Electric Urban Commuter Bike
by: Taly Weiss October 26, 2009
The “YikeBike” electric bike
is designed for city journeys of up to 9km, reaching a top speed of 20km/h with zero emission. It weighs only 9.8 kilograms and comfortably folds to 67×56×12 cm to fit into your backpack. A small powerful 1.2 kW electric motor replaces all the traditional mechanics.
The YikeBike currently costs $4860. The hype around all electric urban transportation clearly suggests that if found safe and affordable - we will see many of those around.
See them drive:
