Ryvid Anthem E-motorcycle First Look -
The Ryvid Anthem, an electric motorcycle designed by Dong Tran, displays many innovative features. Notably, a modular design, flat stainless-steel frame, removable and wheelie battery pack, and a motor mounted on the swingarm.

Stationed to start production in late 2022, the motorcycle, priced at $7,800, targets Asian markets where more sustainability and adaptability are required.
