Ride1Up has launched a new budget-friendly all-terrain e-bike that can carry loads up to 150lb on its rear rack, making it perfect for bikepacking expeditions if you can't bear to leave your creature comforts at home. After all, who really wants to go adventuring without their camping coffee maker and camping pillow?
The new Ride1Up Rift is an adventure bike equipped with big all-terrain tires, a 120mm suspension fork, and four-piston hydraulic disc brakes to provide the stopping power you need when carrying heavy loads. Adventure bikes are a fairly new class of bicycle, and are similar to a gravel bike, but with extra braze-ons or racks for attaching a collection of bikepacking bags.
