Rivian G1 is a concept electric gravel bike that extends Rivian’s adventurous spirit from vehicles to personal mobility. Designed for the modern explorer, G1 bridges the gap between road efficiency and off-road freedom — blending the brand’s rugged identity with intelligent functionality.
Background
Rivian connects people from urban life to the wilderness through electric adventure. Yet between the road and the trail lies an untapped space — biking. That’s where Rivian G1 continues the journey.
What kind of bike fits rivian?
Gravel strikes the balance between road speed and off-road capability — the same space Rivian occupies. It’s the category that best reflects Rivian’s blend of versatility and adventure.
Mountain Bike
- Strong off-road capability
- Suitable for extreme terrain
Gravel Bike
- As 90% Fast as Road Bike
- Light-off road capability
Road Bike
- Fastest, efficient
- Suitable for long-distance touring
Most e-gravel bikes simply thicken a gravel frame to fit a motor and battery, rather than redesigning the form around electric integration. This leaves space for a cleaner, purpose-built approach — one that looks truly designed, not retrofitted.
