Area 13 "Bolton" BlackBird
$1,699.00 - $2,298.00
NEW! Optional Mountain Bike Wheelset for 26" Bikes!
We're now offering a narrower wheelset for the Large blackbird. This option sets the bike up with 27.5" x 2.1" Maxxis tires on lightweight rims. This removes over 5lbs of weight from the bike, making for a lighter, more maneuverable ride!
The Large frame size can also come with both wheelsets for an additional fee. The 2nd wheelset includes:
27.5" rear wheel with Bafang Hub Motor
Front 27.5" wheel
Pair of 27.5" tubes
Pair of 27.5" x 2.1" Maxxis Tires
The 2nd wheelset does NOT include a 9 speed SRAM cassette or 203mm rotors. These can be transferred from the installed fat wheels, or purchased separately if you'd like 2 complete sets.
"Bolton" Blowout! We're clearing out all bikes with the Bolton label to make room for "Area 13" bikes.

The Blackbird (bb) is a beast. I am 275 pounds and it flys with me on it. I can ride for 2 or more hours on level 1 and I’m not totally wiped out. Despite being 70 pounds, the bb is nimble and Agile. The front fork assembly is adjusted to perfection and is predictable. I’m very glad that I bought this model from this company. I have had a few minor problems, I was guided through troubleshooting by the excellent, knowledgeable folks that work there. We were able to resolve the issue the first time. I’ve had the bike back to Bolton one time and it was there for a week. After getting it back, my issue was fixed correctly and still is fixed. I needed replacement parts. I was sent detailed instructions on how to remove the parts. Then I photographed them and emailed them to Bolton customer service. I was shipped new parts immediately and my issue was resolved. This is a mass produced bike with a home-built feel and it’s obvious that many hours went into choosing components like brakes, electronic parts and drivetrain. There is so much adjustability in the handle bars that you can set this bike up in a variety of ways depending on what you are into. In just 3 months I’ve put 420 miles on the clock. My unsolicited advice is: After 10-15 miles of riding after receipt of this bike, sit down and tighten absolutely every nut and bolt on it. Some of my issues were because of loose bolts or nuts. Enjoy, Jim
