The MEIJS Motorman

By 09-02-2015

The MEIJS Motorman: an electric motorbike that is not only environmentally friendly, economical and practical, but above all looks very stylish. A unique design by Ronald Meijs.

The MEIJS Motorman is handmade from high-quality materials, preferably derived from local suppliers. The design resulted from a combination of idealism and practical necessity when Ronald Meijs noted that (urban) transport is a growing problem. He searched for a solution keeping in mind that travelling should be fun and light. He created the Motorman and found the right balance between durability, functionality and design.

The MEIJS Motorman weighs only 45 kilos and is available in any colour. There is a high-speed version (45 km/h) and a lower-speed version (25 km/h). In the latter case you are allowed to ride without a helmet. The model is equipped with a rechargeable Lipo battery. A full charge delivers a distance of respectively 70 and 100 kilometers. You can charge the Motorman at home, easy and cheap. Driving costs less than 1 Eurocent per kilometer and the bike needs little or no service.
