Made in the Waikato. Built for the World.
At FTN Motion, we’re leading a quiet revolution - rethinking how urban transport should feel, function, and flow.
From Wellington Roots to a Waikato Future
FTN Motion was born in Wellington - a city rich in urban culture, a vibrant start-up scene, progressive investors, and a perfect testbed for an electric commuter bike like the Streetdog.
But when it came time to build, scale, and export, space in the capital became a challenge. We needed room to grow and a base better suited for manufacturing. So we made the move to Hamilton.

Why Hamilton? It’s Just Smart Business.
Hamilton gave us more than just space - it gave us momentum.
Here, we found more commercial property options, logistics infrastructure with direct access to major transport routes and ports, and a strong network of local manufacturing partners across CNC machining, fabrication, tube bending, and automotive painting.
It’s a region where innovation is tangible, and collaboration happens at pace.

Built Differently. Built Locally.
Every Streetdog is now designed and hand-built right here in Kirikiriroa Hamilton. Each one is custom-made to order - from colours and decals to seats, tyres, and accessories. No two Streetdogs are the same. What you ride is uniquely yours.
There’s a lot of soul in what we do. In a world increasingly driven by automation and outsourcing, we believe in a more personal approach - where efficiency meets originality, and craftsmanship still matters.
FTN Motion is a New Zealand-wide company with a tight-knit team working together from across the country, making Hamilton the ideal location for our headquarters and manufacturing hub.
