This page is provided for reference to historical product information.

Poetry in motion, the Electra Verse 21D bike offers grace, style and smooth riding efficiency to compliment whatever type of ride your whim takes you upon.

  • Aluminum frame features internal cable routing for clean lines and protection from road grime; eyelets for fenders and a rear rack (sold separately) enhance utility
  • A sweeping top tube mimics a step-through design for easy mounting and dismounting
  • Shimano trigger shifters control the Shimano derailleurs for easy, precise shifts between the 21 gear combinations, letting you pedal with ease
  • Road-style dual-pivot caliper brakes ensure speed management is easy and effective
  • Mixed Tread tires supply great versatility, providing smooth-rolling performance on roads, paths and hardpacked gravel
  • Convenient platform pedals do not require special shoes
  • Specs on the Electra Verse 21D bike are subject to change

Fitting an Electra bike is easy. Start by setting the saddle to its lowest position and then stand over it with both feet flat on the ground. Next, simply raise the saddle until it rests in the crotch. Tighten it in place, and that's it— you're done! After an initial break-in period you might notice your bicycle performing less responsively than the day you brought it home. Not to worry, this is typical of all new bicycles and simply reflects that cables have stretched or their housings have seated themselves into final position. To keep running at peak performance, all REI bicycles come with a FREE warranty tune-up, which should be accomplished between the first 100-200 miles of riding or after the first two months if you're accumulating miles less quickly. Contact your nearest REI bike shop for details and an appointment for this important service.

Imported.

      Comments about Electra Verse 21D Bike - 2013:

      When used with a Topeak Explorer MTX Tubular Rack, unable to use a Topeak basket because of seat interference. With this rack, only option is saddle bags. Other than this minor complaint, an excellent bike for the money.

      I use my Electra Verse for exercise and fitness.
      This bike is extremely comfortable and fun to ride.
      Though not a big deal, the bike is heavy.
