SAN FRANCISCO - May 13, 2016 - PRLog -- Electric bike startup FLUX reached a major milestone this morning when they hit $1M USD on their Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign. With 16 days left on the campaign, the sky is the limit for Flux; they've swept the Indiegogo platform this month, becoming the highest funded premium e-bike in the history of Indiegogo and the highest funded campaign currently funding on Indiegogo.
"Our supporters have proven that they want to shape the future of transportation, and we're honored to join them for the ride," said founder Robert Rast about this major milestone. "We're going to continue to work our asses off to bring our supporters the best e-bike experience they can imagine."
Flux Bike proudly announced that with this achievement there will be an exciting new bonus for all contributors. The bonus is an additional USB port on the handlebar-mounted LCD display, allowing bikers to charge their devices while they ride. "Now while you're riding to work, you can text on one phone and play angry birds on the other, without having to worry about your battery life anymore!" they joked in an email to backers, alluding to the second USB port accessible on the battery while riding.
Team FLUX is headed to their manufacturing location soon to begin a highly involved manufacturing process, where they will personally oversee the production of every single bike. Without this kind of quality control, it would be impossible to make the best e-bike in the world.
