Jason Kraft
Principal & Head of Sales

Jason is focused on delivering an affordable high-quality electric bicycle conversion kit to the USA consumer market and believes wholeheartedly that 2012 will be the year that the concept of the e-bike comes to life in the minds of the American public. As Principal of E-BikeKit Jason is executing a business plan to take E-BikeKit to the next level of acceptance within the USA bicycle dealer community. As Head of Sales he is in constant communication with E-BikeKit authorized dealers and customers to ensure that the product and service is continually exceeding expectations.

"Most Americans associate bicycles and cycling with exercise. We want to show people that an electric bicycle is a convenient and comfortable mode of transportation. The majority of Americans still can’t comprehend commuting by bike. They don’t see a bicycle as a means of getting from point A to point B. But get them to ride an electric bike just once and they immediately "get it".

"The E-BikeKit Electric Bike Conversion Kit System provides the best quality alternate to expensive complete electric bikes. If you can change a tire on your bicycle, you can convert your own bicycle to an electric hybrid bicycle with the E-BikeKit and save between $400-$4400 for complete e-bikes with comparable power, features and performance."

Brian Fitzpatrick
Principal

"As an eco-friendly consumer and a baby boomer myself I know the value of the electric bike for those in my generation. Growing the company through the education and expansion of our authorized dealer network and a focus on boomers like myself are what I see as keys for successful growth. It's also critical that as a younger company doing business in a lackluster economy that we have the proper financing to deliver a world-class experience for our customers. I'm thrilled to be a part of the E-BikeKit company and I'm here to make sure we make the right business decisions to continue delivering a great product for many years to come"

Patrick Vaccarino
Sales & Service

When he's not servicing E-BikeKit customers, Patrick is perfecting his craft as a professional photographer and artist. As owner of Time Being Photography Patrick is flexing his creativity and skill while also shooting the occasional wedding.

"I love working for a eco-friendly company in a solar powered building. It makes me feel like I'm part of the solution to the current environmental challenges facing us all."

Mark Mahoney
Marketing Manager

With over a decade of experience as an advertising executive, Mark is certain that the market will accept the electric bike and is here to make sure it happens. Mark has an impressive list of former clients in industries like pharmaceuticals, convenience stores, community banks, floor coverings, visitors’ bureaus, resorts and Location Based Services (LBS).

When he's not on Facebook, tweeting or learning how to leverage the latest viral marketing techniques, Mark can be found hiking, biking or paddling around the Lambertville area. He's recently discovered firsthand the pleasures and pains of adventure racing (or maybe it’s the pleasure in the pain) and plans on working his way from a novice sprint racer to a serious competitor.

Mark believes that individual consumers can make a difference in the world with the choices they make. Recycle, Reduce and Reuse are three words Mark uses to guide his own lifestyle decisions and is part of the reason he is excited to be part of the E-BikeKit organization.

"I've seen products come and go but the e-bike conversion system from E-BikeKit is here to stay. The value proposition is undeniable and E-BikeKit is on its way to becoming a nationally recognized brand name synonymous with the very concept of LEVs (light electric vehicles)."

Glenn Silvasy
Master Wheelbuilder

Glenn has over 15 years of experience building bicycle wheels and has worked for and with the local cycling community in the Philadelphia area for the past 20 years. Glenn is in charge of all wheel building activities at E-BikeKit and oversees quality control on wheels built in the New Jersey location. Since joining E-BikeKit in early 2010 Glenn has had a huge impact on the success of the company by ensuring that every wheel is perfect before shipping.

"A properly laced and tensioned wheel is crucial for any bike and that's especially important for an electric bike with a hub motor. E-BikeKit has taken the lead in the electric bike conversion kit space and really sets itself apart from the competition by going the extra mile with regard to wheel building."

David Russo
Wheelbuilder

David has 5+ years in the bicycle business and has built high-end wheels for racing bikes for the past 2 years. David is tasked with building the majority of the wheels and fixing most everything that's broken. He is also responsible for the majority of the assembly and QC testing. A lot of what goes into the final E-BikeKit product is assembled and tested in our PA warehouse and David is responsible for making sure the final product is up to EBK standards.

"Good people, great product and I really appreciate working for a company with such high standards."
