If you’ve ever wondered what sits at the crossroads of a Puch AX 40, an electric moped, and an ultramodern take on an alternate-dimension café racer, then you may have pictured something that looks like the Metorbike. Hailing from a workshop created by two friends (and engineers) in Hamburg, Germany, it’s quite safe to say that you’ve probably not seen an electric moped like this before.
While it’s very clearly a city runabout, it’s also very clearly a city runabout with a well-defined sense of its own style. Combining the café racer aesthetic with modern touches like the digital dashboard, fully integrated (and tiny) taillight and turn signals and wooden tail piece, as well as the hand-sewn saddle and matching grips, it’s a unique and intriguing piece of work.
