The e-bike that’s as speedy as a motorcycle or a car in the city
The flagship model in the range is now the Moustache Friday 27 FS Speed Dual, which has two batteries for a total power of 1,125 Wh or a range of around 80 km. That’s more than sufficient for getting around town quickly and with peace of mind on a daily basis.
With a top speed of 45 km/h, this e-bike can travel as fast as — if not faster than — motorcycles or even cars in city centers. In fact, the e-bike is much more easily maneuverable in heavy traffic and jams, weaving its way where other motorized vehicles would struggle to pass.
Its “Performance Line Speed” motor has a maximum torque of 85 Nm and a top speed of 45 km/h. All the controls (power, lights, horn) are located on the handlebars. Riders can also make use of a central unit with a GPS and a color touchscreen.
Note that certain rules apply when riding this “speed bike,” starting with wearing an approved helmet and gloves. And, being assimilated to a moped, riders will also require insurance to take it out on the road.
The standard Friday 27 FS Speed is priced €6,299 (approx. US$7,500), while the Friday 27 FS Speed Dual, with its extra PowerPack (500 Wh) is priced €7,199 (approx. $8,600).
