Bolt · Mini Velo

Light, nimble,
delightful.

Built for park rides, cafe hops, neighbourhood errands, and the kind of city riding where a compact bike just makes sense.

Frame and fork

Classic lines, modern construction.

Bolt uses double-butted Aluminium 6066 tubes chosen to reduce weight while keeping the strength needed for everyday riding. Each tube is cut and smoothly welded for a cleaner finish.

The bespoke carbon fork adds front-end stiffness and versatility while helping smooth out bumps on city roads.

Built to order

Every Bolt is assembled for its rider in the Singapore workshop.

Instead of pumping out identical bikes, Ascent builds each Bolt to order so the final bike can match how and where it will be ridden.
