EBIKE CONCEPT

The idea of having wheels supported on one side seems questionable, as it could present various challenges. However, tackling these issues might make for an exciting challenge. This bike features an unseen electric drive concept, where the rear wheel is powered by a smaller rubber wheel beneath the seat, similar to old dynamos. Ideally, this wheel should only contact the rear wheel when necessary. The standard drive chain cog could be redirected to the motor, with the possibility of using it to charge devices when not in use. Feasibility aside, driving the rear wheel through a normal sprocket is another option; however, designing the hub for the rear wheel could be tricky. Considering direct drive motors and fluid drives as potential solutions, a monoshock at the front, a rear mudguard/rack, and possibly even a trailer are on the list of features to add.
