"If riding a bike on a daily basis is too much of a challenge for you, you
might be tempted to opt for an e-bike.

The issue with those is that the production of the batteries consumes a lot of
natural resources such as lithium or rare-earth elements which require
extensive and often environmentally impactful mining procedures.

French entrepreneur Adrien Lelièvre, however, has engineered a pioneering,
sustainable solution.

The inventor, who has a background in electronics, designed and patented an
e-bike called Pi-Pop, one that doesn’t use lithium batteries but
supercapacitors."
