E-bike deals published so far
Black Friday e-bike deals for 2026 are already running at several direct-to-consumer brands, weeks before Black Friday on Friday 27 November. This table lists what each brand's own US website showed when we read it on 1 November 2026. Prices and gifts change often during the season, so treat the table as a dated snapshot.
| Brand | What its site showed | Dates given |
|---|---|---|
| Aventon | "Don't Wait For Black Friday": up to $200 off plus free accessories, with models listed at $100 or $200 off (for example "Save $200, Now $1,599") | None |
| Himiway | Early Black Friday e-bike deals with VIP prices: up to $1,000 off select e-bikes from 1 to 15 November; from 7 to 30 November, eligible D5 2.0 purchases include a free 20Ah battery, limited to 30 units | 1 to 15 and 7 to 30 November |

Offers from all the stores we track are on our Black Friday deals page.
Which brands have announced, and which have not
On 1 November, six e-bike brands had live Black Friday offers on their own sites: Aventon, Himiway, Ride1Up, Mokwheel, Gotrax and Freego. Others had not announced one yet:
- Rad Power Bikes showed a "Rad Deals" section with no Black Friday wording.
- Lectric had a sale section but no Black Friday announcement.
- Velotric had a fall offer on the Summit 1.
- Heybike, Hovsco, NIU and Hiboy ran Halloween sales that ended on 31 October.
- Segway's US store returned a server error to our research tools, so we could not read it.
Brands often announce in mid November, so we will check them again and move them into the table above when they publish.
E-bikes by type
A discount only helps if the bike fits how you ride. Before comparing prices, decide which type you need, then compare like with like.
Commuter e-bikes
For daily rides on roads and bike paths, compare the motor's rated power, the battery's capacity in watt-hours, the range the brand states and the bike's class (Class 1, 2 or 3 in the US, which sets the top assisted speed and whether a throttle is allowed). Ride1Up, for example, says it specialises in Class 3 e-bikes that reach about 28 mph. Check your local rules on where each class may ride.
Fat tire and all-terrain e-bikes
Himiway's Black Friday list includes several fat tire models, and its D5 2.0 series is named in the free-battery offer. They are heavier than commuter bikes, so check the bike's weight and whether you can lift it onto a rack or up stairs. Mokwheel's free hitch rack is aimed at exactly that problem.
Folding and cargo e-bikes
Folding e-bikes trade wheel size and range for storage, so check the folded dimensions against your car boot or apartment. Cargo e-bikes are built to carry loads or passengers; Aventon's sale page lists a model that can carry up to two passengers. Compare the maximum load the brand states, including the rider.
Kids' e-bikes
Himiway lists its C1 kids' e-bike among its Black Friday models. For any kids' e-bike, read the brand's own age, height and speed guidance, and check your local rules, which differ from place to place.
Electric scooter deals
Two scooter brands had Black Friday offers on 1 November. Gotrax's Black Friday sale, with up to $600 off, covers e-scooters as well as e-bikes and ends on 30 November. Hoverfly listed its Z6 fat tire electric scooter with a seat at $480 under an Early Black Friday Sale. Hiboy's and NIU's Halloween sales ended on 31 October, and Segway's store could not be read.
When you compare scooters, look at the range the brand states (and the rider weight it was measured with), the maximum rider weight, the tire type (air-filled or solid), the scooter's own weight if you will carry it, and whether it has a seat. Kick scooters for young children are covered in our Black Friday toy deals guide.
Bikes without a motor: mountain, road, gravel and kids'
Regular bikes have fewer published Black Friday offers so far. Trek and Specialized showed sale sections on their sites on 1 November but no Black Friday announcement, and REI's site did not open for our research tools. Local bike shops set their own Black Friday offers, so ask your nearest shop what it plans.
- Mountain bikes. Compare suspension (hardtail or full), wheel size and the frame size chart, and ask whether the shop will fit the bike for you.
- Road and gravel bikes. Gearing and tire clearance matter more than the headline discount. If you are flexible on colour or model year, ask about last season's models.
- Kids' bikes. Kids' bikes are sold by wheel size, and children outgrow them quickly. Use the maker's height chart rather than age alone.
Helmets, shoes, lights and indoor trainers
None of the bike brands we read had a Black Friday price on helmets, cycling shoes, lights or indoor trainers on 1 November. Aventon's free accessory bundle and Mokwheel's free hitch rack are the closest thing so far. The CPSC notes that helmet requirements differ from one community to another, so check your local rules before you ride. Exercise bikes for home workouts are in our Black Friday fitness equipment guide.
