Eco Factor: Concept zero-emission electric motorbike.

The HMK 561 by designer Ralf Kittmann is a concept zero-emission electric motorbike that uses its carbon fiber frame for electricity conduction, putting an end to those messy cables that transmit power from the battery to the in-wheel motors via the handlebar.

Carbon fiber is a highly conductive material that can transmit power to drive the lights and the motors in between the rims of the HMK 561. Moreover, the bike also feature a regenerative braking mechanism that turns the wheels using a counter-turning axle without any gears or chains.
