This electric bicycle will grace your dreams
From electric cars and motorbikes, the days are now filled with the growing prevalence of electric bicycles.
For many, the name "Mini" instantly evokes images of compact, efficient cars with a signature design. In a daring venture, Mini is expanding its horizons beyond four wheels. In partnership with the French brand Angell Mobility, they introduce the Mini E-Bike 1, blending Mini's iconic style with state-of-the-art e-bike technology.
This isn't just any e-bike. The Mini E-Bike 1 stands out due to its incredible adaptability. Designed to cater to riders of all heights, the bike promises a customizable experience. Mainly targeting urban commuters, it's crafted with a sturdy aluminum frame coupled with a thermoplastic chain guard. Its versatile design and features can easily liken it to the Swiss Army knife among e-bikes, ready to tackle varied riding conditions.

Performance-wise, the Mini E-Bike 1 leaves no stone unturned. It's powered by a 250-watt rear hub motor, which riders can seamlessly manage either through an integrated system or a smartphone application. This flexibility ensures riders can adjust performance metrics while on the move. An additional highlight is the bike's 2.1-kilogram battery pack, discreetly positioned under what might appear to be a luggage rack. While not designed to hold bags, this arrangement simplifies the charging process.
The bike's companion app further amplifies its modern appeal. With just a few smartphone taps, users can secure their bike, pinpoint its location through GPS, or unlock it. And for those early birds or night owls, the Mini E-Bike 1 is equipped with front and rear lights, ensuring rider visibility and safety at all times.
Rounding off its aesthetic appeal, the bike is available in two striking colors: Ocean Wave Green and Vibrant Silver, both reminiscent of Mini’s signature shades. What’s more, its exclusivity is assured. Only 1,959 units will be available, a tribute to the year the first Mini Cooper graced the streets. As for its price point? At $3,716, it might be on the premium side, but it promises an array of features that make it an enticing proposition for contemporary commuters.
