Many forms of personal transportation are going through an electric transformation these days, and electric bicycles are playing a central role in the electric evolution. Overnight, they became a real sales hit, and after such a short time we are already seeing alternative forms of electric-powered bikes. A good example is the GeoOrbital, a motorized bike that turns a regular bike into an electric bike, just by changing the front wheel.
Besides cars, they are right bikes the greatest part of electrical evolution. With the warnings of environmentalists, Fr increasing pollution of the atmosphere and sweeping global changes bicycles are one of the most powerful "weapons" in the fight against pollution, which largely falls on cars, because most city rides take place over short distances, which should not be too difficult even for an untrained cyclist. But the main problem that bicycles do not relieve the roads faster is a "by-product" of cycling, that is sweating, which later emits unpleasant odors and people tend to lean towards cars when it comes to going to work or running errands.
Fortunately, engineers have found an alternative. Not only in electric cars, but also in electric bikes, which have been experiencing a real boom in recent times. Nothing strange. They are convenient (we don't need a garage for them), we don't pollute the environment with them, they are a cheaper alternative to city cars, and above all, we avoid traffic rush hour with them and know exactly how long it will take us to get from point A to point B. Electric bicycles are the law, but they have two big minuses. In most cases, they are quite expensive, and in addition as heavy as a penny.

But not if you think about it GeoOrbital, a motorized bicycle that replaces the front wheel of a conventional bicycle and turns it into an electric one. And that in just a few moves. It is cheap (only 435 euros was the price for early backers on Kickstarter, and the price will be approx. 780 euros in over-the-counter sales) and extremely light (the bike weighs only 9 kilograms). At its core, it has an electric propulsion system that uses 500-watt motor and 3-kilogram 36V battery (the two extra ones are there for stability) which provides 32 kilometers of autonomy (without propulsion, but in combination with propulsion just 80 km). Allows speeds up to 32 km/h, and the assembly is as simple as clamping a normal wheel. We regulate it with controllers, which is attached to the handlebars and used on practically every bike.
