Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer and Stajvelo are collaborating. The Group and the Monegasque brand have introduced a new way to explore Monaco, with four electric bikes at Monte-Carlo Beach and two at the Hotel Hermitage Monte-Carlo.
Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer now offers high-end electric bikes for riding through the Resort, available at the Monte-Carlo Beach and Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo. Six bikes are currently available. This eco-friendly service not only promotes environmental consciousness but also provides a unique way for visitors to explore the city and experience a different side of Monaco—highlighting its niche industrial sector for foreign guests.
Thierry Manni, founder of Stajvelo and uncle of Formula 1 driver Charles Leclerc, is a seasoned cyclist and tech enthusiast. Since establishing his brand in 2017, he aims to blend beauty with performance. Highly proud of his homeland, he plans to assemble nearly 400 bikes this year at his Monaco workshop, which will then be shipped globally, including to Dubai and the US. These bikes display the Principality's red and white flag and can be personalised, similar to those from Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer.
Three questions for Thierry Manni
How does Stajvelo stand out among the many bike brands?
Thierry Manni: The Stajvelo teams focus on designing various bikes that are personalised, high-performing, and safe. They carefully select the components to ensure a distinctive riding experience.
What is "made in Monaco" at Stajvelo?
Thierry Manni: Our bikes are developed in Monaco, with some frames produced in Italy and Asia, then painted by our partner craftsmen. The motors are Italian, but we remain dedicated to assembling all our bikes in Monaco.
Is Charles Leclerc an ambassador for the brand?
Thierry Manni: Charles Leclerc has been using a Stajvelo since it was launched. He is part of our history and shows interest in our growth. We are honoured to have his support.
