Bikeworld, dedicated to providing a one-stop solution for modern day urban mobility, has just opened in Mdina Road, Żebbuġ.

At Bikeworld, the objective is to keep clients mobile with a minimal environmental impact. They make it their mission to raise awareness and promote the adoption of new electric transport for a better Malta.

Imagine how much time you could save on your daily commute if you had to switch to a motorbike or a scooter. Picture yourself cruising around the island, experiencing the open air, with the wind brushing along your face, and being totally immersed in your surroundings.

“We understand that change is not easy, and there are many concerns, especially by those who never rode a motorbike before,” a spokesperson for Bikeworld said. 

“Our team is dedicated to offer services and support to help you make the right choice.
