Rider Story | Three Winters Strong: How Mart’s PVY Z20 PRO Conquers Snow, Saves Cars, and Unlocks Tiny Towns

For three years and through countless snowy commutes, Mart Leet has relied on his PVY Z20 PRO to do what most bikes wouldn’t even attempt—ride year‑round. As his first PVY (and soon to be joined by a MAX on order), this foldable e‑bike has all but replaced his car, which now sits idle except for hauling cargo. Its compact foldability and dependable motor have made it the perfect travel companion, allowing Mart to explore little towns on vacation without being confined to car roads.
