Electroscoot which looks like jumped out of an comic book.
Designed by Gro Design.
If we like to design a emoped we have to think
about where the energy comes from.
maybe solarfoils are a possibility. (laminated in the frame?)

This is the electric bike from Quantya, a swiss company that started building electric motorcycles two years ago.
This picture of Rito (Salomon Snowboards) shot at the ISPO Munich fair earlier this year. I also got to ride and I have to say, it’s Awesome! It accelerates like a rocket. The bike won the ISPO Brand New Award, which is given to company startups in the field of sports.
A video from myself riding the bike is still by Christian’s (we Did it) camera.
Max Speed: 40 mph Battery life: 2 hours Recharge time: 2hours Weight: Aprox. 80kilos Price Tag: 8500 Euros.
Phases of the Design Stage

This project is a pretty complex one, so in order to go somewhere I think it is important to divide the Design process in Clear phases to work on. This image is a quick sketch of the first idea of the Phase structure from the Design Stage of the e.Moped project.
A good think to do is to define theses phases in detail and to set goals to be achieved in the end of each one of them.
Should we add any think to this Image? Any sugestion of the sub-phases inside each of these phases?
