BearEbike going Global!

BearEbike development is now expanding to the global markets and two transportation options are available: by vessel or by plane.

While vessel transport may seem to be an easier option the most significant disadvantage is delivery time, which can take several dozen days for the customer to receive the order. Therefore, the air transport is the only option left. However, it rises an question whether it's feasible since electric vehicles, despite being excellent means of transportation, pose risks during long-distance transportation due to their batteries.

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) is a global organization responsible for regulating the air transport of dangerous goods, including electric vehicles.

   

   

In the past few years, updates were published regarding recommendations for transporting dangerous goods, including lithium-ion batteries. As a result, the transport options have been reduced. According to IATA, the batteries transported by aircrafts must follow the strict requirements of UN 38.3 Standards. These standards involves testing the batteries under various conditions that can occur during air transportation, such as changes in temperature, pressure, and crushing. These tests are designed to ensure that the batteries are safe for this kind of transportation and do not pose a risk to the passengers of the plane.

   

   

BearEbike can proudly announce that we are the only manufacturer who passed tests for UN38.3 Standard. So now all our products can be easily transported by plane, and it takes only a few days to deliver brand new BearEbike to the new owner. This week we are sending 6 vehicles to Dubai, Australia and the USA.

   

   

We ensure the safe transportation of our BearEbikes by packing them in secure, specifically designed boxes for our vehicles. The boxes properly secure and fasten the vehicles. As a BearEbike Company we pay a great attention to the quality of packing and make sure that they will be safely delivered to any destination around the world.

   

   

We encourage you to watch the video of preparing the vehicles for air transportation. Here you can find the instructional video of unpacking the vehicle, where despite the useful information you will find a veery interesting shots.
