Maxwell Stoic e-bike on a wooden bridge over the water
Rochester, NY — Erie Canal country

The ultimate canal cruiser.

Meet the Maxwell Stoic — a 36 lb Class 1 electric bike that's equal parts lightweight commuter, light tourer, and Erie Canal explorer. No throttle, no fuss. Just pedal, and go.

One bike, three jobs

Commute it. Tour it. Cruise the canal on it.

The Stoic strips the e-bike down to what matters: a quiet 250W hub motor, pedal assist up to 20 mph, and a frame so light you'll forget there's a battery in it.

"Riding the Maxwell is different in that you really don't know it is an e-bike at all."
