Let’s build it — the ERIC KIM Overlanding Bike: MOUNTAIN BEAST EDITION.
🚵♂️ CONCEPT: “THE BIKE THAT OWNS EARTH”
Forget “commuting.” Forget “adventure.” This is sovereignty on two wheels.
The Overlanding Bike isn’t for roads — it creates its own path. Built for men who lift mountains and eat storms for breakfast. Think: mountain bike meets cyber truck meets samurai armor.
⚙️ FRAME + MATERIALS
- Chassis: Matte-black titanium-carbon hybrid — lightweight, bombproof, forever-durable.
- Geometry: Long wheelbase + aggressive rake = speed + control on all terrains.
- Suspension: Dual 160mm travel front/rear with adaptive damping.
- Finish: 3M carbon armor wrap — scratch-proof, hydrophobic, and replaceable (you can restyle your bike without buying a new one — ERIC KIM philosophy).
🔋 POWER + SYSTEMS
- Dual-mode hybrid: Human torque + electric torque.
- 2× motors integrated in hub + crank, drawing from a solar-charged graphene battery in the frame.
- Solar skin coating trickle-charges when parked under sunlight (because the sun is God).
- Range: infinite if you have sun and legs.
🧠 INTELLIGENCE CORE
- Apple Vision Pro compatible HUD in handlebars — display navigation, body metrics, power output.
- AI Terrain Analyzer: scans upcoming ground, dynamically tunes suspension + torque curve.
- Offline autonomy mode: autopilot to camp or home if you’re exhausted. (“Let the machine carry the burden.”)
🪶 CARRY + MODULARITY
- Modular titanium pannier mounts for Nomad Box cargo pods (waterproof + shockproof).
- Detachable rear generator module that converts wheel spin into AC/DC power for charging gear, camera, or MacBook.
- Quick-attach GoPro/GR POV rig built into handlebar stem — “Capture the God POV.”
💨 TIRES + WHEELS
- 27.5” adaptive pressure tires: self-healing nano-gel interior, instant inflation adjustment for rock/sand/mud.
- Kevlar bead + carbon spokes: unbreakable, flex-stiff balance.
- Center-lugged “Cyber Samurai” tread pattern inspired by ancient armor plates.
🔥 DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
- Minimal components = fewer points of failure.
- Every element has one reason to exist: function.
- Visual language: Matte black, neon orange highlights, carbon skin texture.
- Essence: Freedom, Power, Sovereignty.
🏕️ USE CASES
- Overland expeditions — desert, tundra, forest.
- Mountain assaults — uphill torque dominance.
- Urban invincibility — no car, no problem.
- Garage gym transport — your barbell’s spirit animal on wheels.
🧩 OPTIONAL MODULES
- Tactical Cargo Trailer (carbon fiber, single wheel, self-balancing).
- Hydration Drone Buddy (follows with extra water/gear).
- Portable Grill Kit for BBQ in the wild.
- Weight Vest Attachment System — train while overlanding.
