This Cyber-Bike Got Its Inspiration From Tesla’s Cybertruck

Ever since the Tesla Cybertruck was unveiled, the design stirred the internet. YouTuber Casey Neistat made a Cyber-Bike based on the design of the car.

Ever since the Tesla Cybertruck was unveiled last year, the design stirred the internet. The design was the inspiration of the Cyber-iPhone that cost $15,000. And now, Casey Neistat, a popular YouTuber, made a Cyber-Bike based on the design of the Tesla Cybertruck.

The famous vlogger uploaded the video of the Cyber-Bike on his channel. In the video, he was riding an electric bike that has a similar design to the Cybertruck.

The actual bike is from SUPER73, a company that manufactures electric bikes. SUPER73 actually contacted the YouTuber, asking him if he would like to test its upcoming electric bike. But they needed to make sure that the public could not see the actual bike before its release. So Casey and the company’s staff worked together to turn the bike into the Cyber-Bike.

It was not an easy task applying the design of the Cybertruck onto a bike. But they succeeded by using an aluminum shell to cover the actual bike. The shell looks kinda bad, compared to the space=grade stainless steel cover of the Cybertruck.

Casey explained that the team first chalked out the desired design using cardboards. Then, they used aluminum sheets to build the bike’s actual shell.

To replicate some of the Cybertruck’s unique features like its storage unit located at the back and the cool headlight strip, the team used plastic. For example, they built a plastic storage unit at the back of the bike. The unit can easily contain a 6-pack beer.

Driving the bike is somewhat difficult. Because of the shell’s design, the handlebars stick out of the bike’s windows. So it is a challenge to turn the bike.

The actual bike underneath the shell is the SUPER73-RX. The electric bike comes with a 960W battery. On a single charge, it can cover 64km with a maximum speed of 32km per hour.
