What's this vehicle? Looks like an e-bike, if I didn't knew better

[-] bstix@feddit.dk 25 points 1 month ago

It's bicycle with a helping engine, but it's not electric.

The thing that looks like a battery is the fuel tank. The engine is the metal attachment left and below of the center of the back wheel.

Random fact: The first motorized vehicle to drive across the USA was a bicycle. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_A._Wyman

It is probably a 60ccm "Saxonette" engine. Here is an article (both in German) with some bikes from that era equipped with that engine.

Could just be a fan of artist René Magritte

More like I was tired and probably a bit drunk and I wrote something stupid on Lemmy. Kill me. I've never heard of object permanence before but I think I understood it well enough at an early age when I drew dinosaurs and their heads continued off page because I didn't like drawing them.
