Pashley Pathfinder E – Touring E-Bike

A beautifully engineered British e-bike that blends traditional craftsmanship with discreet, modern electric assistance.

About this bike

The Pathfinder E takes Pashley’s most versatile platform and adds a seamlessly integrated electric system, designed to enhance rather than dominate the ride.

Handbuilt in England using Reynolds steel, it delivers a smooth, responsive feel with subtle assistance when you need it — helping you ride further, climb more easily and enjoy longer journeys without losing the character of a traditional bicycle.

What sets it apart

• Handbuilt in England
• Lightweight Reynolds steel frame
• Mahle X30 rear hub motor (quiet, discreet)
• Integrated battery hidden within the frame
• Exceptionally clean, non “e-bike” aesthetic
• Built for both city and countryside riding

Why we like it

It’s light, refined and incredibly versatile. The kind of bike you’ll ride more often because it removes just enough effort without taking over the experience.
