Commuting to work on a bicycle has long been seen as the best way to make a small contribution to protect the environment. Finding little ways to avoid fossil fuels while getting to experience crisp morning air is a great way to start the day. Unfortunately, not everyone has the luxury of being able to bike to work, because many of us live farther from our destination than we could possibly bike every day.
Commutes are getting longer and longer from big cities, and riding a bike isn’t possible, especially for commutes that have large changes in elevation. Luckily, technology continues to advance and has now brought great options to continue protecting the environment while making it easier for biking commuters to get to their destinations without sweating too hard.
eBikes are now readily available to make your commute easier and better, and the Delfast Prime 2.0 is a unique, high quality option.
Why Delfast?
Delfast is a luxury eBike company best known for receiving a World Guinness Record for creating an eBike with the longest range compared to all other eBikes in the world. All of the bikes are created to help save the environment while saving the user money.
As of now, Delfast bikes have saved 1,288,989 tons of CO2 from entering the atmosphere, and that number is continually growing. On top of that, charging the bike only costs an average of $16 dollars per year, as opposed to hundreds if not thousands of dollars of gas; the company estimates that users have saved $1,091,105 by not having to pay for gas and car maintenance.
Delfast Prime 2.0 Features
The feature on the Delfast Prime 2.0 that’s most surprising is the range; this bike can go over 230 miles, or 370 kilometers on a single charge. The bike features a max speed of 28 MPH, or 45 KPH. The bike weighs 132 LBs, or 60 KG, and has a weight limit of 275 LBs, or 125 KG.
The eBike is designed for long-distance, comfortable rides. It has been tested in various different weather conditions and is designed to handle the elements. It also features rear and front shock absorbers for additional riding comfort.
Startup
A startup or start-up is a company or project undertaken by an entrepreneur to seek, develop, and validate a scalable business model. While entrepreneurship refers to all new businesses, including self-employment and businesses that never intend to become registered, startups refer to new businesses that intend to grow large beyond the solo founder. At the beginning, startups face high uncertainty and have high rates of failure, but a minority of them do go on to be successful and influential. Some startups become unicorns; that is privately held startup companies valued at over US$1 billion.
Actions
Startups typically begin by a founder (solo-founder) or co-founders who have a way to solve a problem. The founder of a startup will begin market validation by problem interview, solution interview, and building a minimum viable product (MVP), i.e. a prototype, to develop and validate their business models. The startup process can take a long period of time (by some estimates, three years or longer), and hence sustaining effort is required. Over the long term, sustaining effort is especially challenging because of the high failure rates and uncertain outcomes. Having a business plan in place outlines what to do and how to plan and achieve an idea in the future. Typically, these plans outline the first 3 to 5 years of your business strategy.
Design principles
Models behind startups presenting as ventures are usually associated with design science. Design science uses design principles considered to be a coherent set of normative ideas and propositions to design and construct the company's backbone. For example, one of the initial design principles is "affordable loss".
