SERIAL 1 EBICYCLES, POWERED BY HARLEY-DAVIDSON
Serial 1 was created for the sole purpose of delivering innovative eBicycles that make every ride an adventure.
SERIAL 1, POWERED BY HARLEY-DAVIDSON, LAUNCHES BASH/MTN, THE SECOND OFFERING FROM ITS LIMITED-PRODUCTION “SELECT SERIES”
Inspired by a Serial 1 engineer’s personal build, the rigid, single-speed BASH/MTN eBike delivers the purest off-road riding experience possible
Today Serial 1 launched BASH/MTN, the second offering from its Select Series—limited-edition, special-production versions of the company’s standard eBikes that have been elevated with premium finishes, added technology, and unmatched attention to detail. (The first Select Series offering was the white-tired MOSH/TRIBUTE that sold out almost immediately.) The BASH/MTN build will number just 1050 units: 525 for the United States and 525 for Europe.
“Less is more,” said Aaron Frank, Brand Director at Serial 1. “That’s the promise of BASH/MTN. No fussy suspension to tune, no finicky drivetrain to adjust—just two wheels, one gear, and one purpose, to provide the most direct connection between you and the trail. The less you worry about managing and maintaining technology, the more you can focus on enjoying every ride.”
BASH/MTN takes the minimalism of the mega-popular MOSH/CTY and adapts it for off-road adventure with grippy, high-volume Michelin E-Wild knobby tires, a shock-absorbing SR Suntour NCX suspension seat post, and extra-powerful, four-piston TRP hydraulic disc brakes. Everything you love about the MOSH/CTY is maintained—including the immediate feedback that only comes from a rigid frame and the instant acceleration that the
single-speed drivetrain delivers—all presented with the clean, uncluttered style that you have come to expect from Serial 1.
Under Yucca Tan paint with Gloss Graffiti graphics, BASH/MTN incorporates a maintenance-free Gates Carbon Drive belt, a mid-mounted Brose S Mag motor that makes 90Nm of knee-saving torque and integrated lighting. Like all 2023 Serial 1 eBikes, the BASH/MTN is compatible with the Serial 1 App, developed in partnership with Google Cloud to capture essential ride data and improve security and safety, so you can just enjoy every ride.

SERIAL 1 APP KEY FEATURES AND TECHNOLOGY
A premium eBike experience demands premium digital technology. That’s why we partnered with Google Cloud to design a mobile app worthy of the Serial 1 name. With app-controlled security features, genuine Google Maps turn-by-turn navigation, and real-time ride data gathered directly from the
eBike, the Serial 1 App serves as the perfect ride assistant for your Serial 1 eBike. And this is just the beginning; our access to Google Cloud analytics and business intelligence and integration with Google Cloud AI functionality will allow us to continually improve our mobile app solutions to deliver the best-possible eBike experience and ensure the highest level of data security as well.
In addition to cloud-enabled data management and integration, the Serial 1 app is further equipped with the most advanced connectivity hardware available to ensure the most reliable connection and the best possible user experience. Most eBike apps communicate solely via Bluetooth® wireless technology, which means critical features only function when in proximity to another Bluetooth-enabled device. Serial 1’s next-generation /CTY platform takes connectivity beyond Bluetooth technology by incorporating a sophisticated Internet of Things (IoT) device that enables connection via not only Bluetooth wireless technology but also using cellular data and/or GPS, to ensure that you can reliably access your bike even when it’s not within sight of you or anyone else. This best-in-category solution delivers reliable connectivity beyond what’s currently available in the eMobility market and is a fully future-proofed solution that is unlikely to be phased out over the life of the bike.
Integrated Digital Security with Pinpoint Accuracy: Security is top-of-mind for all eBike owners. With Serial 1’s Pinpoint Mode enabled, customers will have the ability to precisely track, monitor and digitally lock their Serial 1 eBike no matter where it is relative to them. In the event that movement is detected while the bike is digitally locked, the rider will receive a push notification with multiple security options that the owner can control via the Serial 1 app, including:
● The lights on the eBike will flash a warning pattern
● The electric pedal-assist functionality will be disabled
● The owner will be able to view the bike’s current location (or last known location, in the unlikely event that the bike goes completely offline)
Google Maps Route Planning & Turn-by-Turn Navigation: Integrating current Google Maps Turn-by-Turn navigation data, Serial 1 App users can conveniently plan the best bicycle-specific route directly inside the Serial 1 App. The map will provide you with the best possible route for traveling by bike—including local bike lanes, bike paths and bike trails. Once you’ve determined your route, Turn-by-Turn directions will be available to guide your ride and keep you on the right path utilizing the most accurate and reliable location services available.
Virtual Garage: Register, name and track your Serial 1 eBike all from the comfort of your own phone. Utilizing virtual garage, you can use your mobile device to view, connect to and monitor your Serial 1 eBike on-demand. For households that may have two or more Serial 1 eBikes in their actual garage, families can manage all of their bikes within one shared virtual garage.
Real-Time Ride Data Dashboard: From speed to efficiency, from distance to battery range, you will have every detail of your ride right at your fingertips. Here is a complete list of all the ride data available via the dashboard:
● Speed
● Ride duration
● Ride distance
● Range
● EV system power output
● Rider power output
● eBike efficiency (watt-hours per mile)
● Battery state-of-charge
● Eco indicator (an on-off light that indicates when you are riding in an efficient way)
● Assist mode indicator
● Front light status
Record My Ride: Each time you complete a ride using the Serial 1 App, you’ll receive a post-ride summary. Over time, you’ll be able to compare ride and performance data to learn more about your riding style and track your progress.
