While some companies have aimed to slim down their e-bike products to be more accessible, Huck has gone the opposite route.

The Stinger ($9,000) boasts a custom-designed frame and is available only on a made-to-order basis. It’s powered by dual 60V batteries and rides on 17-inch spoked wheels. An optional Performance Upgrade ups the battery voltage and introduces advanced powertrain, shock and suspension technology, plus a waterproof display, and boosts the max speed to 55 mph. Regardless, both versions of the Stinger claim a 65-mile range.
