Audi Just Dropped an Electric Mountain Bike

The new model was inspired by the brand’s off-roading Audi RS e-tron Dakar Racer, and is powered by Fantic. The bike boasts an enduro frame made out of lightweight aluminum and excels at downhill riding thanks to a full suspension travel setup, wide wheels and off-road tires. A small display set on the handlebars shows key ride data, while a 36 volt battery supplies power to the Brose S-MAG 36 Volt 250 Watt motor. Three sizes will be available, with pricing starting at about $10,300. While the bike is yet to receive a release date, fans can ‘register their interest’ here, and learn more at the link below.
