Powabyke
Powabyke is a British manufacturer of electric bicycles. Founded in 1999, the company was selling over 20,000 bikes per year by 2005 through a network of around 300 dealers including bike shops and motor accesory retailers. It has also branched out into golf carts.
Powabyke bikes and trikes are driven by a hub-mounted electric motor in the front wheel, powered by a removable rechargeable battery. The environmental impact of the battery is minimised through offering a refurbishment scheme.
Recently, Powabyke have been able to offer "park and charge" facilities in some areas.
