Tires are just wheels! Future e-bike "beno" with no hub or spokes

 

Spokes are a thing of the past.

The future e-bike " beno " has empty front and rear wheels and no hubs or spokes. After four years of development, reservations have finally begun.

"Beno" is equipped with a 750W motor for the United States, and can run without rowing with electric assist and throttle. And the removable battery is 48V and the charging time is 3 hours. The maximum speed is 40km. In addition, the front and rear rims (covers) have headlights that detect darkness and turn on automatically, and brake lights that double as turn signals.

For the time being, if it is for Europe, it is only electric reed at 250W. If you come to Japan, it will be this model.

Anti-theft with fingerprint authentication and GPS

This novelty will inevitably be stolen in one shot if stopped somewhere. Therefore, it also has a function to lock and unlock the wheels in the frame using fingerprint authentication and display the result of motion detection on the smartphone via GPS in case it is taken.

How do you make it hubless?

If you look closely, you can't miss the cantilevered front fork. Looking at the photo on the right side, it seems that the fork and the rim cover are integrated, so it will support the wheels so that they will not collapse here, and only the rubber tires and the rim hidden inside the cover will rotate. think. Otherwise, the headlights will rotate with it. Along with that, I think it is unique that the brake shoes are installed from the bottom to the top.

As for the rear wheels, there is a large vertical groove on the cover, so it seems that they are actually cantilevered like the front wheels.

You can carry your luggage in the space inside the ring

What's a little interesting is that you attach a special bag to the empty tire space and use it as a storage space. You can't carry big things, but you can carry things like shoulder bags back and forth.

By the way, the kickstand is hidden and pulled out from the pedal side.

200,000 yen if you make a reservation

The list price of "Reevo" is $ 3,349 (about 353,800 yen), but if you make a reservation, you can get it for $ 1,899 (about 200,000 yen), which is 43% off.

In the past, I was surprised at the EV bike "VERGE TS ", which has a slick in the middle of the rear wheel, but if it's an e-bike that's easier than that, I'd like you to save money.
