Overview

At onyx our focus is to reintroduce built tough, fun to ride, nostalgic motorbikes with an updated affordable electric drive-train. We believe every step counts in the efforts to push the world forward.

MOTORBIKES

At ONYX we are reintroducing a full-line of electric bikes taking inspiration from popular mopeds just as they were in the 70's and 80's. Both bikes offer the highest torque direct drive motors in their class while delivering a 2-stroke like power-band feeling throughout the entire throttle range.
