Very cool bike Tom. Can't wait for this technology to take off.

I see. Propane sounds like a win win plus a lot of fun to design around! Best of luck!
Tom Miceli Feb 01, 2010

Thats where the propane bike comes into play. From my research, propane is a higher octane then pump gas (approx. 110 octane), thus delivering more power with a high compression motor. It also produces fewer emissions and does not build up carbon in the motor, resulting in fewer oil changes and longer engine life.

Ben, I never got to take it to a test track, but I did some testing on the mountain roads where I live. It is a fun bike to ride, but the technology is still not there to really compete with fossil fuel bikes.

I see what you mean... your new design is "sharp" (literally & figuratively)! Have fun building your new propane-fueled thumper! BTW: Did you ever get the ion out to a test track and put it thru its paces?
Tom Miceli Jan 25, 2010

Thank you Ben. It is always great to get positive feedback. I am currently in the early stages for a propane bike design that is a little narrower, more angular and aggressive. We will see how it turns out.

Impressive design! The look from the front is amazing!

Thank you Chulmin.

impressive ! electric bike ~ i wish i can have 1
Grigory Gorin Aug 26, 2009

I understand, anyway real electric bike is very very cool thing.
Tom Miceli Aug 24, 2009

Grigory I wish I could tell you but we have not timed any runs yet. The acceleration is much different then a traditional bike in that it is smooth on the start yet it continues to pull harder the faster you go. The best thing to compare it to is taking off in a jet. I was able to do some test runs in a parking lot where I got the bike up to around 80km/h before I ran out of pavement in what seemed like only a few seconds. When we get the actual numbers I will make sure to post them. Tom

And from 0 to 100km/h what time?

Thanks Robert. Once again great job on the Bimota design.
