About us
We’re obsessed with cities. So are our bikes. Truly city-proof, they shrink long commutes, scare off bike thieves, and amplify your pedal power while making city journeys a pleasure.
We became the definitive city e-bike and, although we went through some issues in 2023, we’ve got new owners and a renewed focus. We’re re-engineering how we ride and we’re excited about the future. Join us and be part of our next chapter.
