I have no illusion that I may ever see this in person, but the claimed specs are pretty amazing as far as electro bikes are concerned.




And what I can't really figure out is why it would need a clutch lever, if an electro bike really would never need a clutch? Me thinks this may be a trick prototype that doesn't actually work!

Maybe the other control is handlebar mounted rear brake?

the front styling is horrendous. and the smiley face tail light is weak.


but just because it is electric does not mean it does not have gears, if i am not mistaken...
