About us

At CYCLE, we’re redefining urban mobility for the people who keep cities moving: couriers, riders, and delivery pros. Our e-bike subscription service combines durable vehicles, fast repairs, and real support, everything riders need to stay on the road.

From Berlin to London, Vienna to Amsterdam, we operate in 200+ cities across Europe, providing thousands of riders with bikes built for work, not for show.

Our mission is simple: make last-mile delivery more reliable, affordable, and sustainable, one ride at a time. With every bike we deploy, we’re helping build the backbone of smarter, greener cities.

Ride with us into the future – sustainable, efficient, and full speed ahead!
