 60v 15Ah battery in the rear. That is a total of 2100Wh's of distance dominance! We use Samsung cells for all of our batteries. So, not only are they the biggest around, they are also the best quality. We use a rear geared hub motor manufactured by Hengtai. These monster motors output 3200w of peak power! This is one of the highest quality motors available on the market. Our motors use a hybrid of steel re-enforced internal gears. Bafang, the most popular motor for e-bikes uses nylon gears! Why? Because nylon is cheaper than steel. We use a color display when most other companies use a black and white display. Our controllers are 45 amps. No other e-bike company currently uses more than a 40 amp controller. Most use 22 amp controllers. Why? Because they are cheaper. There is no other company that produces an e-bike with as much power, speed and affordability as Wired Ebikes. Other companies try and imitate us. However, nobody rivals us! Wired Ebikes is the true innovator in the ebike market.
