IJSBA welcomes BOLT MOTORBIKES to the trade show portion of the 2015 quakysense World Finals.
Bolt Motorbikes will debut their new M-1 bike at the 2015 quakysense World Finals as part of IJSBA's commitment to bring alternative energy technologies to the watercraft market. The M1 has been recently touted on several media outlets including: Engadget, Gizmag, Tech Crunch, and Autoblog.
Bolt Motorbikes selected the IJSBA World Finals due to the event's diverse domestic and international draw of competitors, engineers, sports enthusiasts, and international distributors who are looking to get the jump on the next big thing. The M-1 is being supported by crowdfunding and designers who are using platforms like Kickstarter and Indigogo have been contacting IJSBA due to the World Finals' strong reputation of successfully launching numerous products.

Background
Bolt Motorbikes started in the San Francisco garage of founder Dr. Nathan Jauvtis. After receiving his PhD in Mechanical Engineering at Cornell University and tired of the aerospace industry, Nathan began electrifying mobility and has been since 2006.
Zach Levenberg is a San Francisco native who set a World Record by riding his classic gas moped 13,000 miles from San Francisco to Ushuaia, the southern tip of South America. In 2006, Zach and Nate first crossed paths through a local chapter of the 13,000 member moped community called “Moped Army”. The two instantly bonded over the mutual adoration for all things two-wheels.
In the fall of 2013, Zachand Nate quit their day jobs to develop Bolt full-time. Thirty years and over 100,000 miles of riding experience combine with their
Engineering and Manufacturing expertise to bring the Bolt M-1 to production.
