Imagine the thrill of cycling at highway speeds, the wind in your hair, and the power of electricity propelling you forward. This is no ordinary bike; this is eROCKIT‘s high-octane vision for electric mobility, blending the essence of a bicycle with the power of a motorcycle.
The eROCKIT’s Pedigree: Not Just an E-Bike
The eROCKIT thrusts you into an exhilarating ride with a staggering top speed of 62 mph (100 km/h). While it may look similar to an e-bike with its pedal-powered design, it defies the conventional definition. Donning the moniker “Human Hybrid®,” eROCKIT AG from Germany has engineered a masterpiece that stands at the intersection of human effort and electric efficiency.
With a substantial 5 kW motor peaking at 16 kW, this lightweight electric motorcycle, powered by a 52V 7.5 kWh lithium-ion battery, promises to deliver riders up to 80 miles (130 km) on a single charge. Moreover, the eROCKIT can rejuvenate its battery level from 20% to 80% in just 3 hours or achieve a full charge from 0% to 100% within 6 hours, courtesy of a 230V outlet.
Redefining the Riding Experience
The eROCKIT is no ordinary mechanical contraption. It embodies a revolutionary concept, a beacon of rapid electric acceleration and pedaling pleasure, all packaged within an award-winning frame. What sets it apart is the “Human Hybrid®” system, a dance of human energy and technological prowess that ensures every ride is an emotive journey steeped in innovation and sustainable ethos.
Unlike the direct pedal-to-wheel systems found in traditional e-bikes, the eROCKIT’s pedals serve as a dynamic throttle, dictating the speed at which the bike propels itself. This inventive system translates human exertion into extraordinary acceleration, with a mere few pedals you could be coursing at a swift 62 mph (100 km/h).
“The eROCKIT empowers the rider with a human hybrid drive. The sophisticated electronics recognize the physical effort exerted and amplify it by over fifty times, catapulting you to high-speed thrills in mere seconds.”
The label of being the “fastest street-legal” e-bike may be a subject for debate, considering the product blurs the lines between bicycle and motorcycle classifications. Nonetheless, eROCKIT proudly states that it is the only vehicle that allows “cycling” on the autobahn, ensuring its classification as a road-worthy machine, complete with a standard license plate and motorway privileges—sidewalks and trails, however, are off-limits.
The Practical Essentials
While it may share the “bike” nomenclature and pedal functionality, the eROCKIT is, in every sense, an electric motorcycle. Weighing in at 286 lb (130 kg), regulations that apply to 125cc motorcycles also govern this electric speedster. Riders will need to fulfill all the prerequisites of registration, insurance, and possessing a motorcycle license to legally operate it on public roads.
Securing Your eROCKIT
The eROCKIT is set to shake the market with its €12,900 price tag (~$13,950). Prospective buyers are welcomed to join the excitement with a €250 reservation fee. As customers finalize their purchase and configurations, their personalized eROCKIT will commence the production journey. Interested buyers can find more information on eROCKIT’s official website.
This electric marvel is redefining what it means to travel on two wheels, merging the passion of cycling with the thrill of motorcycling, all while leveraging the clean energy of electricity. One thing is clear: the eROCKIT is charging the path forward into an electrified future of high-speed, pedal-powered adventure.
