Adam Vollmer and his company, Faraday Bicycles, are leading the way with an electric bike that will get you to work with a smile on your face. In the video above, Vollmer speaks passionately about all the benefits a daily commute by bike and introduces Faraday’s flagship product, the Faraday Porteur – the bike that was dubbed “the ultimate modern utility bike” by the Oregon Manifest bicycle design competition.

I’m sold on this bike and would gladly dish out the cash if I had $3500 to spare.
