About Magnum
Jesse Lapin and Yoni Kayman founded Magnum Bikes in 2010 in Salt Lake City, Utah. The company built its first generation of e-bikes around hub-motor commuter platforms aimed at urban riders and short-range errands, and grew from a single Utah storefront into a national e-bike brand.
Magnum operates retail flagships in Salt Lake City, Park City, and St. George, plus stores in Arizona and Florida. In 2024 the brand partnered with Costco to distribute models across 300 US warehouse locations, bringing its e-bikes to a much broader audience than its independent-bike-dealer roots.
The current lineup is e-bike-only and built around step-thru and step-over urban platforms in the $1,700 to $2,100 range. The flagship Peak 2.0 is a UL 2849-certified trail e-bike with a 140 mm suspension fork and frame-integrated color display, and the Cosmo, Melody, Bliss, Edge, and Wave platforms cover commuter and comfort cruisers across both standard and low-step frames. The folding Premium 3 Torque LS rounds out the catalog.
Most popular Magnum models
Magnum is an e-bike-only brand, with every model running on a hub-drive or mid-drive system tuned for short-range urban commuting. Most of the lineup sits in the $1,700 to $2,100 range with integrated batteries, 48V power systems, and step-thru or step-over frames in the same family.
The Peak 2.0 is Magnum’s most capable model — a UL 2849-certified electric trail bike with a 140 mm suspension fork, torque-to-cadence switching, and a frame-integrated color display. The Cosmo 2.0 and Cosmo 2.0 T are the entry urban platforms, the Melody and Bliss are comfort step-thrus, the Edge is the commuter flagship with rack and lights, and the Wave brings a low-step cruiser geometry to the same Cosmo battery platform. The folding Premium 3 Torque LS is the only non-conventional frame format. For Magnum’s full-suspension trail e-bike in particular, stand-alone mountain bike insurance from Velosurance covers crash, theft, and shuttle-transit damage that a homeowner’s policy will not.

Magnum's Warranty: What It Covers and Where It Stops
Magnum Bikes covers its e-bikes against manufacturing defects in a short list of essential components. Five terms decide what that is worth to you.
One or two years, depending on the model
Model Year 2026 and select updated models (Wave, Bliss, Edge, Melody, Peak 2.0, Pathfinder) carry a 2-year limited warranty. All other new Magnum e-bike models carry a 1-year limited warranty.
Five essential components are covered
The warranty covers manufacturing defects in the bicycle frame, display console, electric motor, motor controller, and battery pack. Repair or replacement is at Magnum Bikes' sole discretion, and suspension forks fall under third-party manufacturer policies where applicable.
Register within 90 days to activate coverage
You must register your bike within 90 days of purchase to activate coverage. Claims go through an online form with your proof of purchase and photo or video evidence.
Parts are free, labor may not be
Replacement parts are free of charge for verified defective covered components during the warranty period. Labor fees for diagnostics, repair, or part installation may be the owner's responsibility, and repairs by unauthorized third parties void coverage.
Defects only: crash damage is excluded
The warranty covers manufacturing defects, and its exclusions list names crashes under misuse and external damage. Those are the losses a Velosurance policy is built for.
Summary of the Magnum Bikes Warranty Coverage, reviewed September 17, 2026. Applies to new Magnum e-bikes registered within 90 days of purchase. Certified Pre-Owned e-bikes get a 6-month warranty. The manufacturer decides every warranty claim, and its full published terms govern.
