# Wheelie-Popping Concept Cycles The Newest Audi E-Bike Helps Riders Do Tricks Like a Pro By Sarah Moore | Published 2012-05-14 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audi-e-bike References: [gizmag](http://www.gizmag.com/audi-worthersee-ebike-prototype/22511/) & [audi](http://www.audi.com/com/brand/en/company/news/company.detail.2012~05~audi_at_the_2012_woerthersee.html) The most recent addition to the collection of [battery-powered cycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-bicycle-model) on the market is the [Audi](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audi-emtb) e-bike, which is set to debut at the Wörthersee Tour car show in Austria. Audi's contribution to the electrically enhanced cruiser lineup is geared toward those who want to pop wheelies and bust out other impressive tricks on their cycles. Both the frame and the wheels of this hybrid are constructed from [carbon fiber](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2025-porsche-ebike-sport) to make the bike super lightweight and easy to maneuver. This construction method, coupled with the built in computer, makes shifting gears a breeze. The computer system allows for the bike to shift into auto-power mode when the rider wants to do a few tricks and can easily convert between electric or peddle power-only modes to alter the speed of the cycle with minimal effort. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.8/10 - Popularity: 75% | Activity: 92% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Electric Trick Bikes:** There is a growing demand for electronically enhanced cycles designed for tricks and stunts. - **Carbon Fiber Frames:** The use of lightweight, durable carbon fiber frames in cycling is becoming increasingly popular. - **Computerized Biking:** Bikes featuring integrated computer systems that aid in shifting gears and altering speed are on the rise. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Sports and Recreation:** The sports and recreation industry can take advantage of the growing market for electric trick bikes and carbon fiber frames. - **Automotive:** Automotive companies can explore opportunities to produce electronic bikes as an extension of their brand and offerings. - **Technology:** The development of computerized biking technology provides opportunities for innovation in the tech industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Desert Race Car-Inspired Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audi-emtb.md) - [Automotive Brand Exercise Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audi-smart-spinning-bike.md) - [High-Tech Carbon E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urtopia.md) - [Rugged Full-Suspension E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fullsuspension-ebike.md) - [Hyper-Compact Commuter eBikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/epopcycle.md) - [Futuristic E-Bike Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ebike-concept.md) - [Angular Automotive Electric Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2025-porsche-ebike-sport.md) - [Agile Four-Wheeled eBikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bike-car-hybrid.md) - [Torque-Sensing Cruiser E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cruiser-ebike.md)
