electric kickbike 'pipegun #1' by TOZZ is ready to roam the streets in style

pipegun #1 is characterized by its raw looking metallic body

founded in 2021 by emre kuvvetli and burak kazar, TOZZ’s aim to create an urban, electric kickbike takes shape with the dynamic pipegun #1, or PG1. the bike definitely stands out for its raw looking stainless steel body, signature ‘wishbone’ design, red salt tracer BMX tires and its four square LED front lights.

‘e-mobility products in the market are designed and developed to move people from point A to point B with less consumption of energy and time. these are great specifications for commuting and go with the flow – or usually rush – of the city. however most of them are designed to fulfill the requirements and still need some seasoning to be more fun and even offbeat. we removed that secret seasoning from our design cellar and created pipegun #1,’ says burak kazar.

the four square front LEDs is one of the key elements of the kickbike

the bike is available in a 250w and a 500w powerback option

the vibrant electric bike comes in two powerpack options available for pre-order: the 250W / 45Nm motor and the 500W / 60Nm option. these hub motors are installed into the rear wheel with a mechanical disc brake. 

‘pipegun #1 design refers to urban sports like BMX and skateboarding as a way of moving in the city by outshining the overall “gray” mood. minimal design, material and parts choice make this a unique product. no matter if you are riding aggressively in the city or cruising and enjoying the warm breeze at the beach in the afternoon, eyes will follow you while having lots of fun in style,’ explains designer emre kuvvetli.
