About MATE.
We created MATE to get more people on the bikes. And because we thought the world needed an eBike that actually looks cool.
MATE is not only extremely practical and packed with smart features, it’s also so much fun to ride.
The MATE eBike is a foldable electric bike that is a dream to ride. With front and rear suspension, a set of 2 disc brakes and an ultra comfortable saddle, MATE takes you from A to B in comfort and style.
The 3-Step Folding system means you can take it with you anywhere: in a bus or train for faster commuting, the trunk of your car for longer road trips or even pack it under the stairs for easier storage.
We designed MATE with versatility in mind. Of course you can ride it as a normal bike with the 7 speed Shimano gears. But the real joy comes from the 350kw electric hub motor (MATE S).
As you cruise through your neighbourhood at up to 20 mph / 35 km/h without even breaking a sweat, you’ll be convinced. And with up to 55 miles / 80 km on just a single charge, MATE takes you further and makes your commute a breeze.
We’ve also included an easy-access USB charger so you can keep your devices charged up as you ride.
