The Bicihangar Rocket is a smart, modular and scalable bike and scooter parking for cities that protects bicycles and scooters from vandalism, theft and inclement weather. An unique solution to make a real difference in the mobility in our cities.

This solution has a series of characteristics that make it unique. Regarding existing solutions, our Bicihangar Rocket is completely digitized, which allows a considerable improvement of the user experience by being able to offer monthly subscriptions or pay-per-use, and not only annual subscriptions. In addition, the user accesses the Bicihangar Rocket through an app instead of using a physical key or a card, even if it is possible as well, which improves the user experience and allows an immediate use of the parking.

Furthermore our system does not steal any space from the pedestrian area. It is designed to occupy half of a car space, which makes the solution scalable using car parking spaces, instead of pedestrian curb space.

The system is also completely autonomous (solar energy) and self-standing, which avoids the need of civil works or connections to the power grid. The Bicihangar Rocket can be easily installed in less than a hour. In order to cope with higher user demand or variations, it can be relocated easily, as it is not “anchored” to the ground. It is also modular, so we can grow and scale as needed.

Finally, our value proposition is to offer a series of parking formats, - and not only the Bicihangar Rocket - all operating under the same technological platform, which provides seamless operations and experience for city halls and users.

Value Propositions

Micromobility represents one of humanity’s greatest hopes for a shift towards a zero-carbon future and in this context, the Bicihangar Rocket is a unique and sustainable solution to accelerate the change towards a sustainable model of urban mobility by:

eliminating a major barrier like the absence of secure parking options for bikes and scooters. Without safe and secure parking, riders are far more likely to experience adverse impacts such as theft, vandalism, and weather damage.
protected space while promoting a fair distribution of public space.
adding electrical chargers for electric bikes and scooters (solar-powered)
facilitating the integration and collaborations with third parties (MaaS, etc) thanks to well documented API’s
reducing noise, congestion and pollution by minimizing installation and civil works labor and time
promoting the use of private bikes and scooters in contrast to bike and scooter sharing systems that are much more costly for public entities, do not generate any local economy and invade public space and sidewalks.
