The world-famous automobile manufacturer Audi has launched a series of its own bicycles. Audi, bicycles, stand out among the analogues in that they are electric.
Modern models from Audi
Amazing transport features thoughtful design. Products are made of high quality materials and all components. Buyer is given a choice. If you wish, you can "assemble" vehicles to your tastes and needs: the shape and color of the disks, the system for switching speeds and brakes, the frame material, as well as the color range of tires, vary in a wide range. These parameters directly determine how much a sports bike from Audi will cost.
The first presentation of modern sports transport took place in 2012. The company introduced the miracle device as a prototype motorcycle with an electric motor. This event caused a lot of noise and delighted feedback from consumers from all over the world. The automobile exhibition was held in Austria, in the city where the lake of incredible beauty is located - Wörthersee. And the Audi concern bicycles received the same name - Worthersee.
Electric Worthersee
Electric bicycles are a fairly common vehicle in many countries of Europe and Asia. The bike from Audi, reviews of which are left by both Europeans and residents of our country, is ideal for performing tricks with maximum safety for both the transport itself and the athlete. A particular advantage is noted - the ability to record extreme achievements. This allows you to capture a successful trick and even distribute it on any social network. The Audi Worthersee is unique in its inclusion in software and social media.
The electric bike from the German manufacturer has LED lights, a 9-speed gearbox, and also excellent hydraulic disc brakes. The whole structure is made of modern and reliable material - carbon fiber. The maximum developed power is equal to three horsepower, an electric motor is built into the lower part of the frame. Audi are electric bicycles, and accelerate to 90 km / h.
Engine Features and Motion
All previous versions of electric bicycles were not widespread due to their considerable weight, since the battery was almost too heavy. This disadvantage manifested itself especially when the charge was running out and you had to control the bike yourself. The Worthersee model from the German manufacturer is reinforced with carbon fiber not only in the frame but also in the wheels. As a material for them was taken carbon fiber reinforced plastic fiber.
At the bottom of the frame of the sports electric bike are the battery and the engine itself. All control is carried out by a standard handle. Driving modes can be selected using the built-in computer. In total, Worthersee has 5 modes, and each cyclist can choose which one is most interesting to him. The balance between independent control of a sports bike and the functioning of an electric motor is also subject to regulation. The bike computer has a modern Wi-Fi system.
Available driving modes and battery charging
After each trip, the analysis of the received tracking information is carried out, which allows you to "adjust" individually to the integrated electrical system responsible for adjusting the functions of Worthersee. Audi - bicycles tuned for precise work and interesting for the athlete ride. Therefore, the developers have provided 5 possible options for travel / modes:
- "Pure" - the bike rides only due to the movement of the pedals.
- “Pedelik” - an electric motor starts, which allows you to gain almost maximum speed, while the range of the power reserve is 50-70 km.
- "EGripp" - a speed limit of 50 km / h due to the torsion of the rear wheel drive unit.
- "Power Willy" - setting the angle of inclination at the rear wheel (designed specifically for beginner cyclists).
- "Balanced Willy" - the electric motor controls all the balance (ideal for professionals).
It takes only about 3 hours to fully charge a dead battery. Many cyclists take another fully charged battery with them on a trip. The weight of an electric bike from Audi is no more than 9 kg.
Audi Duo
In addition to electric models, the German company presented to the masses its new development called “Duo”. Sports bike is unusual in that the material for the frame is wood. The creators claim that this innovation guarantees perfect ride and maximum vibration absorption.
Plus, the advantage is the significantly lower weight of the modern wood frame compared to aluminum structures. The developers focus on the details of the bike - LED lighting lamps, brakes, as well as a belt drive. To date, there are 3 options available for this hand-built bike - Duo City, Sport and Road. The minimum cost on the "urban" model varies within 6.5 thousand dollars. Sport and Road are more expensive - up to 9 thousand.
