MOBEO – Reinventing Bicycle Parking for More Sustainable and Secure Mobility
MOBEO is reimagining the bike shelter. Designed to meet the growing demand from businesses, institutions, and communities for secure bike parking, the MOBEO 6 shelter offers a practical, durable, and functional solution to protect bicycles from theft and bad weather.
Design That Serves Mobility
Thanks to its compact format, occupying only half a parking space, the shelter integrates easily into urban environments.
Its geometry has been designed to accommodate up to six bicycles of all sizes, including electric bikes and those equipped with a child seat, thanks to generous vertical clearance. The two-tier bike rack optimizes space and prevents handlebar overlap. The ground clearance allows rainwater drainage while helping to regulate the internal temperature.
Customizable vinyl finishes ensure visual harmony with any type of location or clientele.
Functionality and Ease of Use
Access to the shelter is simplified through an intuitive mobile app, allowing users to unlock it with a single tap on their smartphone. This connected management system provides efficient and secure access control for both users and infrastructure managers.
In addition, the shelter’s design, with its smooth aluminum sheet and sloped roof, prevents snow buildup and ensures easy opening in all seasons.
Optionally, the shelter can be equipped with charging outlets to encourage the use of electric bikes.
Materials and Durability
Manufactured and assembled locally in Quebec, the shelter is made of a hot-dip galvanized steel structure and anodized aluminum panels. The aluminum sheet door, both lightweight and strong, enhances security and makes opening easier. The entire unit offers optimal protection against theft and vandalism while being perfectly suited to the harsh climate conditions of North America.
A Solution for a Greener Future
In short, MOBEO offers a solution that combines accessibility, functionality, and durability. The innovation lies in the compact design of the shelter, which optimizes urban space while offering capacity for six bikes.
Furthermore, the integration of technologies such as mobile app unlocking and electric bike charging options, combined with local manufacturing, positions MOBEO as a key player in the transition toward greener and more efficient urban mobility.
The MOBEO 6 shelter is not just a parking space, but a true infrastructure designed to encourage and facilitate daily cycling.
