These electric rides aren’t for lazy days on the trail. They’re shred-happy tools made to trek farther than two legs can handle.

1. Riese & Müller Delite Mountain

Best for: ­Long-haulin’ rough riders

This bike’s genius is its dual-battery option. It comes with one 500-watt-hour lithium-ion unit; add another ($769) and the range stretches to 100 miles. The 250-watt Bosch Performance CX motor has four levels of assist, all accessed from a handlebar-mounted control. Road-friendly options like a luggage rack make it equally suited for bombing the urban jungle. | $6,149

2. Specialized Women’s Turbo Levo FSR Comp 6Fattie

Best for: ­Power-mad single-trackers

Specialized’s dirt-first e-whip is fitted with a generous suspension (the shock has 140 mm of travel) and higher-volume tires for extra traction. The 250-watt Brose motor has three settings (Turbo, Trail, and Eco) that you can fine-tune using an app. Don’t worry, guys, there’s a men’s model too. | $5,500
