The Basics
Cygolite BRIGHT Rear Flasher
Alert drivers to your presence with this BRIGHT 150 Lumen rear flashing LED from Cygolite. The Hotshot features specially designed optics to concentrate the LED toward drivers and recharges easily via USB. It has 6 different patterns, each adjustable, including a daylight flash mode. Multiple mounting options.
2400 Lumen Front Light
Since the Mate’s lights have been delayed for backers, try this super-bright 2400 Lumen front light from Victagen. It features powerful lithium ion batteries which are USB-rechargeable. With 5 modes, you’ll be able to use it for commuting, nighttime, and everything in between!
(faster) 8 Speed Freewheel
The stock freewheel (13-34T) tops out around 25 mph, resulting in a very fast pedaling cadence above that speed. This 8 speed freewheel from DNP features a smaller 11T high gear, meaning you can pedal at 30 mph at a comfortable cadence. Don’t forget the freewheel removal tool below!
Freewheel Removal Tool
If you plan to replace the rear freewheel, you’ll need this removal tool. It fits both the existing Shimano freewheel on the Mate X and the DNP 11-32T freewheel shown above.
Helmet w/ Light (3 colors)
Protect your head with a stylish helmet. This helmet features a built-in visor, vents, and a rear LED for extra visibility. Comes in 3 colors: Black, White, and Walnut!
Rear Rack Bag
Fits the Mate’s rear rack
Ibera Rear Rack Bag
Note: this bag does not fit the Mate rack. You’ll need the Ibera rack (below).
This beast of a bag features rigid bottom panel, quick release points, and LOADS of storage (17L). It’s the most highly reviewed rear rack bag on Amazon. Note: it won’t fit the Mate’s rack (you’ll need an Ibera rack).

Protection
Kryptonite Noose Chain Lock
Due to the unique frame design of Mate bikes, traditional heavy duty D locks aren’t capable of locking the rear wheel and frame to an anchor point. Enter Kryptonite’s NY Noose with hardened 12 mm links and Evolution Series 4 disc lock. This beast of a lock not only gives you incredible security against attacks (Sold Secure Gold rating), but it’s flexibility means you can lock your frame AND rear wheel to non-standard anchor points like streetlight poles and trees.

ABUS Folding Alarm Lock
Keep your bike locked and secure with a legendary ABUS folding lock with alarm. It attaches securely to your frame and emits an alarm if tampered with. For added security, grab a Smart Disc Brake Lock. For more information check out our Ultimate Guide to Locks for E-bikes!
Smart Disc Brake Lock
For an extra measure of security, grab this disc brake lock. Not only does it immobilize the rear tire, but it lets out a 110 db alarm if the bike is jostled. Perfect for scaring away would-be thieves! For more information check out our Ultimate Guide to Locks for E-bikes!
Suspension
Upgraded Rear Shock
Upgrade your rear shock with an adjustable air shock from DNM. This 165 mm air shock replaces the rear shock included with Mate X, which is spring loaded and not adjustable. This shock also features a lock-out in case you want to turn the bike into a hard-tail. Fine tune your rear suspension just to your liking and don’t forget a high pressure shock pump too!
