About

VIGG.bike is a next-generation electric bike designed to revolutionize urban mobility by combining the comfort and weather protection of a car with the agility and simplicity of a bicycle. Its sleek, minimalist design features a lightweight, streamlined chassis and a protective shell, making it suitable for all weather conditions. The vehicle targets urban commuters, families, students, and seniors—anyone who wants to move freely through the city without getting stuck in traffic or exposed to the elements.

Key highlights:

  • Four-wheeled, compact design: A stable, low-profile structure for enhanced safety and maneuverability, inspired by minimalist off-road vehicles and performance e-bikes.

  • Full weather protection: Outer and inner shells shield riders from rain, wind, and cold, ensuring year-round usability.

  • Electric assist: Efficient 250W motor with integrated pedal drive for smooth, effortless rides.

  • Smart modularity: Uses standard components for easier and more affordable production and maintenance.

  • Urban focus: Perfect for commuting, school runs, errands, and leisure—making car-free city living realistic for everyone.

  • Sustainable & fun: Eco-friendly, cost-effective, and enjoyable to use in any season.

VIGG.bike aims to make city travel simple, enjoyable, and sustainable, empowering more people to choose bikes over cars—no matter the weather.
