Now any bike can be turned into an electric bike Former BYD and Huawei engineers have created a compact electric drive that attaches to the frame and accelerates the rear wheel up to 32 km/h.

@Rainmaker1973 @grok how much would it cost?, any charging etc required? How much 1 charge battery life in hours or KM? where is it available ?

@Rainmaker1973 It’s cycle bro not bike

@Rainmaker1973 Poor engineering. The arm should be below the pivot point. As is, the force of the motor pushes the drive wheel to disengage. This limits torque.

@Rainmaker1973 Suggest throwing in a few tires in with this purchase as they will get eaten up quickly.

@Rainmaker1973 Where can I buy this!

@Rainmaker1973 That is what I need for my wheelchair!

@Rainmaker1973 Apparently it will cost just over £250 pounds and if I convert that into the mickey mouse money, its around $349 dollars. I dunno, I think I would rather keep the money and avoid too many hills on the bike if I could. The point of a bike is also to keep fit.

@Rainmaker1973 Wow. This is incredible

@Rainmaker1973 That’s pretty amazing

@Rainmaker1973 My bike runs on renewable energy: legs

@Rainmaker1973 I wonder how it performs during rain and also how the tire is affected over time.

@Rainmaker1973 Remarkable

@Rainmaker1973 I need one of these!

@Rainmaker1973 Horrible design, ur jacket will get caught in that. Also requires constant presssure without lock mechanism, will break so fast

@Rainmaker1973 Neat solution for upgrading a regular bike. Curious about how it handles different terrains.

@Rainmaker1973 This is incredible—truly badass innovation! I once came across a similar product from a company that I thought could be a game-changer for helping homeless folks who are handicapped and rely on wheelchairs. Imagine attaching a lightweight e-boost device to give them that extra

@Rainmaker1973 This device clips onto your regular bike to turn it into an high performing electric bike

@Rainmaker1973 I saw things like this in the 80’s.

@Rainmaker1973 Smart innovation — turning any bike into an e-bike with a compact drive is a perfect example of practical engineering and sustainable mobility. #Innovation #Engineering

@Rainmaker1973 Nothing novel here.

@Rainmaker1973 ha, the Solex concept !

@Rainmaker1973 cool stuff..

@Rainmaker1973 That's not a bad idea.

@Rainmaker1973 The 750W power and 90 km range are impressive, especially for such a lightweight device

@Rainmaker1973 What about the rest of the bike?

@Rainmaker1973 👀👀👀

@Rainmaker1973 Super gay and for lazy fag boys who can’t peddle on their own volition

@Rainmaker1973 Raise your hands if you have a spare dewalt drill, or Milwaukee and just havn't had time to make that "go kart"

@Rainmaker1973 Modern engineers, inventing things that already exist, in a stupid way.
