EPISODE 2: Why the Tires Matter
Most e-bikes are built for smooth roads.
The African BushBike wasn't.
In this episode, Tate Philip, one of the original designers of the BushBike, explains why we chose rugged motorcycle-grade tires capable of handling gravel roads, sand, mud, potholes and rough terrain that would stop ordinary bicycles in their tracks.
More grip. More durability. Fewer punctures. More confidence when the road disappears.
Because in Africa, reliability isn't a luxuryβit's a requirement.
π₯ Watch Episode 2 and discover why the tires are one of the BushBike's most important features.

Mobilising African Communities. Making urban & rural mobility more sustainable, one E-Bike at a time.
Built in Africa. Designed for the roads others avoid.
Meet Tate Philip, one of the original designers and makers behind the African BushBike.
In this short interview, Tate explains why the BushBike was created, how it performs in demanding African conditions, and why it is becoming a practical alternative for farms, lodges, security patrols, estates and everyday utility transport.
This is not simply an electric bicycle. It is a rugged, low-maintenance workhorse designed for gravel roads, sand, heavy loads and long working daysβwithout petrol costs, vehicle registration or complicated charging infrastructure.
Watch the story behind the machine.
