Explore how an electric bicycle could express a cohesive product identity while integrating rider controls, interface, structure, and propulsion into one clear concept.

01

Use a strong structural silhouette to create an immediately recognizable electric-bicycle identity.

02

Integrate rider information and controls into the handlebar area rather than adding a separate generic display.

03

Develop the side profile, interface, and component package as one product system.
