Campaign

53 Docker bikes are boxed and ready to ship.

Help us unlock the second container — on dockerbikes.com.au.

Docker is not an idea looking for funding. The factory is chosen, the order is paid, the import approval is granted, and the first 53 standard-colour Docker bikes are ready. First deliveries from late October 2026. This campaign unlocks 120 Docker bikes in founder colours — built for the second container end of December 2026 if we reach $220,000.

· 53 Docker bikes built

· Leaves the factory in 3 weeks

· Import approved

The campaign

Pre-orders open on dockerbikes.com.au.

Raised amounts and founder counts appear here from real paid reservations — never estimates. Goal: $220,000. Every reservation and every $5 helps us build the next container.

Branding you can already hold.

The Docker mark on the front light grille — Bolt and Harbour. Real parts, real finish. Studio bike shots follow as the machines land.

Founder editions

120 Docker bikes. Colours founders pick.

These colours were chosen by founders. This production run is the only one built in them. These are not the standard finishes on the first 53.

Founder editions ship in the second container — end of December 2026. Separate from late October first-container deliveries.

Choosing the factory

On the floor in Shanghai.

We chose a manufacturing partner by standing in the booths — inspecting frames, asking hard questions, and meeting people who build bikes for real. China Cycle 2026, Shanghai.

Docker+

Legal on the road. Unleashed off it.

Docker+ is a real upgrade on Bolt, Harbour, and Heritage — new display plus firmware unlock, $390 early bird (normally $490). Not a fourth model. Private property and off-road only.

  • Display unit + firmware upgrade — about fifteen minutes. A real capability step, not a sticker.
  • As delivered: 250W · 25 km/h · road legal every state.
  • With Docker+: up to 55 km/h · private property and off-road only.

Founders

Every founder gets a number.

First name and suburb, in the order they arrived — bike reservation or $5 support. This wall stays forever.

Founder 001 is still available.

Every reservation and every $5 lands here — first name and suburb only, in arrival order. No invented names. The wall fills when real founders arrive.

Updates

From the team.

Updates land here as the campaign moves — before social, when it matters.

Join the founders.

Every real backer lands on this wall — first name, suburb, forever.
