NO RUST, NO GREASE
Every Priority bicycle features the signature rust- and grease-free Gates Belt Drive. Built with carbon fiber cords, it lasts 2–3 times longer than a standard chain—all without the grease on your hands or clothes. No lubrication needed. Just a quick rinse after a messy ride, and you’re good to go.
THE PERFECT AMOUNT OF PEP
Powered by a low-drag 350W front hub motor and a removable 374Wh battery integrated into the downtube, the Glide gives you just the right boost for easy cruising and commuting. Choose from three pedal assist levels—from a gentle push to a zippy assist. The balanced weight distribution makes it feel natural whether you’re riding with power or pedaling solo. The system is UL 2849 certified.
ON-DEMAND POWER WITH THROTTLE
The Glide comes equipped with a thumb throttle on the left handlebar, giving you instant access to motor power whenever you need it. Whether you're starting from a stop, getting up to speed, or just want a break from pedaling, the throttle offers a smooth, convenient boost at your fingertips.
SLEEK BATTERY INTEGRATION
With an expected range of 20–60 miles—depending on terrain, assist level, and rider weight—the Glide is more than capable of handling all your daily trips. Think 20 miles with full throttle, or up to 60 miles with more conservative assist. The 374Wh battery locks into the downtube with a key for easy removal and peace of mind—perfect for quick pit stops and convenient charging on or off the bike. The Glide maintains a clean, classic look without sacrificing performance. It’s a Class 2 e-bike with both pedal assist and throttle, capped at 20 mph. The battery is UL 2271 certified.
CONFIDENT STOPPING POWER
Hydraulic disc brakes deliver reliable, all-weather stopping power with minimal maintenance. They include a built-in brake-sensing rear light that cuts motor power when you brake, ensuring smooth, controlled stops. The Glide rolls on puncture-protected 700c x 38mm tires, offering comfort and confidence from dawn to dusk.
ALL DAY ENJOYMENT
The Glide features an upright frame geometry with a padded seat, wide 38mm tires, composite fenders, built-in front and rear lights, and mounts for accessories like racks or child seats. The backswept handlebars are fully adjustable for personalized comfort. Available with a medium step-over frame that’s easy to mount and dismount, the Glide’s lightweight design makes it easy to handle and carry, while its rust-resistant aluminum frame ensures durability for years to come.
Take a Closer Look at the Glide
A bicycle designed for all those moments when you think, “Should we just bike there?” The Glide offers just the right amount of electric boost with the look and ride feel of a traditional bike. From zipping across town to those rides when you decide to keep going, the Glide gets you there—no clunky drivetrain or greasy chain to slow you down.

FAQS
You have questions. We have answers.
Why does it feature a front hub motor?
We chose this motor because it's lightweight and low-drag, delivering a natural ride feel without adding bulk. Placing the motor in the front allows us to pair it with the Gates Belt Drive and Shimano Nexus 3-speed drivetrain—an ultra-reliable, low-maintenance combo that defines the Glide. It also helps balance the bike’s weight front to back, creating a smooth, stable, and easy-to-control riding experience.
What kind of rides are best on the Glide?
Casual cruises, light commutes, weekend errands, or just keeping up with friends. The Glide is perfect for the kind of everyday rides that make you smile.
What class e-bike is the Glide and how fast can it go?
The Glide is a Class 2 e-bike, offering pedal assist and throttle support up to 20mph. You can cruise with assist, tap into the throttle for on-demand power, or ride it just like a regular bike—no power required.
Should I buy the Glide, E-Coast, or Current Plus?
If you’re looking for a lightweight, low-maintenance e-bike with a natural pedaling feel, the Glide is your go-to. It offers both pedal assist and throttle support up to 20mph, perfect for casual rides and light commutes.
If you want a throttle-forward cruiser that can reach 28mph and has a relaxed, beach-town vibe, the E-Coast is the right choice.
If speed, range, and performance are your top priorities—think fast commutes and longer-distance rides—the Current Plus offers pedal assist up to 28mph, an available range extender, and the power to take on hills with ease.
Is the Glide compatible with a child seat or rear rack?
Absolutely! The Glide is a great choice for carrying your little one. It’s compatible with the rack-mounted child seats and rear racks available in our Accessories section.
What's the battery range?
20-60 miles depending on pedal assist level, terrain, rider weight, and temperature.
Can I change the tires?
The Glide is compatible with most 700c tires ranging from 28mm to 40mm wide. If you remove the fenders, you may be able to fit slightly wider tires, depending on the specific model. We recommend working with your local bike shop to confirm compatibility before making any changes.
