A visual language that finds theatre in the everyday.

01 — STRATEGY

Ease starts before the ride.

Launching direct to consumers during the pandemic meant the brand had to earn confidence without a shop floor. We positioned Charge around the whole experience: a simple range of three bikes, a clear path to purchase, delivery to your door and a first ride within minutes.

IDEA
Make riding feel easy from first click to first ride.

OUTPUT
Brand positioning, direct-to-consumer launch, identity rollout, customer experience and packaging.

02 — CREATIVE WORLD

Working with Instrument, we brought that promise to life through an energetic, welcoming identity. Clear language and rider-led imagery made electric cycling feel accessible and fun.

03 — EXPERIENCE

From box to bike in minutes.

We carried the thinking into the product experience. Bikes arrived nearly assembled, with a four-step setup using one tool. The packaging used recyclable materials, replacing foam and plastic wrap. In 2021, Charge City was named Best Electric Bike at the Tom’s Guide Awards.
