On Friday, March 15, we were part of an exclusive charity event held at the Wrigley Mansion in Arizona, hosted by Chicago Cubs manager, Joe Maddon. This event featured live music, great stories and a charity auction benefiting the Special Olympics (Arizona and Illinois) and Maddon’s own Respect 90 Foundation.
But Maddon brought more than his charm, wit and funny stories with him to the event. He also brought with him one of the more exciting auction items of the night — a custom-designed SWAGCYCLE PRO Electric Bike from SWAGTRON®! But this wasn’t an ordinary SWAGCYCLE PRO. It was a special edition, custom designed and signed by Maddon himself.
SWAGTRON is a brand leader in the micro-mobility rideable industry and has been working with Maddon and the Chicago Cubs. In fact, SWAGTRON® was recently named the official hoverboard, eBike and electric scooter brand of the Chicago Cubs and Wrigley Field.
“We’re honored to work with Coach Joe Maddon of a world-class organization like the Chicago Cubs in supporting the life-changing work of the Special Olympics,” says Jason Wakefield, SWAGTRON CMO. “It’s difficult to put into words how important and empowering it is to be able to help so many people realize their athletic potential.”
A big part of SWAGTRON’s mission is helping us live our very best #ElectricLife, where we are encouraged to explore, stay energized for the ride and engage with the world around us. And they’re no stranger to working with charitable organizations. Most recently, SWAGTRON® and Cubs Charity joined forces for the “Giving Is Electric” campaign.

Check out some of their other products, including off-road hoverboards, kids scooters and commuter solutions. But one of their main products that have caught our eye is their Swagger 5 Elite electric scooter You’ve probably seen rental e-scooters out and about — usually in various states of disrepair — but SWAGTRON provides an affordable option for those of us who have asked the question, “Why rent when I can own?”
We’re getting smarter about how we get around town. And electric scooters are the next logical step stage in our “micro-mobility” needs. More than that, though, they’re a fun way to get around town without adding to traffic congestion and pollution.
And maybe we can even talk SWAGTRON into donating a couple Swagger 5 Elites to our next auction as well!
