Electric enduro bikes are built to climb so the rider can descend again and again. This illustrative e-MTB comes with a 625 Wh or 750 Wh battery and is shown in four of its six colours, with the build sent as a quote request.
Battery size is the decision that shapes everything else. The larger pack means longer days and more laps, or more support on the steepest climbs. The smaller one keeps weight down, which riders feel when the bike is moving around beneath them on technical descents, or being lifted onto a rack at the end of the day. Buyers are working out how they ride, not just how far.

What you can configure
There are four frame colours to try, matte black, desert sand, forest green and slate blue, photographed so the motor housing and rear linkage stay in place. The battery choice appears in the summary. In this demo it does not change the picture; a production build would add weight and range guidance for each pack, because that is what the buyer is really comparing.

Why a configurator suits e-bikes
Batteries complicate e-bike retail in ways that paint does not. They are often the most expensive single component, they have their own stock levels and lead times, and lithium packs carry shipping restrictions that affect delivery options. A configurator that treats battery as a structured option can apply those rules automatically, offering only the delivery or collection methods that suit the chosen pack.
Battery supply does not always follow frame supply, so availability needs to be shown per combination. A rider who settles on desert sand with the larger pack should see an honest date before paying, not after. Where one battery is short, the configurator can suggest the same colour with the other pack, or a different colour that is ready now.
The battery choice is also a range conversation, and it has to be handled honestly. Range depends on rider weight, terrain, temperature and assist mode. A range guide built on the brand's own figures, with its assumptions stated, sets realistic expectations and reduces complaints after the first big day out.
How a production version would be built
Paint is a straightforward image swap, with one photograph or render per colour from a fixed angle. The battery needs data rather than imagery: capacity, weight, charger compatibility, range guidance from the brand, and stock and lead time for each pack. Shipping rules for lithium batteries belong in the configurator's logic, so delivery options always match what the courier will accept. The finished build can go to a Shopify or WooCommerce basket, a quote, or a dealer who sets the bike up, with the battery recorded as its own field for warranty purposes.
Build sheet for this range
- Colours in the full range: 6 (4 shown in this demo)
- Battery choices: 2
- Combinations to support: 6 × 2 = 12
- Images for one photograph per combination at 3 angles: 36
- Images if batteries can be shown as separate layers, at 3 angles: 24
- Data each of the 12 combinations needs: a SKU or variant ID, price, stock or lead time, and any dimensions or specification that change
Questions about e-bike configurators
Can the configurator show estimated range for each battery?
Yes, as guidance rather than a promise. A range estimator can take rider weight, terrain and assist mode and return a range band using your own test figures, with its assumptions stated plainly. I would not invent a formula; the numbers need to come from the brand or the motor manufacturer.
How do we handle shipping rules for larger batteries?
By putting them in the product data. Each battery option carries its shipping class, so the configurator only offers delivery methods your courier permits for that pack, or switches to collection or dealer delivery. That stops the site accepting an order you cannot actually send.
Can riders add a spare battery or range extender?
If your range includes one, yes. It appears as an optional add-on after the main battery choice, with compatibility checked against the frame and motor. Riders planning long days without a charging point often want this, and offering it during configuration beats a separate product page they may never find.
Is an image-based configurator enough for an e-bike, or should it be 3D?
For one model with paint and battery options, images are usually enough, because the battery change is not visible. 3D becomes worthwhile across a range with many visible options, such as wheels, components and accessories. My bike configurator page compares the two approaches for cycling brands.
