The Faraday Porteur is the ultimate electric propelled utility bicycle - the first electric bicycle built by, and for, cyclists.  Dubbed "the ultimate modern utility bicycle" by the Oregon Manifest bicycle design competition, the Faraday Porteur is an elegant, powerful electric bicycle - a high-quality city bike that is comfortable and effortless to ride – with or without the electric motor.

The Faraday bike company is looking for funding and taking pre-orders on Kickstarter. They're Kickstarter page is one of the most elegant and informative I've ever seen as well. Check it out. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/faradaybikes/faraday-porteur
