EPO-Pocket Bike

Our good friend Christian Amendt has a project that he’s sharing with us this week. Taking a break from his EPO-Bike electric racing motorcycle that he’s campaigned in the FIM e-Power series, the German student has built something a bit smaller, but equally fun. Complete with a 7kW brushless DC motor and .9kWh of battery on-board, we’re dubbing this electric pocket bike the “EPO-Pocket Bike” until Christian comes up with a more suitable name for the pint-sized terror.

The EPO-Pocket Bike is good for about 15-20 minutes of ride time with its current configuration, and according to Amendt is a lot more fun, with less vibration, that its ICE counterparts. Amendt’s creation is geared to 40 mph, but power wheelies are possible all the way to 25 mph with a crack of full-throttle.
