Concept (2 of 31)
Description
EBIQ was designed as conceptual idea for future e-bike use. Battery also provides power to the any gadgets which stored in the compartment. you can now recharge your laptop/cellphone/ipod and more. Also, rider can charge their stored gadgets while rider is pedaling.
As a farther plan, EBIQ should have interactive output which rider can access to stored gadgets while riding EBIQ, then rider can listen music, access to internet, and more through the interactive media device that it's carrying.

dope..........
Beautiful concept, very slick. I think it is a good idea, with one shortcoming; the flat, solid body (while part of the great aesthetic) will act like a parachute with sidewinds. I can easily see riders getting blown over (or at the very least, struggling to keep the bike upright and on-course) when getting hit by sidewinds.
I think I get a a lot of comments about the wind. blowing from side.
SO in next version, I should make it with perforated sheet metal or something.
How does that sound?
Dear Mr Fujimura I want to contact you in my personal e- mail account jorgelansi gmaildot com.

Thank you
for this, its concept art put into a 3d program. making this completely flat panel even with perforations wont solve the problem, no matter how you think of it. youd have to remove the panel all together. BUT this is gorgeous to see in 3d and you did a great job aesthetically tuning it to a nice look. nice work.
Awesome concept. Regarding the issue of the surface area and impact of wind, have you considered how much of that material you actually need? Are there essential components that absolutely need to be housed within that flat panel? There's a lot of potential for streamlining, which would result in a superb solution. Keep up the great work.
Thank you for all the comments and input!
As you mentioned, I am aware about wind issue that I think I can solve by using fine mesh as outer shell. Other wise this bicycle will be used only at indoor.
I am designing version 3 which all the feedback shall put together. I am also started to think of building first physical prototype!
Great concept, is like having a swiss knive card but in urban bycicle. Great movility solution.
