Engineered by Carbon Experts. Endorsed by Champions.

Performance, quality, and innovation — these are the standards elite athletes live by. From the NBA hardwood to WNBA championship courts, professional players know that the tools they choose must deliver reliability, speed, and comfort. That’s exactly why NBA and WNBA champions are choosing Urtopia as their ride of choice.

With aerospace-grade carbon fiber frames, ultra-lightweight builds, and pioneering smart technology, Urtopia e-bikes meet the same uncompromising standards athletes expect in their sport. Whether it’s powering through long distances, riding with ease after years of strain, or simply enjoying a smooth cruise in the city, Urtopia is engineered for champions.

Mike Miller — 2× NBA Champion

Mike Miller spent years knocking down clutch three-pointers in the NBA. These days, his idea of winning looks a little different — long rides, open roads, and time outdoors.

“I’ve spent my life chasing greatness… now I chase the horizon,”
Mike says.

He rides the Urtopia Fusion Pro, our most powerful e-bike. With a 1000W peak motor and a range of up to 240 km, it’s built for distance and strength — perfect for a guy who knows all about endurance.

“When you’ve won at the highest level, you know what quality feels like,” he explains. “This thing? Full carbon fiber — light, strong, fast. Same material elite athletes trust, now on two wheels. It handles it all — city, trail, wherever I feel like riding. Built for distance. Built for power.”

For Mike, it’s not about training anymore. It’s about having fun, staying active, and knowing he can count on his bike, wherever the road takes him.

Theresa Plaisance — WNBA Champion

After years of battling in the paint, Theresa Plaisance knows the wear and tear basketball puts on your body. So when she looked for an e-bike, comfort came first.

“After years on the court, I know what works… and what just gets in the way,”
she says.

That’s why she rides the Carbon 1 Step-Thru (ST). With its upright riding position and step-thru frame, it’s easy on her back and knees, while still light and quick.

“This step-through Carbon Classic ST? My back and knees thank me every time,” Theresa laughs. “Lightweight. Comfortable. Built for real movement.”

But what really surprised her was the smart side of the bike. Built-in GPS anti-theft, navigation, and even voice control mean she never has to worry about getting lost or leaving her bike parked in the city.

“Champions don’t settle. We choose better. We choose Urtopia.”

Sydney Colson — 2× WNBA Champion

Sydney Colson brings the same energy off the court as she does on it. For her, the Carbon 1 ST is all about convenience and joy.

“Light, smooth, and built for real life,” Sydney says. “That’s my kind of ride.”

She loves how the Carbon 1 ST makes daily rides easy. Whether it’s cruising down neighborhood streets, heading into the city, or just enjoying a sunny afternoon, the bike feels stable, stylish, and fun. And with the same smart features Theresa loves — anti-theft protection, navigation, connectivity — Sydney knows she’s covered.

For her, it’s not just a bike. It’s a way to move through her day with freedom and confidence.

Why They All Chose Urtopia

Mike, Theresa, and Sydney all picked Urtopia, but for different reasons:

  • Mike Miller wanted power and range — and found it in the Fusion Pro.
  • Theresa Plaisance needed comfort and support, plus smart features to make life easier — and chose the Carbon 1 ST.
  • Sydney Colson looked for something smooth, fun, and practical — and also went with the Carbon 1 ST.

What unites them? Carbon fiber frames, lightweight builds, and smart tech that makes every ride better.
