Polestar has teamed up with a Swedish company Allebike on a new limited-edition bicycle.
Limited to just 100 examples, the Allebike Alpha Polestar edition will act as the new flagship in Polestar’s Additionals webshop. The hand-built mountain bike is crafted around a carbon-fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) frame which has been co-designed by Polestar and Allebike.
Craftsmanship is making a comeback. Introducing the Allebike Alpha Polestar Edition, a collaborative creation between premium bike manufacturer Allebike and Polestar, resulting in this bespoke, state-of-the-art downcountry bike. Learn more here: https://t.co/EQRR5QNIfd pic.twitter.com/WTrB1slU6D
An upright seating position means that the Alpha Polestar edition can be used for climbing, yet a slack head tube angle allows for confident descents too. All bikes come with internal cable routing and a wireless dropper post, allowing riders to quickly adjust the height of their saddle at the press of a button. Wireless gear shifting can be added as an optional extra, too.
Thomas Ingenlath, CEO of Polestar, said: “Attention to detail, design and technology is integral when we develop our cars. We created the Allebike Alpha Polestar edition in the same spirit. Together with the great team at Allebike, we have crafted the perfect mountain bike for those who appreciate both a great ride and great design.”
All bikes use Öhlins dampers with 130mm of travel at the front and 120mm at the rear. Each bike is completely hand-built by Allebike in Alingsås, less than an hour from Polestar’s headquarters in Gothenburg, Sweden.
Only two matte colours will be available – ‘Snow’ and ‘Space’ – while the dampers and details are finished in gold, just like aspects of the Performance Pack available for the Polestar 2 electric car.
The Allebike Alpha Polestar edition is available exclusively online and is priced from €9,500 (£8,037).

BRUSSELS (Reuters) -Belgian Foreign Minister and deputy premier Sophie Wilmes has resigned, the cabinet announced on Thursday, to take care of her husband, former Australian footballer Chris Stone, who has been diagnosed with brain cancer. Wilmes, who was Belgium's prime minister in 2019-20 and the first woman in that role, had already temporarily stepped down in April for the same reason, stating then that the situation would be re-evaluated during the summer. “My husband's illness will be a difficult battle that I want to fight alongside him and alongside our children," Wilmes said in the statement.

The New Zealand government on Thursday announced free masks and rapid antigen tests as it tries to stem the spread of COVID-19 and relieve pressure on the country's health system which is dealing with an influx of COVID and influenza patients. There has been a significant jump in the number of new COVID cases in New Zealand in the past couple of week and authorities are forecasting that this wave of Omicron might be worst than the first. "There's no question the combination of a spike in COVID-19 cases and hospitalisations, the worst flu season in recent memory and corresponding staff absences are putting health workers and the whole health system under extreme pressure," Ayesha Verrall, Minister for COVID-19 Response, said in a statement.
