# Extraordinary Electric Bicycles The nCycle E-Bike Integrates a Lock and a Holographic Display By Amelia Roblin | Published 2013-01-03 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ncycle References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2013/01/03/the-ncredible-ncycle/) & [skyrill](http://www.skyrill.com/ncycle/1.jpg) An electric bike is impressive all on its own, so you'll be astonished by the specs of the nCycle, offering unexpected luxurious utility. While most two-wheeler owners need to accessorize their rides with lights and anti-theft devices, this model by Hussain Almossawi and Marin Myftiu comes with it all built right in. A sculptural but slender frame is unusual in shape for a seductive aesthetic. Inside this streamlined case is a hub-mounted [electric motor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bicycle-technology) that powers the back wheel, with the capacity to operate the [LED lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-bike-concept-design) at the front and the optional holographic display. This futuristic feature connects to your smartphone via bluetooth and can even be enhanced by integrated speakers. To top it off, the Skyrill nCycle doubles as a [folding bike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velotric-fold-1) and its handlebars can be adjusted to perform as an impenetrable bike lock. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.8/10 - Popularity: 98% | Activity: 99% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Luxury E-bikes:** The trend of electric bicycles with built-in luxurious features will continue to grow. - **Integrated Safety Features:** The integration of safety features like bike locks and lights in e-bikes will become more common. - **Smart E-bikes:** The trend of e-bikes with smart features like holographic displays and smartphone integration will become more popular for tech-savvy consumers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Bicycle Manufacturing:** Bicycle manufacturers should explore opportunities to integrate safety features and luxurious features into e-bikes. - **Electronics:** Opportunities for electronics manufacturers to create more advanced smart features for e-bikes will continue to grow. - **Smartphone Manufacturing:** Smartphone manufacturers could partner with e-bike manufacturers to offer seamless integration between the bikes and smartphones. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Outdoor Adventure-Focused Smart E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-ebike1.md) - [Stylized Foldable E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gocycle-g4i.md) - [Innovative eBike Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/innovative-ebike.md) - [Futuristic E-Bike Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ebike-concept.md) - [Next-Generation E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nx12.md) - [Sleek Electric Bicycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/model-1.md) - [Minimalist X-Frame E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honbike-uni4.md) - [Hyper-Compact Commuter eBikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/epopcycle.md) - [Smart Foldable E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mihogo-one.md)
