Here comes the ultimate eco-friendly ride of the 21st century. It can either be pedaled like a normal bike or on electric charge. The electric charge comes from a rechargeable lithium-ion battery that can be charged while you are riding and pedaling your way to work or be charged via an AC adapter at home in five and a half hours.
With this bike you will never run out of charge and is ideal for biking to work. Use the electric power when you are going uphill and pedal when going downhill or on the flatter segments of the road. On a full charge, you can ride the bike for about 30 kilometers at a maximum speed of 25 km/h, however if you alternate between pedaling and the battery, you can get up to 45 kilometers from it.
Pedal resistance and acceleration can be selected at will through a color LCD on the handle bar. The drive system is chain-less hybrid with dual hand brakes.
The bike is light-weight and folds to one third of its size for easy storage. The Self Charging Electric Bike will cost you $3,800.
