Meet VOOK, the most street-legal sibling to the Go Kart. Designed with a low-hung chassis and two 3000W rear-wheel motors, the VOOK is the most unique way to get from A to B. The electric trike has all the advantages of an e-bike but with a comfortable seat and an extra wheel, and also packs a battery that gives you a 110 mile (180km) range, a touchscreen dashboard monitor to rival anything you’d find on a modern e-bike, and a rear dash-cam that lets you look back in style.

If the VOOK’s aesthetic made you do a double-take, that’s entirely intentional. The folks behind it wanted to create the most dynamic experience you could have behind a pair of handlebars. The contraption has the front half of a low-hanging chopper and the rear half of a hoverboard – piece them together and you’ve got yourself a vehicle that’s bound to grab eyeballs as you cruise down the road at speeds of up to 40mph (65kmh). In the mean time, a durable aluminum frame and off-road-ready tires (on both the front and back) mean you can cruise on asphalt, pavements, dirt-roads, and even on sand.

Lightning-fast acceleration, going from 0 to 100 meters in just 7 seconds!

The VOOK is a beast on the road with its impressive (3,000W nominal / 6,000W peak) combined motor power output and 145 Nm of torque.

Once you let off the gas, it signals the motor brake system, and the motor automatically slows down (like in the case of any other electric scooter), starting to regenerate energy, which converts it back into electrical energy to recharge the battery.

This spiritual successor to the Penny Farthing comes with some impressive stats that serious roadsters will love. The VOOK’s rear brushless motors give it the ability to zip around busy intersections and weave through traffic with smooth and responsive acceleration, while heavy-duty puncture-proof tires unlock the ability to drive anywhere. The VOOK’s low ground clearance does have its own off-road limitations, but it trades that for safety and security, thanks to the low CG and inherent stability of the trike’s three-wheeled format.

Armed with a single seat that quite literally lets you sit back and relax as you ride, the VOOK boasts of 4 different riding modes, going from a Safe that maxes out at 10mph to an Extreme that gives you the full 40mph experience. The mode you’re driving in also affects the VOOK’s range, as does the battery – you can either choose the stock 1860W (30Ah) battery, or upgrade to a 3100W (50Ah) battery for a maximum range of 110 miles. The VOOK’s bundled 12/220V charger juices up your battery in anywhere between 2.5 to 4 hours (depending on which battery option you pick).

With VOOK’s keyless access system, getting started on your ride has never been easier.

Ultimately, riding your VOOK is all about that unique experience. Even with its low-seated design, you get a clear view of what’s ahead of you, and the LCD dashboard is just below eye-level, letting you swipe and tap to choose between modes, see riding stats, battery levels, GPS, and even who’s behind you, thanks to an optional rear-view camera add-on for your VOOK. Right beside the LCD dashboard is also a biometric fingerprint scanner that gives you keyless access to start or lock your trike, and a dedicated “VOOK Smart” app for you phone also lets you configure your trike, check its stats, and even remotely see its location as a nifty security feature. Speaking of security, the e-trike also has a powerful e-bike-grade headlight for driving around at night, as well as a slick tail-light to alert vehicles behind you.

Designed to usher in a new style of urban as well as off-road riding, the VOOK makes one bold promise – to give you a sense of thrill as you commandeer the vehicle from its driving seat. Aside from being designed for a variety of terrains, the electric trike isn’t afraid of bad weather either, with a water-resistant LCD dashboard that can easily shrug off a thunderstorm. The VOOK starts at $2300 and ships in 4 different colors – Atlantic Nigh Blue, Deep Green, Rosso Metis (Red), and Cracked Pepper.

It seems that Zectron’s figured out something most other bike companies haven’t. Simply attaching a motor and battery to a bicycle fulfills the bare minimum requirements, but to go the distance, the actual distance, you need to create a bike that’s smart enough to know when and where to conserve or release energy. With a 350W motor capable of 20mph, an algorithmically optimized battery with a 150-mile range, and a foldable frame that lets you store the e-bike in the trunk of a car, the Zectron e-bike is designed to be the best of all worlds. It’s comfortable to ride on any terrain, comes with multiple riding modes and pedal assist levels, and boasts of a battery that lasts for an entire week thanks to the algorithms that constantly optimize the Zectron’s ride in real-time to give it its staggering 150-mile range.

