Smarthalo 2 raises $1.2 million on Kickstarter
Xavier Peich and company’s latest Smarthalo bike computer asked for $75,000 on Kickstarter. The gadget has now raised $1.2 million and counting.
“Designed by cyclists, for cyclists,” the SmartHalo 2 is the all-in-one connected device for bikes. It helps cyclists discover new routes with clear navigation signals, protects their bike with an ear-piercing anti-theft alarm and lights the way with a redesigned front light.
The Smarthalo2 also tracks and displays cycling metrics without having to push a single button, syncs fitness apps and keeps cyclists connected to what matters with the brand new, customizable PeekDisplay.
Smarthalo is a venture-backed, Montreal-based technology and design company. Over 25,000 cyclists in over 70 countries bought the company’s first product. It is distributed in Apple Stores, Amazon, Best Buy, Gravis, MoMa Design Stores, and more.
“We built SmartHalo to make cycling the future of urban mobility. We believe cycling is not merely a hobby or a sport – it’s a way of life. We want to share the joy of feeling the wind in your hair. To convince the world to cycle, we strive to build amazing cycling products that combine sophisticated technologies and elegant simplicity,” wrote Peich.

Howdy! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you
using for this website? I’m getting sick and tired
of WordPress because I’ve had issues with hackers and I’m
looking at options for another platform.

platform.

Great job.
I don’t know if it’s just me or if perhaps everybody else encountering issues
with your site. It seems like some of the written text in your content are
running off the screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them
too? This might be a problem with my web browser because I’ve had this happen before.
Cheers
