What You're Getting
The Factory's Bet. Your Ride.
$2,595. Not a discount. A factory's decision to find the right 120 riders.
The Story Behind the Bike
Building the Civilized nearly broke its founders. They set out to design what no cargo bike company had done before — a fully integrated urban cargo platform. Purpose-built. Enclosed drivetrain. Hard-shell panniers that expand from 20 to 80 liters. A 750W mid-drive motor.
They pulled it off. Electrek, The Verge, and Electric Bike Report covered it. Riders called it the best cargo bike they'd ever ridden.
Then the capital ran out.
The factory had a choice. They chose the brand — releasing 120 bikes at a loss to find the riders who would prove what this platform is.
$2,595 is not a discount. It is a factory's bet.
120 bikes. 45 days. When they're gone, they're gone.

• Expanding integrated panniers (compact when empty, large when needed)
• Step-through frame for easy mounting

The unique design adjusts based on load, maintaining comfort and stability whether solo or fully loaded.

What is your warranty policy?
We offer a 10 year frame warranty and a 2 year warranty on all other components. Typical wear items are excluded - tires, brake pads, etc.
What are the laws concerning ebikes?
We ultimately recommend checking your local laws before operation as state laws vary. However, many have adopted the California '3 class' system as a framework.
- Class '1' ebikes are pedal assist only with top speed of 20mph.
- Class '2' ebikes have a throttle and a top speed of 20 mph.
- Class '3' ebikes are do not provide throttle assistance over 20mph, and have a top motor assistance speed of 28mph.
The Model 1 has multiple power levels that allow it to be either a class '2' or class '3' ebike.