Battery safety and certification
E-bike and e-scooter batteries are lithium-ion, and the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has specific advice on them. In its words, "Always be present when charging micromobility products. Never charge them while sleeping or when you are not at home." It also advises:
- Use devices and batteries designed, made and certified to the applicable voluntary safety standards.
- Do not buy or use "universal" chargers with these products, which the CPSC warns are a fire hazard.
- Never use a battery pack that has been modified or reworked by unqualified people, or one built with repurposed or used cells.
- Never put lithium batteries in the trash or general recycling; take them to a battery recycler or hazardous waste collection centre.
- Report battery problems to the CPSC on SaferProducts.gov.
Some brands state their certifications on their own sites. Ride1Up, for example, says it certifies most of its inventory to UL 2271 and to ANSI/CAN/UL 2849 through TUV. Look for the brand's own statement before you buy, especially on a heavily discounted bike.
What "free accessories" and price protection are worth
Many e-bike Black Friday offers come as a gift or a promise instead of a lower price. Here is how to weigh them:
- Free accessories. A bundle is worth what you would have paid for the items you will use, not the total the brand puts on it. If you already own a lock, lights or a rack, a straight discount may be the better deal.
- Free batteries. Himiway's free 20Ah battery with eligible D5 2.0 bikes is limited to 30 units, after which it offers a smaller battery or another gift. A second battery adds range, so its value depends on how far you ride.
- Price protection. Mokwheel says purchases are "price protected for 30 days". Read the terms to see how you claim if the price drops, and keep your order confirmation.
- Prize draws. Freego's refund draw is a chance, not a discount. Judge the bike on its actual price.
- No stacking. Himiway says its discounts and free gift offers cannot be combined, and many brands work the same way, so check before you add a code.
Shipping, assembly, warranties and returns
E-bikes usually ship in a large box and need some assembly. Ask what the brand's shipping includes and whether a local shop can build the bike. On returns and warranties, the brands' own pages state:
| Brand | Returns | Warranty |
|---|---|---|
| Mokwheel | 15-day returns | 2 years |
| Himiway | 15-day returns; its Black Friday terms say standard shipping, warranty and return policies apply | See its warranty page |
| Freego | See its returns page | 2 years |
A 15-day window is short for a bike you may not ride until spring, so check the bike on arrival. If you buy from a big retailer instead, our Black Friday returns and price matching guide covers its rules.
Cyber Monday e-bike and scooter deals
Cyber Monday 2026 is Monday 30 November. Gotrax's and Freego's Black Friday offers both run to 30 November, and Himiway's free battery offer runs to the same date, so several deals reach Cyber Monday without a separate sale. No e-bike brand had announced a Cyber Monday offer of its own by 1 November. We will add any here, and online deals from the stores we track are on our Cyber Monday deals page.
How we check these deals
Every offer on this page comes from the brand's own US website, read on 1 November 2026: Aventon, Himiway, Ride1Up, Mokwheel, Gotrax, Freego, Velotric, Hoverfly, Rad Power Bikes, Lectric and Segway, plus the CPSC's micromobility information centre. We have not ridden or tested these bikes, and we do not repeat brands' claims about being the cheapest. To judge a saving, see our guide Are Black Friday deals real?.
We will read these sites again on 16, 20, 24 and 27 November. Our other guides are in the Black Friday hub, including our sports and outdoor deals guide. This guide is written by the SavingArena Editorial Team.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to what readers ask about this topic.
When do Black Friday e-bike deals start?
Several have started. On 1 November 2026 Aventon, Himiway, Ride1Up, Mokwheel, Gotrax and Freego all had Black Friday or early Black Friday offers on their own sites, weeks before Black Friday on 27 November.
Are Black Friday electric scooter deals worth it?
They can be, if you compare the stated range, rider weight limit, tire type and scooter weight. On 1 November 2026 Gotrax had up to $600 off e-bikes and e-scooters to 30 November, and Hoverfly listed its Z6 scooter at $480.
Are e-bike free accessory bundles worth it?
Only for the items you would use. Value a bundle at what you would pay for those items yourself, and compare that with a brand offering a straight discount instead.
Are kids' bikes on sale for Black Friday?
Few kids' bike offers were published by 1 November 2026, though Himiway lists its C1 kids' e-bike among its Black Friday models. Check the maker's height chart before you buy.
Do bike shops have Black Friday sales on regular bikes?
Some do, but Trek and Specialized had only sale sections, not Black Friday announcements, on 1 November 2026. Local bike shops set their own offers, so ask your nearest shop.
How should I charge an e-bike battery safely?
The US Consumer Product Safety Commission says to be present while charging and never to charge while sleeping or away from home. It also warns against universal chargers and modified battery packs.
