Intelligent Energy has produced the ENV (emissions neutral vehicle) which has a range of 100 miles, a top speed of 50mph and virtually no sound. Engineers are considering adding sound of some sort to enhance safety.
ENV is lightweight, streamlined and aerodynamic. In an urban or off-road environment, it can reach speeds of 50 mph. It is also virtually silent (with noise emissions equivalent to an everyday home computer) and its emissions are almost completely clean. On a full tank, the ENV bike could be used continually for up to four hours without any need for re-fuelling. The bike can also be used by riders of any skill level with simple controls, via a throttle directly linked to the applied power. The bike has no gears and is strictly defined as a motorbike, although it feels to riders more like a very quick and responsive mountain bike.

this is good
Awsome! When and where can I get one?! Where have they been storing this bike the last few years, and why break it out now? Gas prices?
Put my name on one of these bad boys!
