Giant SuedeE Electric Bike

The smooth, quiet and comfortable SuedeE cruiser model has been discontinued. Our Seattle service department is able to support our own customers with service, repairs and parts (including replacement NiMH battery).

It was the predecessor to the new Twist (a model with higher end bicycle components, of greater integration as well as Li-Ion battery).
