This week, a Sydney-based electric bicycle company Bolt Bikes officially announced its expansion into the US and UK. Unlike other e-bike companies, Bolt Bikes wants its primary customers to be gig workers instead of pedestrians looking to save a little time. For a $39 a week, subscribers will get their own e-bike, a battery charger, a smartphone mount for their handlebars, a U-Lock, and full maintenance and repair coverage. But most importantly, they'll get a shot at becoming an on-demand delivery person for any number of apps that have become popular in recent years, including Uber Eats, Instacart, Deliveroo, and Door Dash. Since June, Bolt Bikes has been running a pilot program in San Francisco with Postmates, a food delivery app first founded in 2011.
