The word OTIVIA is a derivative of the Latin words Otium (Best) and Via (Way). OTIVIA came from a dream of having a hard-shelled lockable case for a recumbant bicycle. After the Otivia Cargo Cache was developed, more products concerning bicycles were added. OTIVIA is now a growing company that promotes alternative transportation. We also service and repair electric bicycles and scooters, as well as any other strange human powered conveyances. We can meet your needs for mechanical engineering, limited fabrication and prototypes. Human/electric hybrid vehicles are our specialty and we can provide complete design and/or analysis for everything from energy efficiency to handling stability Otivia is focused on the mobility side of bicycles and other human powered or light electric vehicles. We believe that the only long term solution for human mobility lies in dynamic increases in efficiency. For example, here is a picture of Sam Whittingham in his super efficient streamliner passing thru the timing gates at 81 miles per hour, and all under his own power. Several investors have now confirmed that the company is on the right track.

We are located in beautiful Boulder Colorado - a bicycle friendly community backed up against the Rocky Mountains. The local climate allows for bicycling most of the year. We use our bikes for essentially all daily errands and transportation needs. Our team is intimately knowledgeable about the needs and desires of daily-user/urban cyclists.
