STAJVELO - CHIC ELECTRIC CHIC ELECTRIC With its unique design and subtle colors (gun, black or white), the RV01 by Stajvelo is an elegant electric bike. But that is not all. The RV01 is a true technological wonder, but has the good taste to let this fact be forgotten, leaving urban users to simply enjoy the ease and pleasure of pedaling in style. 2 THE ELECTRIC BICYCLE COMPANY

A UNIQUE ECODESIGN The RV01 s atypical lines were developed in collaboration with designers from the worlds of sports, fashion, and graphic design as the Be-Pôles studio. But its unique style also lies in the way it is manufactured. Indeed, developed in collaboration with reputed technical director François Kerautret, the RV01 is made of assembled injection molded components. Since most of the materials used in its manufacture are recyclable, it does not pollute and is environmentally-friendly. The true spirit of (re)cycling! RIDE THE WORLD MONACO 3

STAJVELO - CHIC ELECTRIC TECHNOLOGY SERVING COMFORT AND SAFETY To create a new-generation electric bike, Stajvelo has applied to bicycle design technologies that had never been used in this domain, especially not for city bikes. The result includes innovations such as a new hydraulic disc braking system setup offering increased control and grip, especially during emergency braking. 4 THE ELECTRIC BICYCLE COMPANY

For its lighting system, Stajvelo has chosen Supernova M99 Mini, the strongest in the world, with two lighting modes in front (high or low beam) and two different beam angles in back, in order to be visible from any angle. A rear brake light system is also available. The RV01 also features Baramind anti-vibration, shock absorber handlebar. With built-in downward flexibility and upward rigidity, it is able to absorb shocks while ensuring perfect manoeuvrability. The same is true of its frame with directional effect and unique geometry, for guaranteed easy steering. RIDE THE WORLD MONACO 5

STAJVELO - CHIC ELECTRIC Designed by an ergonomics expert, the frame also adapts to all body heights. Whether you are 5 3 or 6 7, the pedaling position is optimal and ease-of-use guaranteed. The RV01 does however come in two sizes: S/M (5 3 to 5 9 ) and M/L (5 9 to 6 7 ). The Lookin seat by Selle Royal also contributes to its excellent riding comfort. Made of Royal Gel, it reduces pressure peaks by up to 40%. 6 THE ELECTRIC BICYCLE COMPANY

EASY TO USE, FOR A NEW EXPERIENCE OF THE CITY Stajvelo s motto is to make city biking not only simpler, but elegant, so that elegant urbanites can enjoy all the pleasure and practicality of cycling. No more changing gears! Pedaling control is fully assisted up to 25 km/h (15 mph). The gears change automatically, and when you stop, your bike automatically goes into the lowest gear so that you can start again without straining. And perfectly quiet! It is virtually soundless, thanks to the 48V-Revolution by Continental (the first electric bike to be powered by 48V with continuous automatic transmission integrated into an all-in-one drive unit). RIDE THE WORLD MONACO 7

STAJVELO - CHIC ELECTRIC Goodbye to the monkey wrench and other tools you can never seem to find when you need them. Stajvelo is the first to have created easy-on-and-off monoblock wheels with standard tubeless tires, for easier maintenance. Its single attachment system for all accessories (baby seat, bag, top case, etc.) means you can leave the screwdriver at home. And the pliers too! The RV01 is equipped with a carbon belt. Remember all those times you used to wrestle your bike chain back on, and the inevitable grease on your socks? A distant memory! 8 THE ELECTRIC BICYCLE COMPANY

When you park your bike, the central kickstand improves stability. Forgot where you left it? No problem! The geolocation system will indicate your bike s precise location via an app (ios and Android). A second app provides data such as remaining battery charge, number of kilometers traveled, and average speed. GPS and health and fitness data are also available. All of this information can be consulted on your smartphone or via the display on the RV01 s handlebars. A true e-bike. The RV01 s ease-of-use carries over to its distribution: it will initially be sold online (stajvelo.com), later becoming available at concept store retailers. RIDE THE WORLD MONACO 9

STAJVELO - CHIC ELECTRIC MADE IN MONACO The RV01 was developed within less than a year thanks to a combination of talents. And it is made in Monaco! Its wheels and frame are manufactured in France (injection molded outside Lyon, and painted and decorated near Annecy), and then assembled in the Principality of Monaco. The rest of the components are from mostly European suppliers. 10 THE ELECTRIC BICYCLE COMPANY

A BIKE LOVER S DREAM COME TRUE Stajvelo and the idea of producing a new-generation electric bike took shape in the mind of a true bike lover and daily urban electric cyclist. Thierry Manni, an avid cyclophile, is also passionate about Monaco technologies and industry. He is a longstanding stakeholder in the automotive equipment manufacturer Novares (formerly Mecaplast), specializing in plastic injection techniques and innovative development of parts for vehicle interiors, exteriors, and engines. We wanted a simple bike boosted with technologies, for an urban clientèle that wants a different experience of the city. For me, the origin and quality of the components and materials is essential. Today, I am proud to have produced the first electric bike made in Monaco. RIDE THE WORLD MONACO 11
