ETILITY DESIGN. A BETTER RIDE, MORE CARGO & GOOD LOOKS.
THE ETILITY BIKE.
A typical ebike offers a nice ride, but not much utility. A cargo ebike carries heavy loads, but can be difficult to maneuver. We believe what people really need is an everyday ebike engineered with the perfect blend of ride dynamics, cargo capacity and good looks. Awesome agility with the ability to carry exactly what you need. We call it Etility® Design and it’s at the heart of every Benno ebike.
THE BOOST DOES MORE, SO YOU CAN DO MORE.
The Benno Boost, with Etility® Design, is up for anything and able to carry more than 3x the load of a typical bike. Flatten hills and shorten distances with the industry leading Bosch mid-drive electric motor and dual battery option, delivering unrivaled performance with up to 160 miles of range. Read More…
THE STEP THROUGH THAT RAISES THE BAR.
The eJoy, with Etility® Design, is so much more than cute. This is a seriously smart, seriously capable bike built around the industry leading Bosch mid-drive electric motor. The sturdy rack and available front trays and storage bags let you carry 2x more weight than the typical bike. Read More…
NOT ALL WHEELS ARE CREATED EQUAL.
The 46er is the same length as a regular bike. And that’s where all similarities end. We ditched convention and added capability. Enough to make any cargo bike sweat. And gave it a sporty ride and front suspension. This unequaled combination of ride and capability starts with unequal wheels. 26″ in the front for extra comfort and control, and 24″ in the back for strength and a lower center of gravity.

MADE FRESH FROM SCRATCH.
The RemiDemi® breaks all the rules of how a bike is supposed to look and ride. We gave it small wheels and fat, grippy tires for major maneuverability. A thick, sturdy frame with a convenient low step through. And an upright seating position atop a wide saddle that puts you in total control. Read More…

![By BRUCE HOROVITZ | 02/16/2023 Benno Baenziger, the guy who created some of the best-selling bikes in America, never particularly liked to ride bikes. Really. So he designed one that even he would use. Now bike enthusiasts globally are so enamored with the Electra and Townie bikes that he designed that they’ve even created Facebook (FB) pages that worship them like a two-wheeled effigy.
