Red Kite Cycles

Motorhomes + electric bikes - a winning combination! ⚡🚲🚐

These two Trek Marlin + hardtail e-mountain bikes will even out the abilities of husband and wife, so they can ride together on holiday at their own pace, using different levels of pedal assist.

Just in time for the bank holiday weekend too. Happy riding, both!

Loading up a customer's motorhome with two adventure-ready, full suspension electric mountain bikes 🗻 🚴🚴 🗻

These new generation Powerfly FS+ 6 have plush FOX suspension both rear and front to smooth out rough trails and a quiet and pokey Bosch Performance Line CX motor for a natural feeling boosted ride.

All ready for a long tour of Spain this autumn. We're not jealous!

2026 Trek Marlin 5 is now available at Red Kite Cycles, and looking buff in store!

The Marlin has been a firm favourite with our customers over the years … and one that gets subtle upgrades and improvements year upon year. This year we welcome an upgraded Shimano braking system to the Marlin 5.

And we are fans of this dark matte blue finish - it’s set off well by the gold graphics and the tan-walled tyres.

Fantastic to see the Belles rides still going strong! 🚴🏼‍♀️🚴🏼‍♀️🚴🏼‍♀️

And the pooch comes along for the ride! 🐶 🚲 ❤

Thanks to our customer Gillian for sharing this fab photo of her dog looking comfy in the basket of her MiRiDER 20 electric folding bike.

We're always happy to advise on the best way to carry four-legged friends on your bike!

It was a total pleasure to hand over this candy red Bullfinch V6 to its new owner last weekend.
Darren chose to use groupset components from his previous bike to save funds and create this with us. It has 40mm Schwalbe gravel tyres on super wide carbon rims … all set to live a life mixing rough roads and light gravel on the Isle of Wight.
Come see us to find out how you can get across a UK manufactured beautiful all-rounder.

Best of luck to Aishlin (pictured centre in red jersey) and team. They're cycling a special 'in memory' London to Paris ride this August to honour their friend Joe.🚴 ❤🚴

It's New Bike Day for Anna picking up her shiny new Diamant Mahon 💎

🇩🇪One for the fact fans: Diamant is Germany's oldest bike manufacturer and is also part of the Trek bike family.

The Mahon Style Pro is a versatile commuter, with a maintenance free belt drive system and an integrated rack that can carry up to 25k of luggage.

Perfect for Anna's commuting plans, and for touring, if she can persuade her daughter to come too! Happy riding, Anna 🚴

Red Kite's Duncan has bagged the Bonette! ⛰

Our workshop co-ordinator has had his eyes on the Cime de la Bonette in the French Alps for a while and today he smashed his goal. He started his morning at sea level and climbed the demanding route to the 2,860 metre summit, the highest point that the Tour has ever reached in its history.

Then a well-deserved baguette tour on the descent. 🥖🥖🚴
Chapeau, Duncan! 🎩
