The magic happens in the details. We build every Blix bike with an obsessively high level of attention to details, allowing us to create a utility-friendly ebike with high-performance components for any riding conditions, without sacrificing a visually compelling design.
Since the very beginning, we've believed in the importance of making ebikes with an incredibly user-friendly design. Every aspect and concept of the bike has been designed with the user in mind, created by the voice of the thousands we've met and talked to over the years. It's a bike from you, for you.
We pride ourself with building ebikes with a sharp focus on smart safety features that protect you, your loved ones, and your bike when riding out in the wild.
Ride safe with smart safety features such as a built-in brake light that automatically lights up when you brake, automatic power cut-off when you brake, and puncture resistant tires with Kevlar technology.
Great performance is key for fun riding. We build every Blix with a high-capacity long-range battery for long happy rides, a powerful motor for the steepest hills, and intuitive pedal assist and throttle for easy and fun riding.
The Packa Genie features a 48V dual battery system with an incredible 1,228Wh total capacity, using high-quality 18650 cells that gives you up to 40 miles with a single battery and 80 miles per charge with dual batteries and 25,000 miles of battery lifetime.
The powerful rear motor provides 750w of continuous power output, and even higher peak output during short periods when needed - optimized for heavy loading and steep hills.
The dual battery system automatically uses both to ensure you never have to stop when one battery runs out, giving you twice the range for long riding with heavy loading.
Control your entire ride with the display by choosing between 1-5 levels of pedal assist power, check your battery life, speed and trip distance. Or charge your phone or speaker while you're at it.

United StatesThis is the most amazing bike ever. I’m a dad with 5 boys, this thing rocks. I can ride the grocery store with two kids on the back and still have room for our groceries! It’s fast and smooth and easy to ride!
First, I am very pleased with the bike. I now have > 1000 miles on it in 4 1/2 months.Hard to beat the quality, features, and Indiegogo price combo! As an engineer, I am a perfectionist and detail oriented, so here are all the details, good and bad. The Indiegogo and Blix shipping info was very transparent. Everything went according to schedule. However, I was sent the wrong color (blue vs white). Carson Benjamin was very helpful in getting it turned around. Overall delay was about three weeks. The white Packa when delivered had suffered some brake rotor damage. I sourced the identical Tectro rotor at my local bike shop. The changeout was easy. The rest of the assembly went very well. Overall, documentation and online instructions were good. There was only one error in the assembly documentation. The headlight wire polarities were wrong. Easily fixed with a voltmeter. Operationally, I have a short list of things which could be better. I don't know if they are inherent in the design, or due to something else (like me!). 1. The electric motor makes a clickety-clack noise internally quite independent of the freewheel mechanism. It repeats once per wheel revolution.It gets quieter under cool, humid conditions, and louder under hot and dry conditions. Noise is the same whether coasting, or under load. 2. The headlight tends to change position, and needs to be adjusted frequently. That might be my fault, and I will try to tighten it up. 3. When you let go of the handlebars between 12 and 20 mph, the front wheel/ handlebars will oscillate, becoming stable when gripped again. I don't know if that is inherent in a cargo bike with extreme rear weight bias. I did not see any difference in the issue when the bike was loaded with 120 lb of cargo, or unloaded (150 lb rider in both cases). 4. In the rain, moisture creeps around the glass front of the display panel, causing it to blur. It clears up rapidly as the bike dries out. On the excellent side, the headlight and taillight are bright and totally adequate for night usage. I thought I would have to buy aftermarket units, but these are very good.The brakes and derailleur adjustment are straightforward. The rear brake caliper does have to be demounted for some adjustments, but the outcome is never in doubt. The bike is very stable, and corners well and predictably at high speeds.The largest cargo to date is 4 solar panels with a weight of about 160 lbs, resting on the running boards, 2 per side, dimensions 56" X 34" X 2". Handling was good at that weight in calm conditions, but it is clear caution is needed for such a cargo in the wind!! The optimum combinations of gears, pedal assist and hand throttle are easily arrived at.,and the controls are nicely placed from an ergonomic standpoint.. It looks like the published energy efficiency numbers are about right. I ride 10 miles per day on average, and typically use 0.15 Kilowatt-hours in the process, which works out to 1.05 Kw-h for a 70 mile range. I use pedal assist level 3 all the time, and my commute is mostly flat with one long shallow hill, and I do pedal vigorously. I submit this hoping it will help on improving an already excellent bike!
United StatesWe bought the new white Blix Packa dual battery and added a baby seat, VIP section and cushions - perfect set up for our 3 year old and 7 year old to join Daddy on rides to the beach or down the bike path. This bike is AMAZING - a car replacement if you will. Easy to ride, stable and safe, and fun as all get out. We had a local bike shop do the final assembly - budget 1 hour with all the accessories. If I could give this bike 6 stars, or 10 stars, I would. Enjoy!
United StatesDelivery took 3 months. Assembly was pretty east, but I was not confident I did it well. Took it to a bike shop for adjustments to brakes, front fork/handle bars, and tires. One tire exploded when they pumped it up. I am still very nervous about the brakes when I go down hills...doesn't feel like they are tight enough or are worn down already. Aside from that, we love riding around the neighborhood. Makes trips to the park and school so much more fun and fast. We get a lot of questions from other families too. I do recommend the Packa, but really wish assembly and the brakes were easier/safer.
United StatesThe Aveny arrived perfect. The Packa however had the rivers broken off for one of the front fender brackets, and was missing the screws for the fender support bars to the frame. But love the bikes!
