Wow! Checkout this new futuristic electric bike from the makers of the Smart car: The Smart Ebike
Here is a wild ride! An electric trike that is very stylish and powerful. Not sure how practical but definitely a work of art.
Tommy Bahama electric bikes? Yup they are Pedego cruiser ebikes with some added Tommy Bahama flare. They will be debuting at the new Laguna Beach store.

Here is a video of Portland Oregon’s mayor Sam Adams learning about and riding an ebike:
Is this the future of electric bikes? Here is a “bubble” electric recumbent bike from Clive Sinclair. Would you like to try one?
Here is a video from Best Buy that is mainly an ad for Best Buy but it has some good points about electric bikes. It’s worth a watch.
WHoa?! These are some wild looking futuristic bikes! These bikes are from the international Seoul Cycle Design Competition 2010. Some of them are electric bikes. I like the “serious beach bum” bike 🙂
The TwoQuater is a cool folding electric bike that can fold to a quarter of it’s size. It also can recharge it’s batteries while cruzing downhill.
That’s it for right now. I will continue to add more as I come across them.
