Seven reasons why a life lived on two wheels is a good life and why Maeving is the perfect companion.
Here are seven reasons why a life lived on two wheels is a good life and why Maeving is the perfect companion.
Two-wheeled modes of transport are fast becoming the obvious choice for those living in urban centers. The movement towards cleaner, greener cities has given rise to an exponential increase in their popularity, with push bikes, e-bicycles, electric scooters, and motorcycles beginning to dominate city streets.
Yet these options come with limitations – limitations that we knew we could solve. We started Maeving because we believe electric motorcycles are the fastest, cleanest, and most enjoyable way to get around town. Because of this, Maeving is on a mission to spread the joy of two wheels to as many people as possible.

1. No More Wasting Time
According to Ridester.com, an online journal on the latest in ridesharing news, the average worker in the US spends a whopping 200 hours a year commuting. This is a staggering statistic when considering that this is unpaid time, which is not accounted for when thinking of a 9-to-5. In reality, that number soon becomes an 8-to-6 workday. Because of this, long commutes have been shown to have a directly proportional negative impact on a person’s satisfaction with work and life.
Waiting for stand-still traffic, delayed public transportation, or Ubers during surge pricing: they can all be a thing of the past. As with bicycles and scooters, riding a Maeving enables you to skip to the head of the queues, but with their greater capacity for speed, you’ll easily outstrip other vehicles. Our motorcycles are also more substantial and noticeable to other road users, making them a safer option. We build lightweight and maneuverable motorcycles, and the intuitive twist-and-go throttle allows you to have maximum control as you weave through traffic.
So don’t let your life be dictated by the restrictions of cars, taxis, and public transportation – it’s time to regain control of your schedule and create more time for pursuing your passions.
2. Good Vibes Only
Make moving through the place you call home something that brings you joy. There’s a reason why, like so many people, we are passionate about motorcycling – it’s enormous fun. There really is nothing like zipping through the streets on a machine that responds to every subtle command. Riding a Maeving is so simple that it can’t be anything but fun. Experience the pleasure of being the master of a feat of exceptional engineering.
Being above ground and out in the open air, you become a part of the city itself. You’re immersed in its views, its people, its quirks, its changes. You have the freedom to decide where you go and when. This allows you to be spontaneous and endlessly curious. Discovering hidden gems down small side streets, and new routes you never knew existed, you can revel in the variety that a place has to offer. Our electric motorcycles enable you to do this with zero emissions.
3. Mindful Travel
Reimagine what urban travel means to you. Traveling on two wheels requires focus, encouraging you to be fully present in your surroundings, responding to them moment by moment.
On public transportation, your attention is occupied by your phone or other passengers. In a car, you’re pulled towards fiddling with the heating or the sound system. But on a Maeving? You're fully present, immersed in the ride and your surroundings, enjoying the tranquillity and freedom of the journey.
This is because we designed our line of motorcycles with the rider’s experience in mind. First, say goodbye to range anxiety. Instead of being worried about when the battery will run out, we’ve built our battery system to be removable and able to be charged anywhere. Are you worried about the complexities of a clutch or gears? Our twist-and-go throttle is a stripped-down and easy-to-master advantage for riders. And you won’t have to worry about distracting sounds from the engine, as our electric motors are whisper-quiet, allowing you to tune in to the sounds of the world around you.
By eliminating all of these distractions, riding a Maeving provides you with the space and tranquillity to travel with mindful awareness. You have time to yourself.
4. We Know Heritage
We believe electric motorcycles should be additive to the world of motorcycling, not a challenge to it. With this vision front of mind, we build our motorcycles to generate a fantastic user experience, whilst retaining all of the classic design cues that make motorcycles so appealing. This unmatched marriage of cutting-edge technology and traditional automotive design techniques sets our collection apart from our peers and makes them particularly desirable.
Favouring elegant, clean styling and quality of finish, we make motorcycles that are as beautiful as they are functional. We have refined every detail: from the circular LED headlight to the analogue speedometer, from the bar-end mirrors to the clutter-free handlebars, from the pleasing lines of the frame to the carefully proportioned body. Even the batteries are a sight to behold, with their brushed aluminium casing and smoothly integrated carry-handles.
5. We Keep It Convenient
With a Maeving, zero emissions travel doesn’t mean compromising on comfort or ease. In striving to fulfil this mandate, Maeving has achieved a number of “firsts” in the motorcycle industry.
We have developed a Dual Battery Control Module that allows the Maeving RM1 to engage either a single battery, or two batteries running in parallel. The rider has the benefit of choice, either travelling on a single battery, giving them up to 40 miles of range, or using two batteries to double the range to up to 80 miles.
On the Maeving RM1S, we redesigned our side battery compartment, allowing two to stack onto each other horizontally. This frees up the tank as 2.6 GAL of built-in storage as standard. These two 2.7kWh batteries, working in conjunction with a 7kW Maeving hub motor, deliver more than twice the power of the RM1 and a top speed of 70mph, allowing road users who require a stretch of divided highway and freeway on their commute the opportunity to ride a stylish, emissions-free motorcycle.
We have also developed the first drop-in connector, which connects the batteries automatically when inserted into our motorcycles. No hassle from connection cables or fiddly attachments. On the Maeving RM1S, we have also opened up charging flexibility, by offering riders the opportunity to plug in directly from the mains.
6. For People, Communities, and the Planet
We set out to create a transport alternative that would improve the lives of urban commuters, while remaining committed to being part of the solution to the greatest challenge of our lifetime: the climate crisis.
With growth and expansion comes heavier demands on a city’s infrastructure, one of the results of which is traffic congestion. This plight of the modern world increases carbon emissions, air pollution levels, commuting times, road accidents, noise pollution, and emergency response times. In this way, congestion severely compromises the physical and mental wellbeing of individuals and communities, as well as the health of the natural environment of which we are a part.
Two-wheeled transport is a far more efficient use of the space and resources available for urban travel. When more road users choose this option, cities and their citizens become healthier.
If we are to re-define city travel, and set electric motorcycling at its heart, our vehicles need to harmonise with their urban environment, not be at odds with it. We built our electric motorcycles from the ground up to be beautiful, practical and sustainable. We intend for them to help cities evolve into the beautiful, practical and sustainable spaces that they can and should be.
7. Financially Sound
To charge our custom Maeving battery from zero to hero takes a matter of hours and it costs less than a dollar. For an average American commute within an urban area, this makes our bike one of the most economical transport options out there, substantially cheaper than traveling by car or public transportation.
And, powered by a hub motor with a single moving part, there's no gas, chain, oil, or belt to deal with, making maintenance simple and servicing economical.