The origins of the Zectron e-Bike seem surprising – the company was founded more than 60 years ago by renowned American toy maker Wham-O. Its first product was the humble superball, a tiny ball capable of bouncing 5x higher than balls double its size. The spirit of innovation led the company down a rather specific path, making it a force to be reckoned with in the mobility sector, and roughly half a century later, the Zectron e-bike was born. The e-bike’s unique design and build boast of an incredibly stellar range in a deceptively small form factor for an affordable price – the feature trifecta that other e-bikes struggle to nail down.

Two-step Easy Folding – Easily fold up the Zectron bike with just 2-steps for easy storage and carry it on any adventure.

Maximum Comfort Suspension – The dynamic rear suspension keeps the ride comfortable and their anti-shock technology ensures a cloud-like riding experience.

Suspended Seat – Feel the instantaneous response of the ultra-shock absorbency from their interpretation of the seat-stay that suspends the saddle to soak up any jolts from the road giving you a smooth effortless ride.

The secret sauce to the Zectron is a combination of factors that make the bike greater than the sum of its parts. It comes with a foldable magnesium alloy frame that reduces the e-bike’s form factor to nearly a third of its original size. Couple that with the fact that the entire vehicle weighs just 55 lbs (24.9 kilograms), and you’ve got an e-bike that’s easy to carry around with you on the subway, fit in an elevator, or even stash in your car’s boot when not in use. Once folded open, though, you’ve got a comfortable e-bike with a clean design that cleverly hides all its electronic hardware and wires. The e-bike has an adjustable seat that sits right above the dynamic rear suspension, giving you a ride that feels comfortable no matter what terrain you’re on (thanks to that anti-shock technology that gives you a ‘cloud-like’ riding experience), while the ergonomically designed e-bike is designed to accommodate a wide range of riders as tall as 6’5″/195cm, and weighing up to 297lbs or 135kg. A built-in dashboard lets you easily access the Zectron’s multiple riding modes.

Three Riding Modes – The Pedal-Only Mode gives you full control of the pedaling allowing for a good exercise. The Pedal-Assist Mode offers power assist while pedaling ease your biking experience on all kinds of terrains. Or go with Throttle-Only Mode and enjoy riding without a sweat.

Fine-tuned as One – The battery, controller and motor are optimized algorithmically working in synergy to allow riders to enjoy a long range.

The dashboard lets you toggle between the three riding modes on the Zectron. You can either opt for a full-pedal experience (akin to your everyday analog bicycle), a pedal-assisted mode where the motor supplements your riding (with 5 levels of assist to choose from), and a throttle-only mode where the motor takes over a 100% of the riding experience – a feature that’s currently only available to the US audience. The full-throttle mode lets you choose your riding speed too, with a lower-end Eco setting capping off at 10mph, a Normal setting of 15mph, and a Sports setting that lets US riders reach speeds of 20mph. The settings affect the bike’s overall range, although with optimal use, the Zectron’s battery gives you 70 miles of range. However, pair it with the modular external battery that integrates right into the hollow space on the e-bike’s frame and suddenly your range gets doubled to 150 miles, thanks to the two batteries that work in conjunction with one another and are optimized by the Zectron’s expert algorithm.

Other features on the Zectron include the powerful headlight and taillight that work well in the dark, a 7-level Shimano gearbox for a comfortable pedaling experience both on flat roads or inclines, and an add-on anti-theft and GPS features that keep your bike safe and prevent it from ever being stolen.

The Zectron comes in multiple colors, although the metallic iridescent and chameleon colorways are personal favorites. Customers in the EU can grab their own Zectron with a 250W Bafang motor (as per EU guidelines), while US customers are treated to a 350W Bafang motor variant with the added throttle-only feature. Each e-bike ships with a 1-year warranty and local after-sale servicing both in the US and EU. The extra battery pack and anti-theft GPS are both add-on features and enthusiasts can even grab a Zectron Smart Helmet as an accessory, with its own built-in rear light for extra night-time rider visibility!

