A wise person once said, trends come and go, but an Electra is forever. Okay, maybe that’s just us, but regardless, keeping up with the latest trends can be a full-time job. Lucky for you, we’ve been paying attention and with the addition of a few accessories, your two-wheeled ride can get in on the latest looks hitting the runway and beyond. This winter season, it’s your choice of which direction to go: color blocking, green vibes, or leather collections. Which will it be? 

Color blocking is a simple, yet elegant look that will make you a standout in the bike lane. To achieve this look, take two or three bold, maybe even contradictory, colors and put them together into one ensemble. Popular combinations include mixing warm shades, like orange and pink, or sticking with those cooler tones, such as green and blue. Being bold, elegant, and a standout is all in the Electra DNA. 

How can you dress a bike with color blocking in mind? Let’s take a Townie Go! 7D. With seven distinct colors to choose from, you shouldn’t have a problem finding one to match your style. Next up, baskets. Grab a Honeycomb Front QR, Low Profile Rear MIK, or Pannier Basket and let your vision come to life. This collection comes in a variety of bold colors that will complement your look.  Looking for another layer of color? Grab an Electra Lifestyle Helmet to round out your ensemble and you will be ready to hit the town.  

A multi-color look might not be in everyone’s wheelhouse. Some like a simple color scheme for their lives. This winter, give green a chance. From the Grinch to Christmas trees, there’s lots of green floating around this holiday season. Electra is ready for this new color trend with our classic Cruiser 1 Step-Thru in a radiant Spring Green. Pair this with a Slime Lifestyle Helmet and Twister Bell to complete the look. 

50’s nostalgia must be in the air. With slick back hair and leather jackets appearing in every coffee house, we are either in a real-life version of the movie Grease, or leather is making a comeback. BThe bottom line, this trend is in perfect alignment with the new Classic Faux Leather collection which includes a Saddle, Handlebar Bag, Grips and Bike Carry Handle in both black and brown. You won’t be rolling into the sunset like Danny and Sandy in a Bel Air, but you will be a style icon amongst your friends.
