E-bike “Essenza pura”:tradition meets technology and design
a design e-bike: in legno noce canaletto, faggio e fibra di carbonio
A design e-bike with a clean line, frame completely in canaletto walnut and beech, reinforced with carbon fiber that guarantees strength and lightness. The future of electric mobility meets craftsmanship.
Essenza pura was born from an idea of Antonio Belloni, architect, furniture maker, creator of the Belloni studio line and passionate about electric mobility and design. In 2018 he decided to combine within this project everything that best represents him, the technology that is linked to the tradition of wood craftsmanship. The result? An electric bicycle in wood and carbon fiber, with a unique and characteristic design.
Why Essenza Pura ?
“I chose this name for the triple meaning that the word Essence has for me.
Essenza recalls the essentiality, the purity of the lines and the simplicity, as a wood craftsman as I am by tradition, Essenza is the technical term that best represents the type of wood, finally, as if it reflected both these souls, in fact it is Essence of what most represents me: tradition combined with technology and design.
This for me is the sense of Essenza pura. “
