Mirrorcycle Blends Into Surroundings (Poorly)
Moto Undone (just like the top few buttons of my blouse!) is a conceptual electric motorcycle designed by Joey Ruiter. When seen from a blurry ant's-eye-view, the bike almost seems to disappear. When seen clearly at normal height, it looks like a dude humping a mirror because he's convinced he's the fairest one of all.
Moto is an electric motorcycle inside a block of polished metal. Its 1000w 48v electric hub motor will run for three hours, or around 90 miles, and runs silently. This stealthy motor combines with the chameleon-like skin to make a bike that you won't see -- or hear -- coming.
Sure, it may not be safe, but from a distance it looks like the rider is just flying above the asphalt.
Safety shmafety -- if I was wanted to compromise looking cool for safety I wouldn't have cut the entire top off my car and replaced the front seats with a couch. "Let me guess -- the back seat is a futon." Futon, please -- rocking chairs, bro. I have a lot of elderly friends.
Hit the jump for some less-invisible shots.

The electric-powered E'mo was designed by the StauffacherBenz Studio and looks like the lovechild of a golf cart, Jeep and Tonka truck (wild night!). I'd ride in it, but I wouldn't be caught driving it. At least not by the police -- I don't have a license! (Think your mom can... / Continue →
