We don’t often get to update you on the more madcap crowdfunded e-bike projects we’ve previously reported on – for the simple reason that most of them don’t go anywhere. It seems Beno’s hubless Reevo e-bike did at least get built – although given what we’ve seen, perhaps it shouldn’t have been. Announced in 2020, the Reevo boasted hubless, spokeless wheels; a one-sided fork; and fingerprint locking/unlocking. This was apparently a sufficiently alluring package that it managed to attract over £5m in crowdfunding.
I watched that video last week, and holy shit, that bike is a death trap.
