Technology never stays behind to amaze us with its wonders. A few years back you couldn’t even imagine what a printer could do, but now a 3D printer designed a bike.
Yes, you read it right, a German 3D printing expert BigRep has crafted a prototype 3D-printed electric motorcycle. All of the bike’s parts are 3D printed except its motor and battery.
This first 3D-printed electric motorcycle is called Nera. From the frame and the fork to the rims and even the airless tires, almost all of this motorcycle’s components have been 3D printed with machines produced by BigRep.

Its sleek lines are the work of designers Marco Mattia Cristofori and Maximilian Sedlak.
The result is a compact e-bike (190cm x 90cm x 55cm) that is fully functional. There’s currently no word on performance specs, however. It’s also unclear whether the project will give rise to a production model.