The post This e-bike’s foldable design and 150-mile range make it a game-changing all-rounder e-bike first appeared on Yanko Design.

Returning back to its roots after building the flagship high-end Nyx e-bike, Nireeka announced the Revenant, a stunning sub $2500 e-bike with a 1000W motor, 50-mile range, and ABS (Anti-lock Braking System).

The Revenant follows Nireeka’s established design style, posturing itself as an incredibly slick, state-of-the-art e-bike for people on a budget. Following a lot of requests from Nireeka’s consumer base, the company outfitted the Revenant with a 1000W Bafang motor, capable of 85 nm of torque and 35mph/56kph max speed. The motor sits against the rear wheel; couple this with the Revenant’s long wheelbase (1,212mm) and chainstay (448mm), and you know that this bike was designed for the thrill of riding with the wind in your hair. Cadence sensors built into the pedals allow the motor to kick in the minute you begin riding (with an option to upgrade to torque sensors for a more natural riding experience), and dual suspension turns everything from city tarmac to uneven roads, moderate trails, and even staircases into smooth sailing. While the Revenant isn’t designed for heavy trail work, Nireeka’s founders Max and Younes Shojaie say it serves rather well as a commuter/mountain bike thanks to the Bafang motor, Shimano Alivio 9-speed drivetrain, Anti-locking braking system, and mid-fat tires.

Enough about the technical details, though. The Revenant, first and foremost, is an affordable e-bike that oozes desirability. The e-bike’s design comes from co-founder and CEO Max Shojaie, an award-winning designer in his own right. The first thing that captures your eye with the Revenant is its frame, made entirely from carbon fiber, and with an edgy aesthetic that’s dominated by straight lines, angular transitions, geometric cross sections, and tight fillets that give the Revenant its cyberpunk appeal. The broad frame houses a removable Samsung battery with an 840Wh capacity, giving the Revenant a solid 50 miles (85 km) of range under regular conditions. With a standard 4A charger, you can juice the battery from 0% to 100% in roughly 6 hours, or overnight.

Fast, Stable and Safe – With its long wheelbase (1,212mm) and chainstay (448mm), this bike is made for speed.

Suspension – With Nireeka’s custom-made front suspension fork and X-Fusion O2 rear shock, you have 140mm travel both front and rear.

ABS Brakes – One of a few companies using the ABS (Anti-lock braking system) on the bicycle.

Torque Sensor/Speed Sensor – The torque sensor senses the force you’re applying to the pedals, so the motor provides the appropriate torque based on that.

Display – The Revenant HMI with a high-contrast LCD display delivers all important information at a glance and can also be read in direct sunlight without difficulty.

Taillight – The embedded taillight is equipped with a Gyro sensor to light up the brake lights when applying the brakes while the running daytime light is always illuminated to help you to be seen during day and night.

Battery – 840Wh battery with Samsung cells. One of the longest ranges in the e-bike industry.

For its price, the Revenant may just be one of the most affordable e-bikes to boast of ABS. Available as a $300 option, riders can opt for front-wheel ABS, powered by Blubrake. The ABS unit sits outside the frame, a design direction that Shojaie went for because he wanted to highlight it rather than hide it away in the frame. The ABS, in short, prevents wheel locking and increases stability. “Bicycles are, by nature, less stable than four-wheeled vehicles”, say the folks at Nireeka. The ABS “reduces [the e-bike’s] total stopping distance”, providing a much more reliable experience while braking as well as steering. The Revenant also comes equipped with a bright taillight and brake lights that use gyro sensors and signals from the brakes to shine when you’re slowing down or stopping abruptly. For riders, there’s also the choice between a default LCD dashboard on the front and a higher-contrast TFT display with a larger screen, available as a $99 upgrade.

The Revenant’s balance between great design, great features, and great pricing is the result of years of work on Nireeka’s part. The company’s been incredibly receptive to feedback from customers over the past 5 years, who’ve always wanted a bang for their buck. “I’m very proud of this design, I think it’s perfect. We’ve had a good amount of time to test this bike, too[…] We’ve been riding it since February, and testing it for a few months now in Canada”, says Max Shojaie. The Revenant is available for preorder in 3 sizes and in white, blue, and red color variants across regular or pearlized finishes, as well as a matte black variant that definitely stands above the rest. The e-bike is priced at a discounted $2,363 USD for the 1000W motor variant, with a lifetime warranty on the carbon fiber frame and a 1-year warranty on the parts and components. Deliveries begin as early as February 2023.

