Spread the love

I run electrical tests kick scooter As a part of my work. They’re great to ride and zip around town, but they’re not cold Or not particularly comfortable. You are standing on this L-shaped object, like a meerkat on wheels. Motorcycles on the other hand? There’s no other class of car that exudes so much style, especially looks like this one Maeving’s new RM2.

If you love the roar of motorbikes and the smell of petrol, this is it Electric motorcycle Probably not for you. Seb Inglis-Jones, MyVing’s co-founder, told me that the company is targeting a demographic of people who probably want something more powerful than one. Electric bicycle But not as intense as gas powered bikes. Someone who might actually like a practically silent ride experience (read: me). However, you still need a license to drive a motorcycle in the United States.

The Maeving RM2 opens for pre-order today in the US for $10,995, a small jump from Previous RM1S And a big price bump from Original RM1. They will ship in January 2026. It shares the same powertrain as the RM1S, hitting a top speed of 70 mph with an 80-mile range.

However, the RM2’s calling card is the bench seat, so you can finally ride with a passenger. The tank is short and wide to accommodate the pillion seat, but you can enjoy the experience of sitting more upright. An added bonus: you can add a rear rack and top box for helmet storage.

Inglis-Jones and Will Stirrup founded Mewing in the UK just before the pandemic, neither of whom had a motorbike background (or vehicles for that matter). After meeting at university, the two decided to start a company together, with two conditions. They don’t want to start a business with no experience out of college, and anything they build will help fight climate change in some way. Stirrup went on to work in the world of finance after college, and Inglis-Jones entered a sales and marketing career.
