Contract Maintenance and Equipment Rentals
Revolution Rickshaws was established in 2005 to set industry standards in the manpowered transportation industry. RR continues to focus on increasing value delivered to its customers. Our comprehensive preventative maintenance, on-street support, and midtown parking programs have enabled our corporate customers and pedicab practitioners to maximize time spent creating value.
Freight-Trike Leasing
May be you're one of many Manhattan or even Brooklyn businesses frustrated the local logistics misery involved in operating your enterprise. Costs of operating a gas-guzzling motor van, truck, or auto in Manhattan or Brooklyn eat into your margins—not to mention your brand and your brain! Freight trikes provide users an eco-logical local logistics, delivery, and outdoor-advertising solution—all in one! RR trike leasing programs include convenient garaging near Penn Station, on-street support and service during business hours, regular maintenance, and even consulting to help your program succeed. Of course, employee fitness rises, too!
Preventative Maintenance Programs
Watch this local TV news video and see first hand the success of City Harvest's freight-trike program, which has resulted in its retiring one of its gas-guzzling trucks. Their food rescue program via its three trike trucks transfers effectively almost half a million pounds of food a year in Manhattan and serves as a model for urban enterprises keen to promote the health of employees, customers, shareholders—and even New York City—while eco-logically achieving its bottom-line goals.

Cycles Maximus Equipment
The equipment of choice at Revolution Rickshaws is the indestructible Cycles Maximus chassis. With its modular design, the C.M. chassis may be fitted with a three-person pedicab body, two different cargo bodies, a large billboard body, or a self-build frame enabling custom creations. These top-grade man-powered and electric-assist (two types) trikes deliver top pedal-power performance.
Revolution Rickshaws served as the U.S. agent for C.M. until production was suspended in 2009.
