With crowded public transport and heavy traffic on roads there is a need for a different kind of transportation. Something that help get through traffic, be cheaper, easy to store away and healthy at the same time.
Bring in the Electric Bike. Many people have taken to cycling around the city to get to work or to get errands done. Today we look at the Go Cycle, a product that would make that ride a lot better.

What Needs to Be Added |

What would be interesting is to add kiosks around specific areas in town, near the outskirts of town for people to rent bikes / deposit bikes. This way there is a greater reach to people who’d prefer to cycle to work using the same duration of time as compared to waiting and taking public transport / driving to work.
