It’s easy to see why electric bikes have become so popular in recent years. The electric pedal assist makes riding for fitness much more enjoyable. Lightweight models with a larger range could easily replace a commuter’s car, and they are just fun to cruise around on. Gift givers and anyone else considering an upgrade to their outdated bike should be aware that many of the best electric bike brands have impressive early Black Friday sales this year. You don’t want to miss out on adopting an awesome and surprisingly affordable new ride while you can.

Black Friday is always the day after Thanksgiving, and the biggest shopping day of 2024 falls on November 29th. Although many sales are likely to begin when the clock strikes midnight on the 29th and end on the 30th, expect some brands to extend their discounts through the weekend and into the following Cyber Monday. In addition, pre-Black Friday sales are going on throughout November.
Although many highly acclaimed electric bike brands have released their Black Friday deals far ahead of Thanksgiving, I expect most of these early bird deals to hang around until the 29th, with additional limited-time sales to pop up on Black Friday itself.
Deep discounts of several hundred to several thousand dollars will be commonplace on manufacturer websites offering Black Friday sales on many popular e-bikes. Savvy shoppers should look for additional bonuses, such as promotion codes awarded for signing up for a brand’s mailing list or bonus accessory bundles included with certain e-bike purchases.
The electric bike sales of Black Friday 2023 are comparable to this year’s deals, as premium e-bike brands such as Priority Bicycles, Specialized Bikes, Aventon Bikes, and others served up sizable discounts on a range of e-bikes and included bonus accessories for holiday shoppers.
It’s easy to get overwhelmed due to the sheer number of electric bike sales this Black Friday. I highly recommend learning about e-bikes and the styles that may best suit your riding needs ahead of time so you aren’t stuck comparing models while others are quickly snapping up e-bikes.
If there is a specific e-bike model or brand you’re interested in, consider signing up for their email list soon for early notices of upcoming sales events delivered straight to your inbox, as well as money-saving promo codes for additional savings. Although the best e-bike deals are generally found on their official online shops, it’s still worth shopping around just in case a major retailer or smaller bike shop has an extra-special sale. If you find a surprisingly good sale on something you like, don’t wait—you may be surprised at how quickly certain colors, sizes, and e-bike variations sell out quickly!
No matter how great those Black Friday sales are, it’s a good idea to consider what you need from an e-bike before you buy. For example, if you need an electric bike to get to and from work, look for models with a maximum range that easily covers your commute. As with regular bicycles, e-bikes are often sold in multiple sizes and different frame styles, so please refer to the notes on the seller’s website to better understand which e-bikes may be best suited for you and your body type. One note: The Consumer Product Safety Commission does not recommend e-bikes for kids under the age of 13, and even then, do your research before purchasing an e-bike for young teens.
Anyone searching for an e-bike capable of soaring over rough terrain and trails will want a model with a premium suspension system and shock-absorbing fat tires. If you’re still not sure what’s best for you, I recommend reading through my top picks of this year’s best electric commuter bikes for additional information.
Although there will probably be Black Friday deals on e-bikes on some of the bigger retail websites like Best Buy and Amazon, the best places to buy electric bikes are directly from their respective manufacturers.
You might be surprised at the much bigger selection of colors, sizes, and accessory bundles you can choose from when you purchase straight from an e-bike brand, and many of the best electric bike companies are offering huge discounts across the board, too. In a nutshell, research the best e-bikes out there, determine what kind of electric bike would be the best fit for you and your riding needs, and visit the brand’s official website for the best Black Friday deal to see how much you may be able to save.
