Fall 2005 InGear

Mario Artola bought his bike from EcoTec 2 years ago. He is an agricultural engineer in Jinotepe, Carazo, Nicaragua, and has to travel 12km daily to his work site. When Mario uses his bike instead of taking the bus he saves 12 Cordabas daily, which translates into 360 Cordobas a month.

He has also referred his 12 employees to EcoTec where they have bought bikes. He has been very satisfied with his bike, only having minimal expenses for new tires and grease over the last two years. Mario is now looking to purchase a second bike for himself.
