With the Consumer Electronics Show happening right now in Las Vegas we’re getting details about all manner of new tech and gadgets slated for release in the coming year.
- SpeedX Leopard review (1-star)
- SpeedX Unicorn spec and pricing confirmed
- Over to you: What's the dumbest 'smart' cycling gadget?
On the heels of Speed-X announcing its next smart bike, the Unicorn, Chinese tech heavyweight LeEco has just announced a Smart Road Bike and MTB, which join a commuter bike that's already available in Asia.
The bikes are tech heavy to say the least and are built around the brand's Android-powered ‘Bike OS”. It utilises a four-inch touchscreen that the company says will display turn-by-turn directions based on riding routes from HERE Maps, connects to a cellular network, will play music and allow for walkie-talkie communication with other nearby compatible LeEco smart bikes and will function as a cycling computer too.

The bikes will also feature onboard GPS and GLONASS capabilities as well as a compass, accelerometer, barometer, light level sensor, speed and cadence sensors as well as ANT+ connectivity for third part heart rate and power sensors. There are built-in automatic lights on the front and sides, and a horn and security alarm, which according to LeEco automatically alerts the owner if the alarm is activated and tracks its location through an accompanying mobile app.
This is all powered by a 6000mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery and LeEco says all the electronics carry an IP54 water resistance rating.
