Black Friday Deals: MEC is selling a $4,000 e-bike for an astounding $400, sort of

Mountain Equipment Company is launching an exclusive Black Friday deal that offers an incredible opportunity for outdoor enthusiasts. Shoppers who spend $1,200 on outdoor gear will be able to purchase a $4,000 MEC 407 E-Bike for just $400, while supplies last.

This promotion is part of MEC’s annual Black Friday event, which promises a range of special offers on outdoor equipment and apparel. The e-bike deal, however, stands out as one of the most significant of the season. Customers can snag the MEC 407 E-Bike, a high-quality e-bike, at a fraction of its retail price when they meet the minimum purchase requirement of $1,200 in outdoor gear.

The event will be held in MEC stores across Canada, excluding those in Hudson’s Bay locations. Due to the limited stock of e-bikes, the offer is available in-store only and is subject to availability. Shoppers are encouraged to arrive early for a chance to grab the e-bike, as the promotion is expected to draw significant demand.

The MEC 407 Step-Through E-Bike is designed for urban cycling and commuting, offering a smooth and efficient ride with the help of a Shimano Steps E5000 drive unit. The bike features a lightweight 6061 aluminum frame with a low step-through design, making it easy to mount and dismount. It is equipped with a 504Wh lithium-ion battery, providing a range that varies depending on factors like terrain, wind, and riding style, with an expected range of 25 to 150 km on a single charge. The Shimano Cues 9-speed drivetrain ensures reliable shifting, while the SR Suntour front suspension fork smooths out rough roads, making it ideal for urban environments or gravel paths.

In addition to the e-bike offer, MEC will feature a range of other discounts, including up to 40% off select tents, like the Big Agnes Tiger Wall 3-person tent, and 50% off snow gear such as Fischer Nordic boots and skis. These deals are part of MEC’s larger Black Friday and holiday promotions, which will see new discounts released daily throughout the holiday season.

MEC’s Black Friday event is expected to be one of its largest of the year, and with limited quantities, shoppers are advised to act quickly.
