Artisan Electric Motorbikes; Setting the New Standard

When you hear the word artisan, you might think of confectionery or some kind of special, carefully crafted chocolate, a chocolatier, if you will. When you hear the words ‘electric motorbikes’, you probably have a good idea that they refer to a motorcycle that’s electric and you’d be spot on to think that way. However, Artisan Electric Motorbikes, means what exactly?

One word at a time

It would be fair to assume that the artisan is either the brand or a style that the electric motorcycle has been built in, but what exactly does it mean? You could take a quick look at Artisan Electric Motorbike at Wheels Motorcycles first, or have a read of this blog and then take a look. It would also be a safe bet to think that artisan has something to do with art, however, after a little digging, there’s a bit more to it than that.

Artisans are not the same as artists, yet it can be difficult to tell the difference as they do create works of art. During the Middle Ages, craftspeople organised themselves into guilds. Each city had its own guild of artisans—weavers, carpenters, shoemakers, and so on, they regulated wages and prices, maintained high standards, and safeguarded its members from outside competition.

In America, for example, most craftspeople have always been fiercely autonomous. Craftsmen, or artisans mainly create unique, elegant and desirable works of art for those who are well off enough to afford them. In more recent years, foods have been included among the artisan’s crafts, so you may buy artisanal cheeses, breads, and chocolates – if you have deep pockets, or perhaps they could be a great idea for a gift.

Painting a better picture now

Things are starting to make a little more sense now, so, when you hear Artisan Electric Motorbike you can think, unique, exquisite, hand crafted, made with love, something along those lines. Essentially, you should find that Artisan Electric Motorcycles are pure class and in a league of their own.

Electric motorcycles are reasonably new, similar to the relaxed laws surrounding cannabis farming in California, it’s only early days but the ball is rolling. When browsing the market, at a quick glance they already offer a complete range of bikes for different riders. The prices seem very competitive when compared to conventional combustion engine machines, especially when you consider that the running costs will be less for fuel and maintenance.

For starters, you don’t have an engine anymore, you’ve got an instant power/torque direct drive electric motor which will outperform any petrol or diesel counterpart. If you’ve never experienced the feeling before then you might not know what instant power feels like, you’ve really got to try it to fully appreciate the effect and feeling it produces, essentially, as soon as you turn the bike on it’s on and as soon as you turn the accelerator even a little bit the rear wheel will start to set you in an instant.

Truly amazing stuff and, the guys at Artisan have created, their range spans from a sports looking bike with big disc brakes, a cruiser looking beauty and 2 Lambretta style looking bikes, just without the array of mirrors you’d expect to see on a Lambretta. All in all, the range looks very impressive and certainly something to consider if you want to save some cash.
