Onebot launched the 'Onebot S2,' an unconventional, ultra-compact folding electric bicycle. This e-bike features a two-toned design with a light-blue upper frame and a light-pink lower frame. The seat and the handlebars are situated on a 90-degree angle, while the pedals are near directly below the seat. This is an unconventional design, particularly when combined with the small 14-inch tires.
The bicycle boasts a 250-watt hub motor that delivers a top speed of 15.5 miles per hour. However, this speed is variable based on whether the bicycle is in pedal-assistance mode or in full-electric mode. Additionally, the Onebot S2 features a 216Wh battery that delivers approximately 31 miles of range per charge. However, different riding modes have a large impact on this range value.
The Onebot S2 can be preordered now from Onebot's IndieGoGo page at an early-bird price of $500 USD.
