URB-E: The world’s most compact e-vehicle

The Ultimate ‘Last Mile’ Vehicle

It takes only one second to convert the URB-E from something the size of carry on luggage to a ‘go anywhere’ personal e-vehicle!  Although there are other options for mobility devices such as bicycles and larger, more expensive e-vehicles on the market, it is not always possible to take these vehicles with you while traveling on a crowded train or bus during rush hour.  Because of its amazingly compact size and ability to stay with you while traveling on a train, bus, or trunk of your car, the URB-E makes for the perfect commuter companion.

Other applications well suited for the URB-E include RV’s, Boats, Private Aircraft, Universities, Corporate Campuses, Government Agencies, Resorts, and Tourism.

The URB-E COMMUTER

The URB-E Commuter is the perfect vehicle for the highly congested urban environment.  Its three wheel trike design allows for added stability and greater lower speed maneuverability, perfect for navigating pedestrian traffic.  The two rear wheels also serve as a very stable way to roll the URB-E around while in its folded position, similar to pulling a piece of luggage.  Although the URB-E Commuter is capable of the same speeds as the GP (15mph), it is better suited for slower speed turns.

The URB-E GP

The URB-E GP is… well… let’s just say… a LOT of fun!  Although this machine has the exact same power specifications as its more practical brother, the URB-E GP likes to live on the wild side.  The short wheel base of the GP’s two wheel design gives it the agility of race car and a fun factor of 11 out of 10!  Unlike anything you’ve ridden before, the GP will bring you back to the way you felt when you first learned how to ride a bike!  Though it’s a little more challenging than the URB-E Commuter at slower speeds, we’re sure you won’t be disappointed riding the coolest e-bike in town!

Personalize your URB-E!

Your URB-E can be personalized by choosing your own color combination.  Both the URB-E Commuter and URB-E GP will be offered initially in our three base colors (Carbon Grey, Cloud White, or GoGo Green) or two premium colors (Polished Gold or MRDR Black).  With your order, you will be able to choose from a selection of accent color inserts.  Accent color choices are black, blue, white, hot pink, yellow, or Dot orange.

Unlimited Customization!

In addition to the accent color you choose, you will also receive a second set of clear sleeves, which are fully customizable to create whatever design or color you desire.  We will include instructions on some easy ways to create a custom design, and later in the year, we will host a competition on our website to see who created the most unique designs.  The winners of the competition will win some really great stuff including URB-E accessories, and will have their designs posted on our website for the entire URB-E community to see!

Charge your smart phone

(IOS & ANDROID)

The universal smart phone holder will work for both IOS and ANDROID, and will enable you to charge your phone while you ride.  The external USB plug also allows you to use the URB-E’s Lithium Ion battery to charge any additional device such as a laptop, tablet, etc.

URB-E App

The URB-E App is being developed for both IOS and ANDROID, and will monitor battery charge, range, speed, controls for LED lighting, music, and navigation.  There will also be an optional power override feature which will allow you to utilize your mobile device as the URB-E’s key.  Our release of the App will be announced in the near future.

Adaptable and theft resistant

Due to its unique ability to collapse, the URB-E can be taken virtually anywhere!  Whether you are going into your office, moving around a corporate campus, heading into a college classroom, or going for lunch in a fancy restaurant, the URB-E can go wherever bikes can’t, and because it can always stay with you, you no longer need to worry about it being stolen!
