Looks very good, but what happens when a tier brakes? are they standards would I buy a replacement wheel in normal shop? When any of the electric systems have issues (the starter button for example or lights break)... A: Hello Leonardo, great question! High wear parts such as the tires and pedals can be replaced by standard off-the-shelf parts. Most owners will be able to perform basic service by themselves like any other bike. At the same time, we do recognize that Reevo is special and may be intimidating for the average person to maintain. We are addressing this by partnering with regional distributors to build a strong after-sales service network in key markets. We do sell mudguards as an optional accessor... - Q: Will there be an option for riders who want higher handlebars? Not everybody likes to lean forward. A: Hi Robert, thank you for your question. Adjustable handlebars was not possible as it negatively impacted the look and feel of the bike. However, the bike does come with adjustable seating which could be used to find a comfortable riding position. - Q: Hi what would happen to the batteries if they die out are they recyclable? Congratulation on your incredible progress. A: Hi Branden, thank you for the kind wishes! We use lithium ion batteries to power the bike. These batteries can be recycled, but it depends on the owner's willingness to take the effort to do so. We recognize that this is a problem, and perhaps an opportunity for the nascent EV market. On our side, we also have plans to address this in the future by offering an easy way for riders to swap their batteries through a subscription service - which led to our design choice of an easily accessible ba... - Q: Ciao, ho finanziato una bicicletta reevo (ID1357) lo scorso anno su indiegogo, ora sarei interessato a questa campagna, ma non conoscendo per niente questo tipo di cose, volevo capire, se investo 5000$ cosa sono queste voci "Everything in $1,000 tier + $150 in store credit whe... A: Ciao Roberto, grazie per aver acquistato una bici Reevo e per il tuo sostegno a questa campagna! I vantaggi sono cumulativi, il che significa che se investi $ 1.000 riceverai anche tutto nel livello di $ 500. I primi $ 200.000 prenotati nella nostra campagna Wefunder riceveranno condizioni di investimento preferenziali (limite di valutazione inferiore del 10%). (tradotto con Google Traduttore) - Q: Quick question. Could you go in more depth into your business model? I'm looking to better understand who your customers are, and if there's optionality in potential customers for the future. A: Hi Vrat, great question. Our short to medium term business model is similar to other e-bike companies - develop a great product, expand the market and distribution channels, ensure great after-sales service; repeat. Our goal here is to build a strong customer base and penetrate key markets. In the medium to long term, we have plans to build value added services on top of that business to expand revenue streams and build recurring income. One such example of this is a battery subscription and ...
