Roobarb Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Bored in China so walked around a number of fancy and Chinese car dealers. Got to the Aston dealership (closed to a shiter like me apparently) and saw these little beauties... Are they electric? sorry for the crappy photos. It’s about as close as I could get, drooling down the windows. They look pretty smart! Six-cylinder, doug, Alanism and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingz123 Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Maybe they were built for Aston Martin....a bit like how Orange County Choppers would build bikes for people... Roobarb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonny69 Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 I can't believe they forgot you were going there and were closed. That's a bit off. Roobarb and Wack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike D Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Theyre electric push bikes, the 'engine' will more than likely be the battery pack - Vintage electric do a similar thing Roobarb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wack Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Could they be something to do with emissions offset like the sygnet they did a while back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the same experience walking past a hugo boss shop in Milan, not that I wanted to go in but the look from the Italian model security guard in a £1000 suit and sunglasses said you can fuck right off you scruffy bastard Bamboocarman, Roobarb and Jerzy Woking 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roobarb Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 How does the power even get there? Is the rear ‘hub’ the electric motor? Seems to be common with the bike tooSavey posted except that seemed to have one at the front as well. tooSavvy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernaut Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 The rear hub looks big enough to be a motor. I have a similar set up on my mountain bike (but fitted to a much, much less fancy frame). The front disc brake was the first giveaway to me. Look how small it is! Roobarb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martc Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 They did do a manual pushbike, for £15,777. For that money you'd have thought they would fit it with pedals. tooSavvy, Roobarb and Bamboocarman 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
