The motorcycle manufacturer is ramping up its efforts to get into the electric bike market. After about a year of releasing e-bikes that are reportedly surprisingly affordable, the company has announced the first iteration of a new series of one-off custom e-bikes.
The company will hold online worldwide auctions for each of these bikes. The first one, for the Mosh Chopper, closed yesterday. The bike itself, described as “a psychedelic, hand-painted banana seater,” was inspired by the iconic Sting Ray bike from Schwinn. It has a ’60s style blue “Street Freak” paint job, high-rise handlebars and a long, low banana seat.
It certainly looks cool, and if that helps drive e-bike adoption, we’re all for it.
