husqvarna e go electric bike

presented at the frankfurt motor show 2011, the ‘e-go’ electric bicycle is a prototype by italy-based manufacturers husqvarna, conceptualized as a human-powered alternative to electric motorcycles. weighing 80-kilograms (176 pounds), the ‘e-go’ is a single-seater designed for urban commuters and first-time bikers. it retains the side panels and styling of the company’s motorcycle models, in a single-sided double pipe front end design that features 17-inch aluminum wheels. described as ‘self-supporting’, the seat is central to an streamlined and aggressive-looking but nonetheless seemingly freefloating profile that stretches towards the rear of the bike. the company has not yet released details on expected cost or availability.
