Acer is racing into virgin territory and – everybody look out – it's coming armed with AI: the Taiwanese PC maker is launching an E-bike that is apparently designed for urban commuting.
The cycle uses an “intelligent vehicle control box” that is said to adapt to route conditions, pedaling power and “rider preference for a smooth journey”, because who wants to arrive at their destination with an aching posterior. According to the PC biz, the ebii’s “wheel set at the motor position has a strong single-sided fork design and a highly efficient 250/350 W motor with 48 V CAN bus and 40 Nm torque performance, enabling assisted riding of up to 25 kilometers per hour, and can be configured as a front, center, or rear hub according to the rider’s needs.”
