The Matra MS1 Electric Bike – Newest fashion electric bike

This could be a great commuting machine, it’s an electric powered bike designed by the French company Matra.The aluminum frame hybrid weighs in at just 40 kg (with batteries) and features 100 mm suspension forks and 400 mm front disc brakes up front, plus regenerative braking to extend the battery life. Recharging time is estimated at 3 — 6 hours. The MS1 starts via a magnetic card swiped through the LCD display on the handlebars (which also indicates remaining battery power and speed) and an electric alarm is included along with LED lights for night-time commuting. Another notable feature often omitted from both motorcycle and bicycle design is the ability to adjust the height and depth of the saddle and handlebars.Now this bike should be available for sale in Europe, but no word on whether it’ll make it to the States. It will probably be priced around $3500 – 5000$.
