for Cities

Shared e-bikes cost too much. Let's fix that.

Manual charging labor is by far the biggest cost driving up the prices of e-bike programs – both for cities setting up the programs, and residents renting the e-bikes.

The problem

Why is it $8.50 to ride an e-bike across town?

It boils down to two major reasons.

1. Infrastructure costs

Buying & installing docks costs too much.

(for docked programs)
Cities buy docks that were designed 10+ years ago, and drastically over-engineered. When asked to guess how much they cost, most people underestimate by a factor of 10 or more.

2. Charging costs

Vehicles must be manually charged.

(for docked + dockless)
Vehicles are either free-floating, or have docks that do not actually charge the vehicles (a common misconception). The result: a huge team of people driving around big internal combustion trucks, manually swapping the batteries of every single vehicle.

ChargeLock is a low-cost way to eliminate manual charging.

It's simple, easy to install, and the vehicles are entirely self-charging. You can offer your residents e-bikes and scooters with almost no ongoing costs.

Success story

Massachusetts municipalities and stakeholders provide income-qualified users $1/day e-bike rentals that provide inexpensive transportation to job opportunities, tackle food deserts, and enable delivery couriers to access a work vehicle that doesn't cost them thousands to buy.
