*아우디 일렉트로닉 바이크 [ AUDI ] e-bike worthersee

일렉트릭 바이크는 아우디와 사이클리스트 쥬리엔의 공동작업을 통하여 개발 및 발전하여

지금의 디자인으로 완성되었습니다. 일반 스포츠 경기와 퍼포먼스 경기를 위한 바이크는

리튬이온전지를 장착한 카본파이어 프레임과 26인치 휠을 장착한 최적의 디자인을 보여줍니다.

여기에 페달을 통하여 에너지를 충전하거나 순간적인 힘을 발휘 할 수 있도록

설계되어 다양한 목적에 활용 가능합니다.

또 한번 패러다임을 바꾸겠군요. 언제 출시될지 기대해 봅니다.

next week at the wörthersee tour in austria, AUDI will present its performance electric bike for sports and trick cycling. throughout the development process, competitive cyclist julien dupont tested and offered feedback on the bicycle, utilized by AUDI in its optimization of the design.

the lithium-ion bike features a carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) frame and 26-inch wheels, the latter of which represent the 'audi ultra blade' design of broad, flat spokes to increase the transmission of pedal power.

located at the lowest point on the frame, the electric motor generates a record-breaking maximum output of 2.3kW: a power-to-weight ratio of 9kg (19.8lb) per kilowatt. the rider can choose from among five cycling modes: human-powered only ('pure'), the electric motor alone ('egrip'), or pedaling supported by the electric motor ('pedelec').

an on-bike touchscreen computer interfaces with smartphone via WLAN, and video can be recorded via the in-helmet camera and uploaded via the mobile device to the web. an online portal lets trick cyclists compete against one another, earning pointsfor successful tricks that have been videotaped and uploaded.

'the AUDI e-bike wörthersee has AUDI in its genes down to the very last detail,' explains carsten monnerjan, head of AUDI's
concept design studio munich development facility. 'for us, that is crucial when it comes to designing a product that is not an automobile.' andré georgi, one of the designers of the studio, adds by way of example: 'the homogeneous LED light strips ensure that the AUDI e-bike wörthersee is immediately recognized as being an AUDI product.'

for trick cycling, the bike's seat can be lowered to run flush with the frame, returnable to normal riding position with the touch of a button. a multimode electronic control system also supports the rider when performing backwheeling, wheelies, and other tricks.
