    Masterflex cooperates with Hawk Bikes on development of hydrogen-powered bicycle
Publication Date:22-April-2005
Source: European Intelligence Wire
German company Masterflex, which specialises in the processing of high-tech plastic materials, has collaborated with Hawk Bikes E&M, the German manufacturer of bicycles, on the development of a so-called 'Cargobike', which uses hydrogen fuel cells for energy.

The new bicycle is intended as an alternative to battery-powered bicycles. The fuel cells are said to provide five times as much energy, despite being the same size; with a hydrogen cartridge, the bicycles can travel up to 250km. The two companies expect to be able to deliver the first Cargobikes by the beginning of 2006.
