The E-Lectra Bike Has Disc Breaks and a Looped Frame for Modernity

— May 13, 2016 — Art & Design
The E-Lectra is a suspension bike engineered by Tautvydas Bertasius to provide consumers with a much more efficient cycle design that embraces modernity. The bicycle opts for a chain-free frame that functions instead using discs and a singular looped frame. The simplicity in the design leads for less malfunctioning and a much more contemporary riding experience.

While many standard bike designs opt for chains that connect the wheels to the frame, the E-Lectra instead utilizes an integrated suspension system located inside the looped structure that connects the front wheel to the back with one piece. The bike also includes a magnetic holder between the handlebars for storing a smartphone during trips. The placement also allows the device to be used during the ride.
