The Future Of Motorcycles Is All-Electric: The Startup On The Cutting Edge Of Electric Cycle Technology

The rise of electric cars has turned the once untouchable internal combustion engine (ICE) market upside down. The increasing trend of electrification is undeniable, and one startup, Civilized Cycles, is sparing no expense when it comes to making the most luxurious electric motorcycles on the market.  The startup recently launched on Wefunder, which means anyone can invest in Civilized Cycles for a limited time.

Civilized Cycles aims to design an electric bike that can "do what cars do for them today." With self-leveling pneumatic rear suspension and a bike built for two, and cargo, the technology aims to replace the average employee’s daily commuter. Their flagship product, the Model 1, touts itself as the "world's most versatile, comfortable, and stylish e-bike."

The startup aims to take on the $43.32 billion electric bike market. With projections for the e-bike industry to hit a staggering $119 billion in the next seven years, capturing even a small fraction of the market could result in substantial revenue for the startup. With over 110% revenue growth year-over-year, the startup is already continuing to ramp up to capture this growth. The company has already sold over $150,000 worth of bikes and sold at more than 10 retailers across the United States.

To help continue to grow its market share, the company recently launched on Wefunder, meaning anyone can invest for a limited time. The company was founded by Zachary Schieffelin, a serial entrepreneur who started and grew Vespa Soho into the largest volume US Vespa dealer.

The bike is protected by nine patents for an automatic e-bike transmission, its patented cargo containers, automatic and air suspension systems, and location-based performance control patents. While many options on the market have none of these, Civilzied Cycles looks to combine these elements and more into a micro-mobility solution built to be top-of-the-line.