Automatic Service Reminders: Stay on top of any eBike maintenance needs with regular service notifications delivered via the Serial 1 App. Serial 1 eBikes were designed to be as close to maintenance free as possible. However, once you hit certain time or distance milestones, your Serial 1 App will send you push notifications when it’s time for regular maintenance checks or time to monitor any additional service functions related to the mechanical longevity of your Serial 1 eBike.
Integrated Device Charger: New this year, all Serial 1 /CTY bikes are equipped with an integrated USB-C charging cable located underneath the handlebar stem. Perfect for powering a mobile phone to run the Serial 1 app, this USB-C cable is capable of charging mobile devices up to 10W (depending upon mobile device).
SERIAL 1 EBICYCLE KEY FEATURES AND TECHNOLOGY
All Serial 1 eBicycles are designed and engineered at a dedicated facility located on the Harley-Davidson® campus in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, using the same principles and processes that guide electric motorcycle development. Mass centralization is key to confident handling and excellent vehicle
dynamics, and Serial 1 has gone to great lengths to design a bike with a very low center of gravity to provide agile and predictable handling across all riding situations. Serial 1 eBicycles are sleek and streamlined, with all wires and cables hidden inside the frame, integrated lighting front and rear, and
smooth, clean lines that deliver the same great style that consumers expect from Serial 1. Finally, by incorporating low-maintenance and easy-to-use technology like a Gates Carbon Drive belt system, an auto-shifting CVT transmission (on select models), and self-adjusting hydraulic brakes, we have created very fun and easy-to-use eBicycles that allow the rider to enjoy every ride without any distractions.
Aluminum Frame: Frames and forks are constructed from welded hydroformed aluminum to be light and rigid, with geometry designed to deliver:
● Nimble, agile handling across all riding situations
● Confident control and comfort on both urban bicycle paths and rural backroads.
Integrated Battery: The lithium-ion battery is integrated into the lower frame for sleek style and convenient removal for off-the-bike charging. It can also be charged on the bike through a charging port conveniently located on the lower frame.
Mid-Mounted Motor: The Brose mid-mounted motor produces 90Nm/66 ft. lb. torque, plenty of power assistance to provide a quick launch from a standing start and to give the rider the ability to conquer even the most challenging hills. Mid-mount placement near the crank lowers the center of
gravity and centralizes mass to optimize vehicle handling, while an electronic torque sensor automatically registers the pressure the rider applies to the pedals and instantly provides a commensurate amount of electric assistance. No throttle or other action is required—just pedal and go.
Four Ride Modes:
● Eco Mode for a gentle amount of assistance in flat-and-favorable conditions.
● Tour Mode for the optimal blend of assistance and battery economy under mixed riding conditions.
● Sport Mode for pronounced assistance away from corners or over rolling hills.
● Boost Mode for confronting a steep hill, a strong headwind, or any other condition requiring a sustained burst of power.
Walk Assist: A push-button “walk-assist” function located on the handlebar controls provides a low level of forward motion to help easily maneuver the eBicycle at walking speeds, especially if there is ever a need to push it up a hill.
Belt Drive: Gates Carbon Drive belt is smooth, quiet and maintenance free. It requires none of the frequent lubrication or adjustment of a chain-drive system. It never gets greasy or messy.
Auto-Shifting Transmission (on RUSH/CTY models only): Enviolo AUTOMATiQ intelligent automatic transmission is an electronically controlled CVT (Constantly Variable Transmission) rear hub that automatically and constantly adjusts the gear ratio to maintain the rider’s optimal, personalized pedaling cadence even as terrain or speed changes. Fully sealed and maintenance-free, it’s available on all RUSH/CTY models.
Handlebar Controls: Ergonomically arranged thumb-and-forefinger controls on all models allow the rider to turn the eBicycle on and off, change ride modes, switch the integrated headlight on and off, and engage walk-assist without lifting a hand off the handlebar.
Hydraulic Disc Brakes: eBike-specific front and rear hydraulic disc brakes utilize 203mm brake rotors designed to deliver confident braking performance in most riding conditions–essential for faster-moving eBicycles and all-weather commuting.
Internal Routing: Brake lines and electrical wiring are routed through the frame, promoting longer life and less maintenance through protection from the elements and clean, snag-free styling.
Integrated Lighting: A bright LED headlamp mounted on the handlebar stem illuminates the path ahead and can make the rider more conspicuous after dark. Bright combination LED tail and brake lights integrated into the frame dropouts are designed to make the bike more visible from the rear. A distinctive LED front signature light pays homage to the shape of the classic headtube badge on Harley-Davidson’s original bicycles from the teens and 1920s and illuminates whenever the eBicycle is powered up.
Intelligent Sizing: Frame geometry is optimized for each frame size to maintain a comfortable riding position and consistent handling across all sizes, regardless of rider height. The desired riding posture for the city bikes is upright to maximize comfort and awareness of the rider’s surroundings. Both the frame geometry and contact points were evaluated, to make sure that our size range is well suited to nearly every customer.