The post With a carbon-fiber frame and a 1000W motor, this might be the most affordable premium e-bike yet… first appeared on Yanko Design.

The ENGWE X26 might have two wheels, but it has the audacity of a pickup truck, with the confidence to conquer any terrain in front of it (asphalt, dirt roads, even mountain trails). Designed for people who take biking seriously, the X26 works equally well on roads as it does off of them… plus, it comes with an electric powertrain that should surely impress a few. And if that isn’t enough, the e-bike sports a dual removable battery system that integrates right into the ENGWE X26’s bold, muscular frame, giving you a bike that’s a clean, mean, riding machine.

Designer: ENGWE Design

Designed to embody power with its brawny yet minimalist frame, the ENGWE X26 comes with a 1000W motor on the outside capable of outputting 750W at any given time. The pedal-assisted bike can hit speeds as high as 31mph and even climb inclines as much as 30%, while those two battery packs give the X26 a range of 62 miles (100 kilometers), making your e-bike perfect for intra-city commutes and even traveling well outside the boundary of the city. The latter is also made easier thanks to the triple suspension system and those 4-inch-thick tires that aren’t scared of irregular terrain, be it a road with potholes, or even a road without asphalt!

Conquer Hills with Ease – A 1000W gives you the comfort to glide over sand and gravel without stop and deal with mud and mountains with ease.

Climb 30% Inclines – The 1000W motor pushes it up hills just like they were flat ground.

Go from A to Z Faster – The 1000W motor gives it a 31MPH top speed, beating other eBikes that only reach 20-30MPH.

Range Up to 62 Miles – The main battery gives you a full 48 miles, while a second swappable battery adds another 14 miles to your trip.

The ENGWE X26 comes with an impressive design that quite literally folds in half to reveal the bike’s concealed battery slot. Your X26 has two batteries to help bump up the range, with a larger 48V19Ah battery right underneath the seat, and a smaller 9.6Ah battery sliding right into the top tube. The main battery slides right into the seat’s slot and provides a bulk of the power needed by the X26. The smaller battery, on the other hand, sits in its removable housing and can be detached when not in use simply by folding the bike in half, exposing the hollow top tube and the battery pack sitting within it.

ENGWE even gives you the option of buying an additional secondary battery that you can swap out when the one in the X26 runs out of charge. This arrangement (which takes barely 2-3 minutes to physically swap batteries) effectively gives you practically a week’s worth of city-commuting without needing to recharge your X26.

Triple Suspension System – Integrated with the solid fat tires for the maximum robust and exciting ride.

3 times more powerful shock absorbance than normal e-bikes.

Other details on the X26 include the SHIMANO 8-speed gearbox that gives you effortless riding whether you’re in the city or outside it, and a triple suspension system, hydraulic braking, and 26×4″ motorcycle-style tires that further make riding more safe and fun. The X26 is uniquely positioned as an e-bike that’s capable of handling it all, so whether you’re using it to get to work or to conquer mountain trails, the motorcycle-grade tires, the heavy-duty suspension, and that 1000W motor have you covered.

Plus, the bike quite literally folds in half, allowing you to chuck it in the boot of your car to carry around to remote locations, be it a camping site or an offroad trail. While riding, the X26 has a small yet pretty visible Polychrome LCD dashboard that gives you access to the riding stats you need. Designed for safe nocturnal riding, the bike comes with headlights and taillights too.

When not in use, the ENGWE X26 folds up to half its size, making it easy to store in a garage or even at home. The overall bike weighs 41 kilograms or 90 lbs, and while that isn’t on the lighter side of the spectrum, it’s worth noting that the X26 is less of a last-mile solution and more of a heavy-duty ‘everywhere machine’. It helps that the ENGWE X26 is competitively priced too, at just $1,599 for its super early bird customers. Grab yours now using the link below.
