Bike Europe - Launch of World’s 1st Hydrogen Fuel Cell E-Bike

Launch of World’s 1st Hydrogen Fuel Cell E-Bike

 

NICE, France – It operates without long battery charging times and plug-in socket requirements. Just replace the ready-to-use energy cartridges which can be suited to individual range needs. The hydrogen fuel cell e-bike which is launched today by Cycleurope and two partner companies, is truly remarkable. It is called Alter Bike. Cycleurope is launching it under the brand name Gitane. The bike maker calls it: "A new concept of electric bicycles which relieves the user from most of the constraints of electric mobility: No plug-in infrastructure for charging is necessary, lighter weight and range availability on demand."

Partnership

The Alter Bike is presented at the 20th Congress of "Le Club des Villes et Territoires Cyclables", which is held today in Nice. Alter Bike is developed in a partnership between three French firms – Cycleurope, Pragma Industries and Ventec. Pragma Industries is specialized in developing hydrogen fuel cells particularly suitable for portable applications and electric mobility. Ventec is a leading French company in the production of Battery Management Systems (BMS) for lithium batteries.
