Giant Group launched an e-bike-focused sub-brand named 'Momentum.' The initial collection of e-bikes launched by Momentum will cover city-focused commuter bikes, as the brand has yet to enter the electric mountain bike market. These bikes are focused on maximizing comfort, range, and pedal assistance to ensure that riders reach their destination without feeling exhausted, as they are designed for employees commuting in the mornings.
The Momentum e-bikes retail for approximately $3,500 USD and offer roughly 106 miles of range per charge. On top of this, the bikes offer varying levels of pedal assistance that allow the range to be extended if the rider puts in more effort. While Momentum only recently entered the electric micro-mobility market, Giant Group hopes to spearhead the industry and solidify Momentum as an industry-leading brand.
