Background of development: Consumers are now placing importance not only on the "mileage," but also on the "reliability of the manufacturer.

According to a survey of 200 men and women conducted via the Internet in March 2024 by SHUFUFU, an information media for housewives, the most important factor to consider when purchasing an electrically power assisted bicycle is the "running distance (capacity)" (17%). (capacity) (17%) and the reliability of the manufacturer (15.5%) came in second. In addition to the basic specifications, such as the range, the reliability of the manufacturer is also important (50s-plus male), as there have been cases of electric bicycles from other countries catching fire and exploding.
