Wow, what a wonderful start!

Also, we had a chance to talk with Mark Fields about what's next and whether there could be a partnership or support from their side. We are so grateful for this opportunity and we are currently in touch with their Future Mobility Manager to evaluate how to create sinergies between Bikee Bike and their ongoing and future programs. 

Being awarded from FORD puts us outside the XTC competition so we won't be at the final in Necker Island. This time...

Franco Cimurri, founder of Dynalab, chose Bikee Bike drive system to present his first Revolution Bike project. A carbon fiber smart bike with embedded batteries into the frame, proximity sensors to spot nearby cars and pressure sensors on the saddle. 

Do you want to discover more about this bike? Contact us and we'll put you in touch with Franco.

A lot of good things happened in the last 60 days: we had the official product presentation ( aka Demo Day, see the next paragraph), 2 tradeshows, we made a submission for the XTC and we won it. We had to prioritize those good things and, since the amount of available time is fixed, some other things went in the backburn for a while. Kickstarter is one of those. 
In the next 30 days we hope we'll put down fix dates for the campaign, so we apologize with you for the delay. 
We decided to prioritize the Extreme Tech Challenge contest because we knew we had the opportunity to play our game, as we did. The $50,000 prize will help us to reduce both the Kickstarter campaign goal and kit price. That's because the tooling cost will be partially covered by those.
Also, the visibility coming from such an achievement can attract the attention of investors, speeding up the manufacturing set-up process.

We plan to start delivering the motors in October this year, but we'll need your support for that.
