This bicycle, with an interesting shape, without belt, folding and totally “green” has the “secret” of directly transforming electricity using the alternator connected to the bicycle crank. Each time we pedal, more energy is generated which is then stored in a battery, which in turn is used to start the engine.
Another interesting detail is that this bike automatically switches speed. Yes, you read well, automatic speed change!
The photo bike has some interesting features:
- Autonomy of 30 km only with the engine, being able to exceed this limit if the user pedals.
- The battery recharges as you pedal or lock.
- Sensors that monitor the terrain and adjust engine power when needed.
A video of this bike in action can be seen below ...
PS: The name is no less interesting - “Footloose"
