Description from the seller
Manta5 Hydrofoiler XE-1 – The World's First Hydrofoil Electric Bicycle
A true jewel of nautical engineering and contemporary design: the Manta5 Hydrofoiler XE-1. Produced in New Zealand after seven years of meticulous R&D, this is the first electric bicycle in the world to literally fly over water thanks to foil technology (hydrodynamic wings).
It's not merely a watercraft, but a totally new experience that combines competitive cycling with the freedom of water-ski-like flight. An extraordinary piece for lovers of exclusive tech gadgets, superyacht toys, or collectors of cutting-edge design.
• Hydrofoil Technology: Equipped with high-strength carbon fiber foils (rear wing about 2 meters, front wing 1.2 meters) that drastically reduce drag, allowing planing on water and riding over waves.
• Electric Propulsion and Pedal Assist: Silent 460 Watt electric motor offering 7 selectable levels of assist, perfect for intense training or relaxed cruising.
• Water-Repellent Battery: Lithium-ion battery with IP67 waterproof rating. Range up to about 180 minutes (depending on assist level used and rider weight).
• Premium Materials: Aeronautical aluminum frame (T6-6061) TIG-welded, lightweight and highly resistant to corrosion in marine environments.
• Speed: Estimated cruising speed between 11 and 14 km/h, with a top speed of around 21 km/h.
• Modularity: Easily dismantled in a few minutes to be conveniently transported in a car trunk or stored on a vessel.

1. Manta5 Hydrofoiler XE-1 bicycle complete with front and rear foils.
2. Original Manta5 Hydropack battery.
3. Original fast-charge charger.
4. Original manual and tool kit for quick assembly/disassembly.
