Beautiful. IMHO.

    I don't get why they have the top tube like that? It just doesn't look right. The rear hub looks agriculturally heavy. Looks like someone has broken a wheel and couldn't find a matching pair and bought any old replacement wheel of ebay.

    Maybe Pininfarina are trying too hard to be different. When there is a good reason why other bikes look the way they do.

    Presume that's a light on the fork...why is it pointing at the sky and positioned where it will cast a shadow of the front wheel? :shock:

    So, an e-bike for hipsters? The designer of several Ferraris appears to have taken inspiration from the 2CV
