In the News

“The e-bike has been designed and engineered for everyday commutes to be versatile, comfortable to ride and easy to hop on and off, thanks to its U-frame design.”

— Forbes

“The low step-through frame will certainly be a favorite among riders, and the smaller 20″ wheels with tri-spoke mag wheels help keep the bike’s heft in check.”

— Electrek

“The Delfast California e-bike is a statement. It was designed as a symbol of resistance in Ukraine by a Ukraine-based manufacturer.”

— autoevolution

“Delfast’s newest model, the California, isn’t a radical, badass electric dirt bike, but rather, a road-going city commuter with practicality in mind.”

STORY BEHIND THE BIKE

The design for the Delfast California eBike was born in Los Angeles with the grit and determination of Ukraine behind it.

Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, unprovoked. One of our designers was touring our new headquarters based in Los Angeles when the war broke out. How do you cope when you’re stuck outside of your war-torn country and feel unable to help? Design an eBike that represents more than yourself. With the help of the California team, and 30 employees working from the heavily bombarded Kyiv, he dreamt up quite possibly the best commuter eBike ever built.

The Delfast California is a symbol of resistance in Ukraine with the help of the United States. And it may be one of the most intelligent, powerful, classically beautiful commuter eBike ever designed.
