As is the case with most cheap electronics, bottom-dollar e-bikes included, once something breaks, say, the battery, people usually just toss the entire thing into the dumpster, as these products were never really meant to be repaired. One e-bike manufacturer based in Bordeaux, France, wants to change all of this by creating an e-bike that's completely repairable. This means you can replace only what's broken, thereby minimizing waste and optimizing cost.
As mentioned earlier, the bike has sustainability in mind, and is fully serviceable with just the necessary parts being replaced when needed. For example, the battery used on the electric bicycle can be opened with some basic hand tools, and only damaged or expired cells need to be replaced. This means that the original housing, mounting points, and hardware continues to be in use. Even the motor, which is produced by French company Virvolt, has been designed with the same philosophy in mind.
