Traditionally, the midlands has been the hub of the British motorcycle industry with Triumph, Norton, BSA, Royal Enfield and Velocette all having established factories in this area. And now there is a new name to add to the list, Maeving. Based in Coventry, this start-up business was formed in 2017 by Seb Inglis-Jones and Will Stirrup with the intention of creating a retro-styled British-built electric bike with swappable batteries to take on the Chinese-built competition.
