Voltbike on the Oregon coast in the USA

Washington and Oregon Loves the VoltBike Yukon Bikes: Here's Why!

Welcome to the Pacific Northwest, where the beauty of nature meets the thrill of adventure. If you're in Washington State or Oregon, you're sitting on a goldmine of biking opportunities that perfectly match the capabilities of the VoltBike Yukon 750 and any of the many VoltBike Yukon Models.

Our range of Yukons include the Yukon 750, Yukon Step-Thru, our V2 models which incorporate the battery into the frame, the mid-drive Yukon Elite and last but not least, the mid-drive Yukon Core!

Here's why our flagship electric fat bikes are ideal companions for your journey through these magnificent coastal states.

 

Unmatched Scenery

Washington and Oregon are famous for their breathtaking landscapes. From the rugged coastlines of the Pacific to the dense, lush forests of the Olympic Peninsula, and from the volcanic peaks like Mount Hood to the serene trails of Crater Lake, the scenery is as varied as it is stunning.

The Yukon 750 (and all the Yukon models), with its 4-inch wide Kenda Juggernaut fat tires, can handle these diverse terrains with ease, whether you're cruising the sandy beaches or climbing the challenging trails of Mount Rainier and Mount St. Helens.

Year-Round Riding

One of the best aspects of living in Washington and Oregon is the ability to ride your bike throughout the year. The Yukon's design makes it an all-weather bike. With its powerful 500W (750W Peak) Bafang motor, you'll have no trouble navigating through the occasional snow in the winter or the damp, muddy trails after a Pacific Northwest rain.

Our various battery packs, featuring Samsung lithium-ion battery ensures you won't be left stranded, offering up to 45 to 75 mile per charge depending on the battery pack size, perfect for extended rides in the Columbia River Gorge or along the Hood River.

Our bikes are often used for recreation, but also work great for those with hunting in mind. Our Yukon Core bike for example is our most powerful, and with double the torque of the Yukon 750 or Yukon Step-Thru, it can be used to pull a utility trailer as well. 

Adventure at Every Turn

Both states are littered with trails that beg for exploration. In Washington, consider the adventure-filled trails of the Methow Valley or the scenic routes of the San Juan Islands. Oregon offers the McKenzie River Trail, known for its thrilling singletrack, or the quiet, scenic backroads of the Willamette Valley.

The Yukon 750's robust frame supports riders up to 320lbs, making it a versatile choice for both solo adventurers and those riding with friends or family. Its front suspension fork smooths out rough trails, ensuring comfort even on the most rugged paths.

Urban and Rural Compatibility

Whether you're navigating the bustling streets of Seattle or Portland, or exploring the more rural areas like the Palouse in Washington or the high desert of Eastern Oregon, the Yukon 750 excels. Its hydraulic disc brakes provide excellent stopping power, crucial for both city traffic and steep mountain descents.

The bike's practical features like a 55lb capacity rear rack make it a perfect utility bike for urban dwellers or weekend warriors looking to pack extra gear for camping trips.

Some essential accessories for this bike to get the most fun out of every mile are:

 

Community and Culture

The biking community in Washington and Oregon is vibrant and welcoming. Events like the Seattle to Portland (STP) bike ride showcase the region's love for cycling. With a VoltBike, you're not just buying into a lifestyle; you're joining a community that appreciates quality, performance, and the freedom of the ride.

Our VoltBike Yukon 750, with its sleek design and powerful performance, fits right into this culture, whether you're participating in local rides or simply enjoying a Sunday on the Burke-Gilman Trail or the Springwater Corridor.
