Portability

One of the first questions we are asked when riding around town is "What happens when you run out of power?" The answer is simple: “You can fold the YikeBike up and catch a taxi or public transport and continue on”. Easy. You can take it everywhere you need to go, never have to worry about leaving it out of your sight, and no more bike locks!

Dressed

Changing from your sweaty lycra when you get to work will be a thing of the past as the YikeBike lets you arrive at work in your normal work gear with no huffing and puffing. Also a handy side effect you'll never tuck your trousers into your socks again.

Visibility

The YikeBike lights are on all the time when riding around town and are visible from hundred of meters away, making others more aware of your presence, speed and direction when riding. Turning signals, rear lights and hazard light functions are included.

Presence

There’s no hiding it! The YikeBike sound is unique! And we love it. Have you ever ridden your bicycle around town and passed a parked car and encountered an inconsiderate driver who opens their door on you? Driving around on a YikeBike you often notice that people hear you coming before they see you, inherently increasing your road presence.

Usability

Ever have to pick up your car across town and you're running late? Need to get to a meeting where you know there is a lack of parking? Ever found yourself needing to get to that train or boat and needing to rely on that bus that gets stuck in rush hour traffic? Having a YikeBike makes getting to all meetings and public transport something you will never have to worry about.

Inspiration

The first thing you notice when riding the YikeBike is that people will be intrigued and will ask you lots of questions about the YikeBike. It is a great conversation starter and when you fold your YikeBike up in front of them their jaws will drop and suddenly the YikeBike's design makes sense, showing of its portability, usability and all round coolness.

Reliability

The YikeBike is built to last! Quality is paramount and our engineering team test the bike constantly for toughness and reliability. The test facility at YikeBike Headquarters has simulated over 15,000km of riding by a 120kg YikeBiker riding over bumpy terrain and accelerating to full speed and braking to a full stop on a specially made treadmill, simulating years of actual use.

Easy

The YikeBike is different and the perception of some when they first see it may be that it looks hard to ride. While it is true that it is different and it’s design is unique it is remarkably easy to learn how to ride it. A few minutes in an open space will see you riding it with confidence, and loving the thrill of zooming along like you are floating on air.

Global Delivery

The YikeBike folds into such a small package that it can be sent straight to your front door, anywhere in the world, usually within one week.

Inherently Stable

The YikeBike has been designed to be ridden at speed without having to worry about bumps and potholes. The larger 20” front wheel can safely drive over most bumps and through most potholes, and the rear wheel easily follows.
