Want the style of a Harley but don't like the emissions or noise of the v-twin engine? This e-bike from Serbian firm ONO could be right up your street.
Let's be fair about this, the Archont Electro is not a bike to take too seriously – we won't be getting one in to test anytime soon, but it's good to see that companies are still producing bikes that are… well, just a little bit mad.
The stainless steel frame and fork of the Archont mimic those of a cruiser motorcycle and, if you haven't already, then it's worth taking a look at its swoopy lines in our gallery above. In place of a regular fuel tank, the Archont Electro gets a carbon fibre box which contains the bike's 72v battery.
Despite having a whole load of air where you'd normally have an engine, it's safe to say that the Archont Electro won't be down on pace thanks to a motor mounted at the rear wheel which is rated at a colossal 7Kw. All that power translates into a claimed top speed of 50mph (80km/h), which should make things very exciting indeed.
