Employer information
Magnet Motos was founded in 2020 with the objective of making electric motorcycles accessible to a wider market. Since that time we've been a driving force behind the huge uptake of road and off-road electric motorcycles, which continue to evolve at pace. Our priority is to fully understand what each customer wants from a bike, so that we can make a recommendation that best fits their need and budget. Service and support is critical to the process, which is why we service and repair everything we sell. To that end we keep a large inventory of parts so that we can achieve quick turnaround times, as we appreciate the importance of keeping our customers on the road. All motorcyclists share a passion for two wheels and we strive to make the overall ownership experience part of that pleasure.
