Hey everyone!
I’m in the process of launching a start-up and before I get too deep I’m wondering if anyone is even interested in my idea. I’d love to hear feedback, your personal stories, etc. to help me figure out this journey.
Ever get out for a ride and your shifting failed because of a dead battery?
Worse yet, ever drive to the start of your ride and realize you left your battery at home on the charger?
Ever have to put in your Strava title that your GPS died?
I’ve done them all.
Early adopters will say that it’s easy enough to carry a spare battery or to switch batteries between components to regain function. But that’s not good enough for me.
So, I’m in the process of launching a product (www.AGNCYInnovation.com) to solve this problem. We’re exploring a few technologies – nothing is commercially ready yet. Some will charge your components when you park your bike at home, others will charge while you’re riding.
Our goal is keep your batteries constantly ready for action with essentially no input from you. No plugging in chargers, no swapping or taking batteries off your bike. Just get on and go (like the good old days of mechanical shifting!).
