Nathan Armstrong, who has played a pioneering role in the design of many eyecatching automobiles thanks to his varied skill-set and experiences in fabrication, engineering and modeling, has knocked it out of the park once again with the launch of the Armstrong EB1, an electric motorbike that offers a truly unique combination of high speed and low weight.
Released under the Armstrong Electric Vehicles label launched in the western Canadian city of Calgary, the 'Armstrong EB1' is capable of achieving a top speed of 110 km/h and can spring along from zero to 96 km/h in only 3.5 seconds thanks to its 6,000-watt motor. These sorts of numbers might suggest that this is a fairly sizeable two-wheeler, the in fact the 'Armstrong EB1' electric motorbike weighs only 66 kg, making it a fine example of how well-informed engineering and design can result in weight savings without compromising on speed.
