Polestar has revealed their latest vehicle, and only 100 will be made. It’ll cost from £9702 and be delivered at the end of summer 2022.
It’s not the Polestar you’re thinking, though; this one has two wheels, and the pedals require a bit more effort from you to get moving. Teaming up with Swedish high-end, family-owned bicycle manufacturer Allebike, Polestar reveals this all-new limited edition mountain bike.
The co-engineered full suspension mountain bike will be called the Allebike Alpha Polestar Edition, where you’ll be able to purchase it from the Polestar Additionals webshop, available in two matte colours Snow (white) and Space (black).
Made from lightweight and rigid carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP), the frame is co-engineered and co-designed by Polestar and Alle bike, offering a responsive ride on a solid base. Taking tech from Polestar cars, the bike is equipped with state-of-the-art Öhlins dampers – some among you may notice they’re in the same gold you’ll find on the cars. The Polestar versions of the Öhlins RXF34 m.2 29 Air Suspension with 130mm travel at the front and the TTX1Air with 120mm travel at the rear are tuned specifically to give the limited-edition mountain bike optimal performance.
You’ll find a SRAM XX1 AXS Groupset to get up those killer climbs and a 125mm wireless dropper seat post to help you nail those descents. The carbon fibre 29-inch Vincent wheels are tubeless-ready with a carbon Gemini Kästor handlebar.
Alexander Blomqvist, Head of Design and Co-founder of Allebike, says the ‘Allebike Alpha Polestar Edition offers a fast, fun and steady experience on both uphill and downhill trails, and puts a smile on the face of every rider. As a Swedish bicycle manufacturer, we are proud to work closely with fellow Swedes Polestar and Öhlins in this project, and we are all equally obsessed by tuning every little detail to perfection.’
Still, you can be safe knowing that whichever colour Allebike Alpha Polestar Edition you choose, Polestar has made sure that it’ll match and compliment your car perfectly.
