Bykko case study

On Demand transport is all about first and last mile choices that suit customers.

BYKKO electric bike sharing is a great example of personal mobility to get people to and from public transport. Bykko is an Australian enterprise specialising in research, development and implementation of intelligent bike sharing and personal mobility.

Customers use an app to register, book (or subscribe) and access a pedal assisted bike with a rechargeable electric motor allowing bike and rider to work together to travel at speeds of up to 25km/h. The electric assistance can be adjusted to suit the rider and discontinues when they stop pedalling or use the brakes.

"We hope the trial’s success will spark the interest of corporates and property developers that consider themselves early adopters of innovative transport alternatives with real benefits for health and wellbeing."

Monica Zarafu, Founder and CEO of Bykko

"Simply a brilliant trial that needs the assistance of local council to expand across the city."

eBike Rider

In early 2018 Bykko, an Australian company, was awarded a contract for the delivery of electric bikes to selected areas in Newcastle. Customers can collect and return electric bikes from 19 docking stations across the city.

Our experience tells us that customers love having mobility options including ones that allow them to be more active and this has been no exception. A survey of people who work or live near the Newcastle West area showed that  87% of the respondents found eBikes to be extremely easy to use, with the majority of respondents using the eBikes at least once a week.
