Munro Motor 2.0: when classic meets modern

Is it an electric bike that looks like a motorcycle or vice versa? Did it come from a museum or the future? We conclude that it is an electric motorcycle that evokes different feelings. Both in terms of form and content. The Munro 2.0, as it's called, is like a ghost from the past, the ghost of the famous New Zealand racer Burt Munro, who set speed records on his Indian 1920 motorcycle after World War II.

Munro 2.0 it belongs to a new class of road vehicles, which are the size of ordinary bicycles, but do not have pedals, so it is difficult to classify them in one or the other drawer. Why do we split hairs? Well, not us, but those who regulate the rules on the roads will have to, because sooner or later it will be necessary for safety reasons. Well, back to Munroe. The shape obviously inherited a lot from the legendary ones of Indian engines (the first engines in the USA). At a speed of up to 45 km/h drives it Bosch an electric motor mounted on the rear wheel. There is room in the frame for 2 batteries, which are sufficient for the poor 50 km drive, namely each individually. Munro, who will weigh in 35 kg, will be available in different colors, and you will also be able to choose between different types of handlebars.

The price is currently unknown, although it is estimated that it should range between 700 and 1,100 euros. Depends on the version, of course.
