Pedal…Or Don’t
There are days when your motivation is at an all-time high. You do laundry. Organize your finances. Groom every inch of your body hair. But there are also days when you just want to sit around and do nothing, socks piling up, stocks out of control, body hairs sprouting all willy nilly, wherever and however they feel like it. For this capricious swing in motivation level, we’ve got just the mode of transport for you—the Ingsoc Electric Bike. Designers Edward Kim and Benny Cemoli have created this incredible looking human/electric hybrid bike, where riders can choose to either let the motor work its magic, supplement their pedaling with some assistance from the motor, or pedal only (which in turn, will help charge the battery). This idea in and of itself isn’t new, but what truly sets this bike apart is its unique, futuristic shape, which not only looks impressive, but also benefits from the aerodynamics of triathlon designs. Other thoughtful extras include a smartphone dock (perfect for GPS or as a wireless performance monitor), as well as lighting and direction indicators. Who says lazy can’t look good?
