很多車廠做汽車外,他們都會做一些配件商品. 產品之一是單車, 看幾個單車是從車廠做出來. Opel同Smart是電動單車. 最後,這些價格是美金.
Audi duo
Renovo Bicycles isn't convinced carbon fiber is the dream material for bicycle construction. Hardwood (yes, real wood) frames roll out of their shop in Portland, Ore. — each beautifully handcrafted and customized to fit the owner. The promises: a smoother ride, more durability and even more stiffness than carbon fiber. In 2011, Audi commissioned Renovo to build its own hardwood bike, the duo, named for the German automaker's early hybrid concepts. Beyond the hollow, single-piece frame — an absolute work of art in itself — the duo includes a grease-free belt drive and LED lights. Alas, production of this high-fiber bike ended in August 2012.
BMW Cruise Bike
BMW's website recommends that riders buy a gray merino wool sweater to wear when pedaling their Cruise Bike, and no wonder — you'll need something to balance against the available bright pink handlebar grips and rims. We're more in tune with a blue-on-white paint scheme, matched to BMW's logo colors, and those intricate wheels that lace the spokes in eight sections. Unlike big-box-store bikes, the Cruise Bike's aluminum frame has no visible welds, but for these kinds of details, you'll need to drop $1,201 at your local BMW dealership.
BMW M Bike
With the BMW M5 now piping fake engine sounds through the stereo, it's nice to see BMW also building a high-performance vehicle that lets us make our own noise. The M Bike features a full carbon frame available in five sizes (meticulously glossed and unpainted, just like the roof on the M6) and an integrated water bottle cage you can actually use (unlike the cupholder in an M3). As with its M cars, BMW kept the M Bike's style muted and conservative, save for a few red accents along the wheels that hint of its $2,799 price.
Colnago for Ferrari CF8
Italian racing bike manufacturer Colnago spared no expense with its handmade CF8. The wheels, down to the last hub and spoke, are all carbon fiber — a precious weight-saving measure not found on Ferrari's road cars. The gear shifting is done electronically, promising faster, harder shifts than a mechanical system, and the carbon-fiber seat guarantees "less friction in the groin area." The price is estimated at about $17,000, and just like the real thing, it'll be very hard to get. Only 200 will be made for 2013
Impec Lamborghini Edition
Not satisfied with its first foray into cheap mountain bikes, Lamborghini went to Impec, a high-end Swiss manufacturer, and churned out this $32,500 exotic. A full carbon frame, 22 speeds, hidden brake cables, a superleggera ("superlight") weight of 15.1 pounds and yellow leather from the Aventador complete the package. Only 50 will be sold at Lamborghini dealers, but since Lamborghini doesn't offer factory-prepped roof racks, you'll need to mount the Impec on a Ferrari FF.
Mercedes-Benz All Mountain
Despite what the TV commercials say, sometimes the G-Wagen's triple-locking differentials are moot. When the most hardcore off-road Mercedes-Benz vehicle won't take the narrowest of trails, the All Mountain and its 30-speed transmission will, provided you're in shape to tackle them. Shocks from Fox Racing — the same company that supplies parts for the wild Ford Raptor — allow nearly 5 inches of wheel travel, which is huge for a bicycle. The hydraulic disc brake system offers more precise control downhill than any electronic aid, and on top of all this wizardry, you can ride under low-clearance bars in the city without damaging anything. If you do that with a G63, you'll cry when the repair bill arrives.
Opel RAD e
Opel started out building sewing machines before switching to bikes in the late 1800s, so unlike many of the automaker-branded bikes on our list, the electric RAD e is a totally legit exercise. While its curvy frame suggests otherwise, this concept from the 2012 Geneva Motor Show uses a hollow, pressed-steel frame in place of pricier aluminum, similar to that of its 1928 motorbike. The 250-watt electric motor dishes out 30 lb-ft of torque and promises up to 90 miles of battery life, while a smartphone-based "control unit" activates the motor and gives real-time speed and range.
Porsche Bike RS
In true Porsche Rennsport fashion, the Bike RS is the raciest street-legal model the factory can sell. As such, the $8,538 price brings a full carbon frame, 20 speeds and an understated gunmetal-gray paint job laced with bright blue accents (the blue wheel hubs remind us of the exotic Carrera GT). As befits a proper racing bike, don't think of going for a ride without clamping your riding shoes into the pedals.
Porsche Bike S
For a few hundred dollars more than Porsche's Doppelkupplung — the optional $4,080 gearbox on the 911 — you can tear up the streets on a new Bike S. An aluminum frame with a carbon fork, 11-speed belt drive (four more than the 911) and hydraulic disc brakes make the Porsche shield more convincing than gimmicky. Unfortunately, Turbo-style rims don't come in bicycle sizes, so you'll have to live with these ho-hum spokes.
S-Works McLaren Venge
Everything McLaren does is painstakingly finished to the last micron, including the soap dispensers in its employee bathrooms — no lie. So when it partnered with Specialized, McLaren simply downscaled its Formula One expertise to two wheels and discarded the engine. A 2-pound carbon-fiber frame, computer-modeled aerodynamics and a stack of speed graphs and charts proving how fast the Venge is compared with other exotic bikes bodes well for McLaren's reputation. We're surprised it doesn't cost much more than $8,000.
Smart ebike
Real minimalists will skip smart's other puny electric vehicle, the fortwo electric drive, and hop on its new ebike for a tenth of the price. A 0.4-kilowatt battery, 200-watt electric motor and sophisticated brake regeneration system seem to disappear within this stylish city bike, which can power the pedals at speeds up to 15 mph. Several modes change the pedal resistance from full electric assist to pure leg muscle. A smartphone cradle with USB charging is included. The ebike's electric range, at 62 miles, nearly matches that of the fortwo — and no surprise, it's even easier to park. Smart says it will sell the bike in select cities later this year.
