ABOUT US
How it All Started
In 2011, Huib Van de Griisparde founded Kibo Bikes to provide safe and reliable mobility across Africa. His vision was to create motorcycles built for the tough East African terrain.
By 2017, Kibo launched the K150, designed in the Netherlands and assembled in Kenya, followed by the K160 and K250, which offered greater power and performance.Â
What we are about
To be Africa’s leading provider of safe, reliable motorcycle mobility, built for the continent’s realities.
To design and deliver purpose-built motorcycles for institutions, businesses and riders across Africa.
K – Know-how – We deeply understand African operating realities and design solutions that work in practice, not just in theory.
I – Impact – We focus on tangible results, not promises – improving safety, reliability, efficiency and livelihoods for the people and organisations we serve.
B – Boldness – We take calculated risks and challenge conventions when it matters. We innovate and adapt to build a stronger, more resilient company.
O – Ownership – We take responsibility for our products, our decisions, our service quality and our long-term sustainability. Ownership is the foundation of trust and integrity.
