Bike is a futuristic remake of the best personal transportation ever, the bicycle.
This concept integrates all the necessary
parts into a clean and dynamic frame design that redefines the term Bike.
It represents a bridge between yesterday
bicycles and tomorrow’s new solutions to daily commuting problems. Bike is an electric bicycle for the
daily commuter.
It doesn’t matter what kind of bike configuration
you use, with or without battery, Bike is a substitute for all the polluting vehicles.
The design intends to be futuristic in
aesthetics and ethics, as a symbiosis of form and technology.
You can choose the configuration you want,
using big 2.3” tires for mountain bike days, or slick tires for an everyday
use.
The bike is equipped with a 250w electric
motor that inside has an integrated 10 velocities hub, which means that you can
use it without the electric assistance like a normal geared bike. It has one
lithium ion battery, which is located in the middle of the bike, near the
gravity center. This battery is integrated and easy to remove. You can remove
the battery and use the bike as a normal bicycle, without a heavy weight on it.
The hub has ten velocities integrated, that you can switch with the shifter in
the handlebar.
Powered assisted pedaling range up to 70 –
80 Km and the power range of the engine alone raise up to 40 km. It can be
fully charged in two hours.
To
recharge, the battery can be removed, or simply plugged into the wall via a
conventional socket. Alternatively the battery can be charged ‘on the go’ with
the regenerative braking function whilst braking downhill.
The bike uses 26” wheels and hydraulic
brakes. The frame is made of aluminum 6061 tubes with ABS plastic parts to
cover the frame tubes.
Whilst
traveling riders can access important information such as projected range,
battery capacity and power assist levels via an integrated Smartphone app,
mounted in a removable case.
Bike is the way to both preserve our environment and keep healthy.
