We already mentioned ONYX Motorbikes at EMN in February 2018 with our “Mopeds are back” article. ONYX Motorbikes is a startup located in San Francisco (California, USA) and has developed the ONYX RCR. A fun-to-ride, nostalgic styled moped with a powerful 72V electric motor for a top speed of +/- 100 km/h. The moped accelerates from 0 to 50 km/h in 4 seconds. You’ll find the full specifications down below this post.
ONYX DRT KIT
The ONYX RCR moped can be ordered with a DRT KIT with off-road tires and extra protection.
ONYX Motorbikes: “This cool new video from Justin Yee of our ONYX family ripping around the Yucca Valley is one of our favorite things on the internet.”
Made in America
At the moment, ONYX Motorbikes has 2 factory production lines in California (San Francisco and LA) and does not depend on parts from Asia like many other manufacturers.
