HumanForest has announced that it has integrated a new style of e-bike into its existing fleet, offering its users with a range of upgraded specifications which improve accessibility, ride quality and operational efficiencies, without compromising on safety and durability.

The e-bike is agile and manoeuvrable, making it easy for people to handle, especially when parking. Although the maximum speed legally remains at 25 km/h, the streamlined weight translates to a quick start off the mark, allowing users feel the full enjoyment of riding an e-bike.

HumanForest’s 250,000 users have completed over one million rides in London over the last year, avoiding 194 tonnes of CO₂ from being emitted into the air and displacing 250,000 car trips. The micro-mobility operator is a favoured option for commuting, with 40 per cent of daily trips being second, third or fourth trips and 10 per cent of HumanForest users taking a trip every three days.

Designed to compete with consumer bikes in terms of rideability and aesthetic, HumanForest’s latest addition appeals to an even wider audience and further encourages a behavioural change among the masses that is required to have a lasting positive impact on the environment and decarbonise cities.

In addition, HumanForest hopes that the increased height range of the seat post will accommodate a greater variety of people and improve the accessibility of its service. The comfortability of the e-bike has also been addressed, with a combination of spoked wheels, soft tyres and a thicker seat absorbing the impact from any bumps on London’s roads.

Agustin Guilisasti, CEO and Founder, HumanForest, said: “We are delighted to raise the bar on micro-mobility in London, improving the sustainability and accessibility of our service with a lightweight frame and longer range battery. HumanForest is supporting a modal shift among Londoners and we’re excited that, with our new e-bike, even more people can enjoy the benefits of active and sustainable travel.”
