STACYC Bike Makita Battery Adapter
ALTAY Custom Plastics Stacyc Bike Makita Battery Adapter designed and printed for hours of riding and big savings. The story of the idea, design, and production of the adapter for young riders everywhere.
Last spring, a client requested a battery adapter for a STACYC (electric bike) that his 2-year-old son had been learning to ride.
He wasn’t impressed with the price tag on replacement STACYC batteries, and working in the trades had provided him with numerous Makita cordless drill batteries. He wanted us to figure out a way for him to use those Makita batteries on the bike. ALTAY Custom Plastics designed and printed a slip-in Makita battery adapter. Rather than having to buy more STACYC batteries at retail price, he was able to buy the adapter for cheaper and utilize his Makita batteries. It has led to hours of quick charging and riding for his son, and it has been a perfect fit.
As part of the agreement we reached, ALTAY Custom Plastics was able to produce a unit for him and not charge for the design time because of the existing market of riders. ALTAY Custom Plastics developed a path for the adapter to be sold online and is able to charge the same price the original client had paid. We pride ourselves in adding unique value to peoples’ lives at a fair price.
