Shenzhen Dayu Zhixing Technology

Shenzhen Dayu Zhixing Technology Co., Ltd., which operates under the brand name DYU, is a developer and manufacturer of electric bicycles. The company was established in 2014 and is headquartered in Shenzhen, China. DYU is a brand created by F-wheel, a high-tech enterprise launched in 2012 by former staff from well-known international companies like Huawei and Baidu.

The company focuses on the research, development, and sales of intelligent lithium-ion battery-powered bicycles and scooters, targeting the market for short-distance urban commuting. Its business model follows a dual-drive approach, combining a German design team with a Chinese supply chain to produce its electric vehicles. Revenue is generated through the sale of its products via online channels, including its official website and Amazon, as well as through partnerships with major offline retailers such as Costco, Sam's Club, Carrefour, and Myer. DYU strategically entered overseas markets in 2017 and now ships over 500,000 units annually to more than 60 countries, with a significant focus on European and American markets.

DYU offers a range of electric bicycles, including foldable, urban, mountain, and fat-tire models, with a notable emphasis on foldable e-bikes which constitute over 50% of their offerings in Europe and the United States. A key product is the DYU D3F, a compact, 14-inch wheeled e-bike weighing 38 lbs, featuring a 240W motor and a 360Wh battery. The V1 model includes front and rear disc brakes, a 36V brushless motor, and can be equipped with a basket and a children's chair, supporting a load of up to 120KG. Many of DYU's bikes, such as the D2 and A5 models, feature smart capabilities, allowing riders to control and monitor the bike via a smartphone app, including a digital locking system. The products are designed to be lightweight and portable; for instance, the T1 model is made of magnesium alloy and can be lifted with one hand. The company holds over 100 global patents and has received nearly 40 domestic and international patents and awards.
