Off-Road Electric Bikes

This Eco-Friendly Bike Features Electric Powertrain Technology

— June 27, 2015 — Eco
Bultaco is calling its new electric bike "the world's first moto-bike" because it features the same electric powertrain technology found in their motorcycles. The new bike is called the 'Bultaco Brinco' and it is essentially half motorcycle and half bicycle.

The Bultaco Brinco features a 2-kW motor and a 1.3-kWh lithium-ion battery. The battery is easy to remove and can be fully recharged in only about two hours. The bike is made for off-road riding and features 60Nm torque as well as combined traction. The bike also has three different riding modes, which can be adjusted based on terrain and desired speed. Perhaps the most impressive feature of the Bultaco Brinco is the addition of electric powertrain technology, which allows the bike to reach speeds of up to 37 mph.
Trend Themes
1. Electric Powertrain Technology in Off-road Bikes - Incorporating electric powertrain technology in off-road bikes opens up opportunities for faster, more efficient and eco-friendly rides.

3. Hybrid Motorcycles and Bicycles - The emergence of hybrid motorcycles and bicycles like the Bultaco Brinco offers a disruptive innovation opportunity by combining the best features of both modes of transportation.
Industry Implications

2. Sporting Goods - The sporting goods industry has the potential to tap into the market of hybrid motorcycles and bicycles, offering versatile and eco-friendly alternatives for outdoors enthusiasts.
3. Automotive - The automotive industry can collaborate with electric bike manufacturers to develop advanced powertrain technology that can be applied to off-road vehicles, expanding their range of eco-friendly offerings.
