it’s got a bit of mini-pickup truck vibes
I can just envision someone riding in the front with an LMG in a mini-reverse-technical configuration

Looks heavy. Reminds me of an old Roman chariot, like this oughta be making loops around the Hippodrome with your LMG idea
My “standard” aluminum frame DIY e-MTB weighs like 70 lbs, this thing looks like it has a steel frame so I bet it’s at least double that. I’d hate for the battery to run out of juice mid-ride, a 1% incline would feel like a mountain.
Still there is a rather large area for the battery to be in. In combination with some newer batteries, it could work
Is there a way to visually differentiate a steel or aluminum frame in a picture like this?
Fairly impossible for newer bikes, anything that looks like it came from the 80s is probably steel, even if it’s recent
Yea, looks like they do only custom bikes for mostly heavy duty applications. One of them looks like it’s made to transport sheets of glass for example, looks like a lot of their business is building custom bikes for craftspeople that need to transport more than a few groceries. They are definitely heavier than a normal cargo bike, but you’ll probably not notice much of a difference thanks to the whole electric pedal support (as far as I know only speed is regulated, not torque or acceleration, so this thing will easily get to and cruise at about 25 km/h just like a lighter cargo bike will)
that’ll be 2 bajillion dollars
can’t find pricing on the site, but I’d guess in the $10k-20k price range
car money for a bike that’s just fucking stupid
bikes arent subsidised
I saw one used pre-pandemic for $260. I wish I’d bought it on the spot.
Is this just a concept or is there production?
Curious about specs and price.
added links to the site in the body
Jesus it’s powered and has suspension.
I’d love a bucket bike like one of these, but I just can’t see paying 10-15k for a bike someone can just pick up and throw in their truckbed.
Would be nice if money was no worry though.
I know it’s renderite but really bold choice to forego any braking on the front there
there’s disc brakes on all wheels though?
and I don’t think it’s a render tbh
beaten on both fronts, dang. Brake discs on the inside and apparently it’s an envanCorven
it’s real - updated the body with link
That light will be useless with any tall cargo.
Sweet bike otherwise.
