While categorizing this beautiful piece of design as a vehicle might be problematic, one thing is sure: the Munrojoy Retro Classic Electric Bicycle is a thing of beauty, packed with proven technology from Samsung, and highly road capable.
Regulatory issues aside (they vary wildly by country, state, and municipality), the Munrojoy lineup of electric bikes are capable of scooter-like speeds.

This bike has a 500W, 48V motor which produces a maximum peak torque of 800W, a DC high output magnetic motor and is said to be capable of reaching speeds up to 31 mph (50 kph).

Basically the size of a conventional bike, the Munrojoy Retro Classic Electric Bicycle is sure to be convenient, simple to store, cheap to operate and a snap to park.

The Munrojoy Retro Classic Electric Bicycle is available in the U.S. - it’s named in honor of motorcycle speed hero Burt Munro of The World’s Fastest Indian fame - and this e-bike design evokes the classic styling of Indian motorcycles from the start of the machine age.

The Munrojoy Retro Classic Electric is DOT certified to comply with U.S. regulations and quality standards. Despite a lightweight aluminum frame, the entire bike weighs in at a slightly portly 99 pounds.

On the plus side, the Retro Classic also features LED headlights, a pair of 23.2AH two-group Samsung lithium batteries which are expected to produce a ‘service life’ of 5 years, and a V-shaped double cylinder, chrome-plated battery box.

Munrojoy says the Retro Classic is capable of a 62-mile round trip between charges and is brought to a halt via a pair of four-piston disc brakes which cut off the power immediately upon braking.

On the downside? The price: You can now find the Munrojoy Retro Classic Electric on Amazon for $3,999 USD and lower on Chinese sites at around $1,899 USD before shipping for a slightly less capable model. That ain’t exactly a bargain-basement price, but you get a ton of style for your money.
