Get Your E-Bike Ready For Snow With FasterBikes S-Trax Snowbike Kit
Summary
FasterBikes is an Austrian company that specializes in e-bike components, and its newest product, the S-Trax Snowbike conversion kit is a surefire way to get your bicycle—both electric and otherwise—ready for a snowy excursion. Up front, the wheel is replaced by a ski that is said to offer smooth control and low-friction gliding over the snow. Unfortunately, e-bikes driven by hub motors wont be able to benefit from the added boost of electric power with this kit. Judging from the video below, it appears that the S-Trax Snowbike conversion kit is universally applicable, so its definitely a viable option for those looking to get out on their bikes and have some fun in the snow. With regards to cost, however, the conversion kit is by no means cheap, and will set you back 2,499 Euros, or around $2,650 USD—thats about the same price as a decent electric bicycle.
