Colorado Electric Bicycle Company Partners with Boulder Bike Sharing Program
The Boulder BCycle Electric Assist Service Trailer
The BEAST Loaded with Bikes
Optibike, the oldest Electric Bicycle Manufacturer in America, announces its partnership with the Boulder BCycle Bike Sharing Program.
PAONIA, COLORADO, US, April 18, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Colorado based Electric Bicycle Manufacturer,Optibike, announces the continuation of the 4 year partnership with Bike Sharing Program, Boulder BCycle for 2018.
Optibike and Boulder BCycle created the BEAST (Boulder B-cycle Electric-Assist Service Trailer) to solve the problem of re balancing the bikes from station to station.
With 43 stations and over 300 rental bikes, Boulder BCycle has a huge task of re-balancing the stations as too many bikes get to one station. Prior to the Optibike and the BEAST, BCycle would use a pick up truck. The pickup truck was costly, increased traffic congestion and pollution and was difficult to maneuver in small city areas.
The powerful Optibike Pioneer Allroad, assembled in the US, tows a large trailer carrying up to three B-cycles at a time to allow environmentally-friendly distribution of bikes between downtown stations at peak times. It also provides the Boulder B-cycle team with transportation to events when truck access isn't permitted, which is a huge benefit!
Optibike has been sponsoring this program since 2013, and in 2018 the program will be back and bigger than ever! Look for the BEAST on Boulder streets from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
