What Happened to Pedal Me After Dragons’ Den?

Pedal Me appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2019, Series 16 Episode 14. The business was a electric cargo bikes taxi services. They secured investment from Touker Suleyman on the show. The business is still active today.

The Pitch

Ben Knowles, Robert Sergeant and Chris Dixon walked into the Den in 2019 with a electric cargo bikes taxi services. They were asking for £100,000 in exchange for 45% of the business.

The pitch landed well enough in the Den that at least one Dragon decided to back it.

The Deal

A deal was struck on the show. Touker Suleyman offered £100,000 for 45%, and Ben Knowles, Robert Sergeant and Chris Dixon accepted.

It’s worth noting that Dragons’ Den deals agreed on camera often go through further negotiation off-screen. Some complete as shown; others are renegotiated or never finalise at all. The company’s subsequent trading history is the clearest indicator of what actually happened.

What Happened After the Show

Pedal Me is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. The business has now been trading for around 3 years since the pitch.

Is Pedal Me Still Available?

Yes. The Future Vehicles Company Limited appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
