We had a vast network of vendors in China, which came with its own challenges. We had to manage the vendors and spent a lot of time project managing, QCing, and working through communication challenges. When we approached Xometry, we noticed right away that they gave us a lot of flexibility, especially with our mould tool. Xometry was really in that sweet spot for us. It was helpful to communicate with a partner that really knows engineering and design. The quality and speed from them were just different, which is really important for us because we needed to get the product out this year.<\/p>\n                <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/section>\r\n\n\n\n<p>With Xometry, you can access a range of manufacturing solutions to help you develop initial prototypes, work through the initial stages of concept development, and scale up to high-volume production.

If you need a fast initial batch of plastic products as you start to scale production, consider options like our quick-turn plastic injection molding service.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"xometry-liberates-your-product-development-with-its-horizontal-supply-chain\"><strong>Xometry Liberates Your Product Development with Its Horizontal Supply Chain<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Ideally, a brand should make product design decisions based on the wants and needs of its customer base rather than being guided by the limitations of internal and external shops. As Tran said, \u201cWhy add additional costs by building your own shop when people want to work?\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He continued, \u201cWe want our customers to know that we are putting a lot of effort into building a flexible manufacturing supply chain that isn\u2019t just vertically integrated. There\u2019s no need to vertically integrate manufacturing processes like die casting and injection moulding. Why add additional costs by building your own shop when people want to work?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CEO expressed his hope that Ryvid\u2019s customers would come to know it as a brand they could trust. In addition to creating jobs for workers, Ryvid is also mindful of the environment. \u201cSustainability is a big thing for us,\u201d said Tran, \u201cand we believe that EV companies need to be really efficient in how they manufacture their products.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><div class=\"wp-block-image__wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"610\" height=\"358\" src=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/xometry-supply-chain.svg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21891\"\/><a class=\"wp-block-image__fancy-box-button\" href=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/xometry-supply-chain.svg\" data-fancybox=\"gallery-24284\" data-caption=\"\" aria-label=\"Open full image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/xometry-supply-chain.svg\" class=\"wp-block-image__fancy-box-button-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"><svg class=\"wp-block-image__fancy-box-button-icon\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"18\" height=\"18\" viewBox=\"0 0 18 18\" fill=\"none\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\r\n               <path d=\"M0 2V6H2V2H6V0H2C0.895 0 0 0.895 0 2ZM2 12H0V16C0 17.105 0.895 18 2 18H6V16H2V12ZM16 16H12V18H16C17.105 18 18 17.105 18 16V12H16V16ZM16 0H12V2H16V6H18V2C18 0.895 17.105 0 16 0Z\" fill=\"#092C47\"\/>\r\n             <\/svg><\/a><\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes time to scale up your brand, consider how a horizontally integrated supply chain can help you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Manufacture more sustainably<\/strong> \u2014 New shops can be costly and put an extra strain on the environment. Horizontal supply chains like Xometry remove the need to establish new shops to fabricate each different kind of part, which is especially helpful for products built from multiple manufacturing processes, like the Ryvid Anthem.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cut costs and support small businesses<\/strong> \u2014 Outsourcing work gives opportunities for small businesses, like those found in the Xometry supplier network, to complete your work on an as-needed basis. These temporary orders help keep you from needing to make time-consuming internal investments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Liberate your product design and keep your customers satisfied<\/strong> \u2014 When your supply becomes too vertically integrated, changing your product design for an evolving market can become prohibitively expensive. These shortcuts can restrict the strength of your brand over time and ultimately hurt your bottom line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Xometry, you aren\u2019t subject to the limits of your existing local and international suppliers. We integrate seamlessly with more than 10,000 vetted manufacturing facilities across 22 countries. Engineers, designers, and procurement specialists from growing brand leaders to established members of the Fortune 500 trust Xometry because of our wide-ranging manufacturing capabilities and commitment to high-quality, affordable custom parts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ryvid is set to release its first EV motorbike to customers this summer. Ryvid hinted that its brand isn\u2019t constrained to electric motorbikes alone; there are many different kinds of vehicles that can fit into the micro-electric powersport market. As its product offering expands, Xometry\u2019s horizontal supply chain will be ready to help it scale up to production and again with every new design.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":75,"featured_media":21907,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","c-tag-stories":[2095],"global-tag":[476,580,616,706],"class_list":["post-24284","stories","type-stories","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","c-tag-stories-automotive-en-uk","global-tag-cnc-machining-uk","global-tag-sheet-metal-uk","global-tag-injection-moulding-uk","global-tag-die-casting-uk"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.7 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Ryvid\u2019s Anthem EV Bike Races Through Production | Xometry Pro<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Discover why this innovator in the micromobility powersport space chose Xometry to produce 50% of parts found in its electric motorcycle.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/en-uk\/stories\/ryvids-anthem-ev-motorbike\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Ryvid\u2019s Anthem EV Bike Races Through Production | Xometry Pro\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Discover why this innovator in the micromobility powersport space chose Xometry to produce 50% of parts found in its electric motorcycle.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/en-uk\/stories\/ryvids-anthem-ev-motorbike\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Xometry Pro\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-03-26T11:57:45+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ryvid-motorbikes.jpeg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"2000\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1333\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Estimated reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"9 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/en-uk\\\/stories\\\/ryvids-anthem-ev-motorbike\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/en-uk\\\/stories\\\/ryvids-anthem-ev-motorbike\\\/\",\"name\":\"Ryvid\u2019s Anthem EV Bike Races Through Production | Xometry Pro\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/en-uk\\\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/en-uk\\\/stories\\\/ryvids-anthem-ev-motorbike\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/en-uk\\\/stories\\\/ryvids-anthem-ev-motorbike\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/12\\\/Ryvid-motorbikes.jpeg\",\"datePublished\":\"2023-12-13T11:02:18+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-03-26T11:57:45+00:00\",\"description\":\"Discover why this innovator in the micromobility powersport space chose Xometry to produce 50% of parts found in its electric motorcycle.\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/en-uk\\\/stories\\\/ryvids-anthem-ev-motorbike\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-GB\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/en-uk\\\/stories\\\/ryvids-anthem-ev-motorbike\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-GB\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/en-uk\\\/stories\\\/ryvids-anthem-ev-motorbike\\\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/12\\\/Ryvid-motorbikes.jpeg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/12\\\/Ryvid-motorbikes.jpeg\",\"width\":2000,\"height\":1333,\"caption\":\"Ryvid motorbikes\"},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/en-uk\\\/stories\\\/ryvids-anthem-ev-motorbike\\\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/en-uk\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Stories & Case Studies\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/en-uk\\\/stories\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":3,\"name\":\"Ryvid\u2019s Anthem EV Bike Races Through Production With Xometry&#8217;s Horizontal Supply Chain\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/en-uk\\\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/xometry.pro\\\/en-uk\\\/\",\"name\":\"Xometry Pro\",\"description\":\"Knowledge &amp;
