About Us
Built for the Way We Explore
CYKEL is reimagining how people experience the world by bike by connecting riders with places, stories and experiences through technology designed to make every journey more engaging, accessible and memorable.
Our story
Placeholder. A paragraph on where this started — the ride, the city, the problem that would not go away. Long enough to set the scene without turning into a founder’s memoir.
Placeholder. A second paragraph on what changed once operators and riders got hold of it, and where that points next.

Rides guided so far
Riders first
Placeholder. Every decision starts with the person on the bike — if it does not make their ride better, it does not ship.
Built with operators
Placeholder. The people renting out vehicles know their cities better than we ever will, so the roadmap comes from their counters.
Local by default
Placeholder. Routes, stories and partners come from the place they belong to, not from a template applied to every city.
Fewer cars
Placeholder. A visitor who chooses two wheels over four is the whole point, and the reason the rest of this is worth building.
2022
Founded in Vancouver
Placeholder. Where it began, and the ride that started the argument for building any of this.
2023
The first route
Placeholder. A single self-guided ride, built for one rental shop, tested on borrowed bikes.
2024
Hardware on the handlebars
Placeholder. The Cykel device moves from prototype to something an operator can fit in ten minutes.
2025
One platform
Placeholder. Fleet management, experiences and rider app come together in a single dashboard.
2026
Across the coast
Placeholder. Operators in Vancouver, Seattle and San Francisco running connected fleets.
