Powerful, lightweight, and compact 36V, 350-watt motor provides a consistent cruising speed of 20 mph, and the pedal assist adds power to every pedal stroke. The 650B road bike wheels and wide gravel tires provide comfort and control on gravel, hard-pack dirt roads, or city streets. All in a sleek and stylish package. Our Hilltopper Discover Electric Gravel Road Bike is the go anywhere, do everything bike, built for those who love to ride.
Whatever riding you like to do, be it city streets or gravel farm roads, the Discover will get you there and back in comfort and style. We designed the Hilltopper Discover Electric Gravel Road Bike to be lightweight and maintenance-friendly. The drivetrain is a 1 x 9 system that eliminates the front derailleur while giving you a wide range of gears in the back for tackling the hills. And our 36V 350W rear hub motor with built-in torque sensor will give you all the assist you need. We also made sure the Hilltopper Discover Electric Gravel Road Bike has all the attachment points you need to outfit your bike with fenders, lights, racks, bags, and water bottles of your choosing. We are even providing a front rack to get you started.
Integral to the performance of the bike, the Hilltopper Discover Electric Gravel Road Bike boasts a modern 1 x 9 drivetrain system. The Microshift Advent system has an advanced, smooth-shifting rear derailleur with an innovative design. The 9-speed cassette has a wide ratio, 11-42T, allowing you to find the right gear for the right terrain. The Advent shifter great feel and precise shifts. The entire system is designed from the ground up by Microshift to be user-friendly and maintenance-free, to keep you on the road and riding.
At the center of things is the Hilltopper Discover 36V 350W rear hub electric motor. Small & compact with a high torque to size ratio, this motor provides a sustained 20 mph cruising speed and higher with pedaling. The torque is roughly equal to two Soul Cycle instructors’ combined pedal power. The rear motor also has a built-in torque sensor for smoother, instant, and reliable power transmission with every pedal stroke. Hilltopper motors are legendary for their long lifespan and are maintenance-free.
Powering the motor is an advanced 11.4Ah lithium battery. The battery is integrated into the down tube for a sleek design and low weight distribution for better handling. It is easily removed for charging, and the keyed lock keeps it safe and sound on your daily errands.
Throttle or pedal assist? We designed the Hilltopper Discover Electric Gravel Road Bike to have both, so you don’t have to choose. The PAS (pedal assist system), which uses the built-in torque sensor in the motor, gives you power with each pedal stroke. Choose 1 of 4 levels to assist you where you need to go. And hey, if the legs can’t make it up that hill or you need to quickly accelerate through the intersection, the throttle is there to give you a hand. How fast are you going? What is your battery life? The small, sleek LCD screen gives you all the information you need to explore that next bend with peace of mind.
We want to make sure everyone is able to ride, which is why we built the Hilltopper Discover Electric Gravel Road Bike in three sizes. The small frame is a step-through that comfortably fits men and women 4’10 to 5’8. As a step through it is also good for people new to cycling, or who enjoy a little more comfort getting on and off their bike. The medium frame comfortably fits men and women 5’2 to 5’8. The large frame comfortably fits men and women 5’8 – 6’5 and over. With an adjustable saddle and seat post, the Discover easily accommodates many body sizes and riding styles. At 44 lbs, the Hilltopper Discover Electric Gravel Road Bike is also one of the lightest e-bikes on the market, making it easier for everyone to carry up stairs, load onto a bus or train, or lift onto a car rack.
What is the Difference Between a Gravel Bike and a Road Bike? The Hilltopper Discover Electric Gravel Road Bike rides the middle path between the mountains and the road. Simply said, a gravel bike is a combination of a road bike (happy on smooth pavement) and a mountain bike (happy playing rough and tumble in the mud). Mellow single tracks, farm roads, gravel, crushed cobblestones, pot-holed city streets, tarmac — whatever. The Discover is a machine that’s capable of performing on various surfaces while sustaining comfort. We see the Hilltopper Discover Electric Gravel Road Bike as the perfect bike for those who love to ride and want one bike for all their adventures.
