WHAT MADE ME INVEST IN A E-BIKE BUSINESS?
You might think that it was the hot weather that made E-biking here in South East Asia the only “enjoyable” sporting activity in the hot season, because of the breeze. It was actually my own experience I’ve collected in my home country Germany.
I discovered in 2011 during a first E-Bike tour down the Costa Brava in Spain, how valuable a E-Bike ride could be for my mind & body.
You still have to pedal, but with the help of a motor you will find that the ride becomes enjoyable and you can appreciate the surrounding areas much more. It was a key experience of my life time and I fell immediately in love with this kind of sport!
Back in Laos I’ve searched since then a way to bring this idea to this location, not just because I miss E-biking; but rather because I want to bring the same feeling I have to my customer.
Biking through the jungle without a motor a nearly impossible due to the intense heat and humidity, but also due to steep gradients and obstacles. Thanks to the fat tire & motor combination, you can bike to areas which would be difficult to reach even on foot would be difficult to reach.
