Public Transport vs Kuma Bikes

A Morning Commute in Dublin



It’s 7:00 am, and the rush begins. My goal is simple: get to work on O'Connell Street by 8:30 am. Living in Dublin 6, this should be a straightforward 5km journey, but as always, the reality of public transport complicates things.


I step outside, join the queue at the packed bus stop, and start my timer. The morning traffic is already a nightmare, with buses crawling through congested streets. The first bus arrives—already full. At least I manage to squeeze on board, unlike some unlucky commuters left behind. Standing shoulder-to-shoulder, the ride feels endless as we inch forward. By the next stop, the bus is so packed it doesn’t even stop. Finally, after 45 minutes of shuffling, I’m on O'Connell Street, frazzled and exhausted.

Fast forward to the next day: I decide to change things up.

This time, I’m using the Kuma S1 Electric Bike, a game-changer in urban commuting.

Instead of setting my alarm for 7:00 am, I wake up at 7:45. No frantic rush to the bus stop. I unlock my Kuma S1, enter the password, and I’m off. The ride is nothing short of serene. Cruising along the Portobello Canal, I’m surrounded by the calm morning air.

The Kuma S1 Low Step is perfect for stylish, comfortable city rides. Powered by a 500Wh Samsung battery, it offers a 100km+ range with a silent Bafang M200 motor delivering 65Nm of torque.

Passing landmarks like St. Patrick’s Cathedral, I track my ride on Strava   and marvel at the beauty of the city, something I’d never notice while packed in a bus. 

With the electric bike’s assistance, I’m effortlessly gliding past traffic jams, always faster than the cars and buses stuck in gridlock.

A Morning Commute in Dublin

7:00 AM – The Rush Begins

My goal is simple: get to work on O'Connell Street by 8:30 AM.

Living in Dublin 6, this should be a straightforward 5km journey—but public transport has other plans.

I step outside, join the packed bus queue, and start my timer. Traffic is already at a standstill.

The first bus arrives—completely full. I manage to squeeze on, but others are left behind.

Standing shoulder-to-shoulder, we inch forward. At the next stop, the bus is so packed it doesn’t even stop.

45 minutes later, I finally reach O’Connell Street. Frazzled. Exhausted. Ready for a better way.
