They are probably the ugliest bikes I’ve ever seen


timbodacious

Yeah the world didnt react very well to these designs. They did too much with the designs.


CaptainCrippy

I’d agree on the Curtiss, there are a few design elements that are a bit too decoratively steampunk, but, those bikes are made to order so, I’m sure you could dial down a bit. Still, the lines and posture of the bike make up for a lot it to my eye. Not to mention the performance of this bike is among the best ever. Here’s a a vid about the bike: [the Opposite of Death](https://youtu.be/lIWZZZy1PIU)

I can see the appeal and I understand they are "custom" but the prices are a complete joke, somebody is smokin crack.


CaptainCrippy

Yep, I agree with that, it’s crazy money


Tuscans1977

Obviously they're going after crypto millionaires and nft dealers 🤣


GoodMerlinpeen

Wait a week, those crypto millionaires will be crypto thousandaires


War_Emotional

They look rather fugly to me.

If you like motorcycles then I suppose you’d like those. Because that’s what those are. If you like bicycles then you’re unlikely to be into those. Because that’s not what those are.


IncreasinglyAgitated

Looks like shit


CaptainCrippy

Yea? Let’s see a pic of a bike you like on the same level as these


JDavie2357

It’s hideous


ember13140

I like bikes that can be actually used for transportation and doesn't cost as much as a fucking house!


sirsmokesalot403

Lmao my guy if it runs like a 10 but looks like a 1... it's a 1


wallonthefloor

Looks like some hideous renders


CaptainCrippy

These are in full production, not sure what you mean about “renders”. I love the style of both these bikes


fenriq

I dunno, I kind of think they're weird looking and not especially attractive. Probably stupid fun to ride tho.


AdvBrad

Has to ride like a wet noodle

Goofy ah bike


CaptainCrippy

Seems each time I search for stuff I find new interesting things. These two bikes are my favorite atm. From style to performance they are hard to beat. I’m sure there are more out there I haven’t seen yet, so post a link to the coolest ebike or emotorcycle you’ve ever seen.


CaptainCrippy

Here’s links to the two I posted above: [Moto Parilla](https://www.motoparilla.it/ebike/?lang=en) [Curtiss The 1](https://www.curtissmotorcycles.com/the1)


buckerooni

What's the price on the Ultra?


CaptainCrippy

The Curtis starts at 83k…. I’ve no idea on Moto Parilla


Tuscans1977

83k as in eighty three thousand dollars??


CaptainCrippy

Yep, and their motorcycles started at over 100k… I’ll never own one but I can appreciate it.


Mabman_2400

Actually those bikes have been available for quite a few years now. Not sure how they stay in production.....


CANCER-THERAPY

You mean one of the coolest when comes to aesthetics.


CaptainCrippy

Both really. In either case of the two above, the performance is there to match good looks. To me, that’s the holy grail, when style meets performance.


Deepfriedwithcheese

That carbon looks Gaudy as fuck, like you’re going to where a pair of Gucci slippers while riding it or something. To each his own I guess.


CaptainCrippy

Yep to each their own…


kyralfie

Impossible. They are obviously very heavy. 'The performance' is there maybe if you count only the straight line acceleration. I wouldn't want to ride one of these.


CaptainCrippy

I rode one of their gas powered motorcycles called the Hellcat in Daytona many years ago and in terms of geometry and balance, their bikes are flickable and effortless. I would have loved to hit the twisties with it. The engineering in that respect is astounding.


kyralfie

Try something lighter but still powerful and will see the difference. Hint: you will never want to go back if you truly are after performance and not subjective looks only.


CaptainCrippy

It depends on the bike, what it’s purpose is and what your trying to achieve.


kyralfie

Sure. And compared to a gas motorcycle these ebikes may actually be agile. lol


ember13140

How do you plan to override the laws of physics?


kyralfie

Say what? I don't. I'm saying that these bikes are looks first.

Sad


nvrrsatisfiedd

I guess the only thing I really don't like for the 1st picture is the big covers over the front forks and the seat posts and seats themselves. Its like they tried to mimic a motorcycle but put actual bicycle seats on them. If they had a dirt bike styled seat and lost the fork guards I'd like them? Unless those aren't fork guards and the forks themselves? No front suspension? If thats the case hard pass. 2nd picture just get a chopper. At those prices you mentioned you could get a few or a few crotch rockets.


Mxnchkinz

Sorry but no


sirsmokesalot403

It looks like it should come with bluetooth
