French manufacturer Moustache Bikes has unveiled a reworked version of the Lundi 27, the electric city bike that has long served as the flagship of its urban range. The French brand says the update marks the most significant overhaul the model has seen since launch, with a fresh frame platform, revised geometry and a tidier overall look.
According to Moustache, the priorities behind the redesign were comfort, safety and simplicity for everyday riders navigating busy streets. The company points to changes in how the frame is manufactured, allowing for cleaner cable routing and a less cluttered cockpit, while retaining the practical mudguards, lighting and rack mounts expected of a serious commuter machine.
Moustache has built its reputation in the UK and across Europe on well-equipped, no-nonsense electric bikes aimed squarely at daily transport rather than weekend leisure riding, and the Lundi 27 has been central to that positioning since it first appeared. The refreshed range is expected to arrive at UK dealers in the coming months, continuing the brand’s steady expansion beyond its French home market.
For readers who mainly follow racing, an urban e-bike launch might seem a world away from criteriums and time trials, but it’s a reminder of how much of the wider cycling industry’s investment now flows into commuting and utility machines rather than performance bikes. That matters for the sport indirectly: strong sales of practical e-bikes help fund the dealer networks, sponsorship budgets and component development that eventually filter down to road, gravel and track riders alike.
