Hong Kong-Based E-Bike Specialist Urtopia Launches The Chord In Europe

Hong Kong-based electric bicycle specialist Urtopia has built quite a name for itself thanks to its sleek and elegant styling. Its newest bike, the Chord, is no different, and as its name suggests, the bike's design draws inspiration from a piano, with its black-on-white motif exuding a clean and classy aesthetic. 

Designed as a stylish city commuter, the Urtopia Chord offers an array of urban-focused features such as a built in 20-lux headlight, an intuitive handlebar-mounted display, and comfortable ergonomics. The bike is offered in either standard or semi-open step-through frame designs, the latter of which is dubbed the Chord X. In both instances, the battery is housed on the top tube, and not on the down tube as is common practice with other e-bikes. While this may give the bike a more top-heavy nature, it certainly adds to its chic, streamlined aesthetic. It isn't too heavy, either, as it weighs in at 21 kilograms.
