Turn Your Bike To a E-Bike in Minutes

As all other forms of transport seem to be turning to electricity, it is only right that the bicycle does as well. GeoOrbital has produced a wheel that can be added to the bike to take the strain out of the morning commute. A ride of 30 miles can be powered by the lithium battery and Brushless DC motor and if a bit of help is given it can be as far as 50. Most of the power is based on the wheel, but the throttle can be found on the handlebars and this is a button showing power and outlining how much further can be travelled thanks to the electrical power.




Flat tyres are also going to be less problematic than they were in the past and there will be less need to carry out as many pressure checks. High-density foam is used to make the tyres and the promise has been made to ensure that they feel just the same as a rubber tyre.  A USB port has been provided in the handlebars to that phones can be charged and night lights can be used so that it is possible to cycle at any time.

Kickstarter is being used to fund the project and since the launch, there has been $770,000 pledged already. This is double the amount that was hoped for. Three rounds of early bird pledges are out of stock so it will cost $699 to receive the wheel as early as possible. Full price will eventually be $950.
