Covers


After spending a whole winter in the workshop cutting away fittings and battery from the center frame, I discovered that the big wheels brings to much fokus to the start and the end of the bike. The trend of having see through frames with no fairings  caught to much of my design attention. In a small test I just rested the plastic fairings in the frame - and it made a big differense. More optical fokus to the center and less "hole in the frame".


No work is in vain. Because I stripped the frame from unnecessary fittings I can place the fairings were I want them. Now fitted inside the frame rather than hanging on the outside. They don´t add any width to the bike, just a shape that amplify the impression of a bike, long and thin as a paper.
