The future is already yesterday. An aircraft manufacturer introduced a motorbike – the first of its kind – fully printed in three dimensions (3D). Light rider was mounted with Scalmalloy a special aluminum base alloy but with the resistance of titanium

motorcycle APWorks was developed by the company of Airbus group (better known by aircraft) that is dedicated to the creation and marketing of products made with new materials (such as Scalmalloy) or innovative techniques (as is still the 3D printing).

the special alloy reduced the weight of the bike for only 35 kilos: only the frame weighs six

With the ability to accelerate from zero to 45 kilometers per hour in just. three seconds, the Light Rider reaches a maximum of 80 kilometers per hour.

the electric motor has a range of 60 kilometers.

There are only the ‘bad’ news. APWorks will only sell the 50 copies, each costing 50,000 euros
