November , 2025

It was on a cold fall day in Vancouver, Canada, the 30th of November 2005, that a handful of UBC classmates who thought motorizing bikes and skateboards was the the most fun thing ever came together and officially incorporated the “The Renaissance Bicycle Company”. It was a time when ebikes as a thing were still mostly unheard of, and the early adoption was primarily driven by DIYers with an eye for the future, and we wanted to make more parts and kits available for such enthusiasts.

We had no idea where things would lead to in 5 let alone 20 years, but it’s fun to reflect on that journey and the many forks (no pun there!) it’s taken to where we are as Grin Technologies today! Over that time our core mission of designing and supplying parts for DIY electric vehicle builds has been unwavering, even as the global ebike movement has gone massively mainstream.

We’re celebrating our 20 year anniversary with the largest kit sale in our history ever! For the entire month of November, we are offering any Bafang (except wheelbarrows), Nine Continent, or eZee hub motor for (drumroll please...)

when purchased as part of a conversion kit with a battery pack! That’s over 90% off the standard motor price.

The saving will show up automatically once you’ve got your parts in your cart.

Why are we doing this?

As we step into our 3rd decade, we’re going to pivot away from carrying a wide assortment of hub motors from many different vendors to just focusing on Grin’s own All-Axle motor lineup. With almost 80% of our customers are already choosing the All-Axle motor over the alternatives, it makes sense to now focus exclusively on that.   

At the same time, our supply of powerful high temperature magnets to make more All-Axle hubs has hit some snags recently with all the chinese rare earth export limits, so it is useful for us to move more of these other motor models for a while :-) 

And 20% off LiGos Too

To add to this, we are offereng a 20% discount on our recently-launched LiGo 10X batteries as well.  The feedback from customers has been amazing, with countless successful flights logged already. If you’ve been on wanting to purchase a LiGo 10X battery system that you can fly with, now is the best time! And yes, this discount is applicable together with the $20 motor special above so you can get a kit with 20% off your LiGo 10Xs and your motor for $20!!

The 20% savings on the LiGos will show up automatically once added to your cart.

~ Remember: These Sales last until 30th of November 2025. ~
