The Copenhagen Wheel with Integrated Motor

This new bicycle wheel turns your normal bicycle into an electric bike.

The interesting thing about this wheel is that it is “intelligent”, it learns your pedaling technique and turns itself on and off when needed, and recharges itself. So there is no need to turn it on or off. For example, if you’re riding along and encounter a hill, the wheel will kick in and give you a little boost up the hill.

Some technical specifications for the Copenhagen Wheel:

  • At 13 lbs, it weighs about as much as a road racing bike.
  • Motor power is 350 watts
  • Its top speed is 20 mph
  • Takes 4 hours to charge
  • Range of 31 miles

It’s important to remember that this is not meant as your primary motor, you are the primary motor, this assists you when you need it, and is intended to complement your cycling, integrate with it and enhance it, rather than replace it.
