French startup Éclair is poised to introduce its innovative AI-powered electric bike, representing a significant advancement in the realm of sustainable commuting. The company, founded in 2021 with a commitment to environmental responsibility, exclusively sources its production materials from France and neighboring European countries.
The yet-to-be-named Éclair AI-powered e-bike, reminiscent of the Smalo PX2 model, incorporates artificial intelligence to predict the optimal level of rider assistance, ensuring a seamless and natural riding experience.
Constructed from a blend of steel and aluminum, the e-bike places a strong emphasis on minimizing carbon emissions, boasting a robust frame designed to withstand demanding journeys. Éclair asserts that the e-bike is not only lightweight and user-friendly but also laden with cutting-edge technology.
Primarily tailored for commuters, the upcoming Éclair e-bike features an AI system that adapts to the rider’s habits, delivering assistance in harmony with the individual’s riding patterns and the terrain. Eliminating the need for manual switching between ride modes, the system excels in predicting rider requirements, providing maximum power during starts for effortless launches. Developed in collaboration with eBikeLabs, the eBike OS application forms the technological backbone of the Éclair’s AI-powered e-bike.
In a departure from traditional designs, the rider’s smartphone serves as the control screen for the Éclair e-bike, obviating the need for a physical display on the top tube or handlebars.
While the release details remain undisclosed, the Éclair e-bike is currently in development, with an imminent announcement expected to reveal the full specifications and pricing of this groundbreaking innovation.
