WASHINGTON CROSSING, PA — Voltage Bikes will celebrate its grand opening on Saturday, Nov. 2 from 12 to 5 p.m. at 1077 River Road next to the Washington Crossing Post Office.
The store, which bills itself as an ebike boutique shop, carries a full line of high-quality electric bikes for commuting, exploring, and everything in between.
"At Voltage Bikes, we’re passionate about our ebikes and the positive impact that they can have on our community. Whether you’re new to the world of ebikes or a seasoned pro, we’re here to provide you with the guidance you need to make the right choice for you," said the husband and wife owners, Mary Mazza and Chris Arndt.
The store is an exclusive showcase dealer for Velotric, one of the largest ebike companies in the world. Only three stores across the company have the showcase designation, which is a pretty big deal, said Arndt.
Showcase dealers carry "every bike, every color and every size" the company makes. In addition, they stock every part for every bike. They are also authorized to conduct warranty work without calling it in.

"We also get the new bikes first," said Mazza. "We were one of the first stores to get the Summit, which is their new mountain bike. And we were the first store in the country to sell one."
