At times like these, we realise the importance and the wonders of technology. No matter how much we try to preserve the conventional ways, times are changing. The same goes for the production of motorcycles. If you think you have seen it all, think again! Verge Motorcycles’ latest bike will make your jaws drop.

The Finnish motorcycle builder has unleashed its TS. Local designer Teemu Saukkio is the mastermind behind the impressive design of this electric bike. The bike dons futuristic looks that seem almost too good to be true.

The TS comes with amazing specs but the one that caught our eye is the hubless rear wheel. Not to mention, concealed within the wheel rim is an attendant 80kW motor. With this combination, the bike will be operating sans belt or chain drive. This allows the body of the bike to store a larger battery.

The battery pack is capable of charging to 100 per cent within four hours with its onboard unit. According to Robb Report, It would be much faster with the use of a fast charger. The engine is able to produce 737 lb-ft of torque and zip from 0-60 in under four seconds with a top speed of 111mph.
