Fuell Releases an All-Electric Motorcycle and Bicycle - Legendary biker Erik Buell has launched a new electric motorcycle and bicycle company called Fuell. Buell and his partners’ main goal is to create a stylish path to urban mobility. The company’s first product is an all-electric bicycle called Fluid that’s powered by a 980kW battery pack. The other product Fuell has created is an electric motorcycle very similar to Harley-Davidson’s LiveWire, called Flow. This motorcycle has a 125-mile range and can use either use a 10kW or 35kW battery pack allowing the bike to connect to a fast charger that takes just 30-minutes to gain full range. The main selling point of this model is that it’s roughly $20,000 cheaper than Harley’s electric model - yeah you read that right. The Flow comes in at just $10,995 - which is why we have a feeling that this new model might give Harley’s LiveWire a run for its money. Read More.
