If you’ve owned any kind of adult-sized motorbike before, chances are good that you picked it up in person. Buying it new usually means a dealership experience, while buying used usually means you’re meeting a private seller at an agreed-upon location, looking everything over, exchanging money and a title, and likely being on your way with your new machine.
That’s not the case with Swedish electric motorbike maker CAKE, which ships directly to customers. A freight company will show up with a palleted crate containing your bike inside, and they’ll deposit it where you ask them to. After you inspect the box to make sure there’s no damage, you’ll sign to indicate that you’ve received it, and then you can open the box and start getting ready to ride.
