The 'Battaglin Fenix' is an innovative steel e-bike that was developed in order to make it possible for legendary cyclist Giovanni Battaglin to go about enjoying two-wheel exploration again after heart problems meant that he was told he couldn't ride a conventional bicycle again.

This particular steel e-bike takes the form factor of a road bike but offers a handy boost by way of the [rear hub-located motor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nimble-urban-ebikes) that works in conjunction with a battery capable of producing 250 watt-hours. Meanwhile, [pedal assist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/estarli-e28) allows for handy movement without getting one's heart rate up.

Elsewhere, one of the unique features of the 'Battaglin Fenix' steel e-bike is the fact that each and every unit is built in a customized manner taking into account the unique dimensions and geometry of each purchaser, which goes a long way to explaining why only 30 units of this particular e-bike will be constructed this year.

This steel e-bike is available for prices starting at around $10,482 in Europe, with riders able to choose between a dozen different colors.
