Why we built it

A BIKE YOU FORGET IS ELECTRIC.

Most e-bikes ride like appliances: heavy, loud and obviously motorised. We spent three years taking weight out until the S1 felt like a good bike that happens to have a tailwind.

It is designed in Rotterdam and assembled in Portugal. Every frame is test-ridden by a person before it goes in a box.

ASK AWAY.

Do I need a licence or insurance?

No. The S1 assists up to 25 km/h as standard, which makes it a bicycle in the EU and UK. The 45 km/h mode is for private land.

How long does the battery last?

Around 1,000 full charges before it drops to 80% capacity. For most riders that is eight to ten years.

Can I ride it in the rain?

It is rated IP65. Ride through anything short of a river.

When will my bike arrive?

Pre-orders placed today ship in June. You pay a €100 deposit now and the rest when it leaves the factory.

GO.
