Are brands obsessed with 2 wheels? YSL launches an exclusive and green-tech e-bike with Super73.

YSL x Super73 launch an exclusive electric bike.

Bikes always send a message of strength and freedom in editorials, which is why brands love them. Do you remember Celine’s ‘22 summer collection?

But Sain Laurent went one step further, or one wheel forward, and created its own electric bike in partnership with SUPER73.

The lifestyle adventure brand based in Orange County, CA that develops products to help fuse a motorcycle heritage with youth culture embraces the Saint Laurent project, called Super73 S2.

The all-black matte body of the electric model matches innovation with classic aesthetics. Its custom leather seats and handles remember the cafe racer style, standing out behind the unique headlight, bringing the brand name printed on them.

The fuel tank was changed by an electric battery pack, put in the same place where the fuel tank is usually located, keeping sustainability throughout the structure.

The edition designed by Anthony Vaccarello, the Creative Director of the brand was inspired by the classic American motorcycle culture, but as an innovative e-bike, it’s compatible with iOS and Android devices.

With 50 exclusive and limited copies, 25 for the US and 25 for Europe, this S2 electric bike could be yours for US$6.500, but you'll have to run as hard as a bike to can get it.
