Centauri SE is everything riders have loved about our perfectly balanced commuter bike and more. We added a new higher-capacity battery to boost the range up to 60 miles, a higher-torque motor to summit big hills in turbo mode, and improved rear wheel and accessory fittings. We also added more braking power, more durable tires, an easier-to-use display, and integrated lighting.
So what did we keep? It still has 28mph top pedal-assist speed, the amazing Enviolo internal rear hub transmission, our custom geometry for great handling, and of course the silent and maintenance-free Gates CDX belt drive.

Find your perfect fit
We recommend you compare your inseam measurement, taken wearing shoes you are likely to ride in, to the stand-over height of our various models. As long as you've got around 1" of clearance over the top tube you'll likely be good to go! If you're on the cusp between sizes we generally recommend sizing up!
