What will you be financing?

50 Rebels is a Portuguese e-bike manufacturer with a mission to bring sustainable and innovative transportation solutions to the world. As a brand that keeps as much of its value chain in Portugal as possible - from design to assembly - they are committed to strengthening their headquarters in Torres Vedras to continue innovating in e-bike manufacturing.

This is the promotor's third campaign, after successfully funding 125.000€ in 50 Rebels I, and II to to support the acquisition of production materials, invest in R&D capabilities, and obtain certification. 

50 Rebels' new goal is to finance 600 batteries for electric bicycles. This battery stock will be used for its 2025 bicycle production, supporting anticipated sales growth and ensuring a reliable supply of essential components made in Portugal. By securing battery stock in advance, the promoter expects to enhance production efficiency, reduce lead times, and improve inventory control, supporting faster order fulfillment and increased sales capacity.

50 Rebels indirectly promotes Portugal's economy and the environment by spreading sustainable transportation solutions toward a greener future!

What is the impact?

Direct 

  • Promotion of local industry and employment: the 50 Rebels bikes are produced mainly in Portuguese manufactures, in the north of the country. The local production promotes and boosts the local industry, which in turn, generates employment. With the financing of this project, 50 Rebels will purchase 600 batteries to be used in bikes assembly during 2025. 
  • Decarbonization of transport and cities: The use of electric bikes for daily commuting contribute to decarbonize cities and improve air-quality, since they are non-polluting methods of transportation. Also, each electric bike used for daily commuting to work avoids in average 243 kgs of CO2 emissions per year, in comparison with the use of a diesel car, which is the equivalent to the absorption of 11 trees yearly. Considering the 600 new bikes funded with this campaign, they will avoid 145 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year by replacing diesel cars. 

Indirect 

  • Promotion of healthy lifestyles and well-being: increased cycling habits in cities contribute to air quality and road safety, when it replaces individual motorized transport, and to healthier lifestyles from the exercise. 
  • Promotion of sustainable cities’ infrastructure: the financing of this projects contributes to more people cycling, which incentivizes public policy towards building resilient infrastructure for sustainable transport systems. 
  • Promote accessible and sustainable transport systems: the financing of this project can empower people in locomotion, in which they will have access to sustainable transport systems.
