What you're looking at above is Audi's sleek e-bike, an ultra-light carbon fiber electric bicycle that has integrated Wi-Fi, can hit 50mph, and comes complete with a self-balancing mode that lets you ride it on just its back wheel, thanks to computer-controlled gyroscopes. Click here to view the first image in this week's funny school pictures gallery. Continue reading for a video of the Audi e-bike in-action.

Looks like the best thing ever. Name a price I will pay it.

While all high tech and shit, the seat doesn't look too comfortable.

Looks awesome and a nice buy, that is if it isnt insanely expensive.

Youtube comments say its going to be 45k? So sounds like its in the insanely expensive range. When I win the powerball tonight I am going to buy one of these.

cool idea, could see how it would have some interesting applications to future urban transport. however i dont understand the idea of spending thousands of dollars for a bike that has gyroscopes that help you manual. just learn how to do it on a real bike....

Feels like I'd just be even more sad when a black person steals it.

is it an electronic pedal assist like the trek valencia or does it actually propel itself?

Or you know you can just spend 800 dollars and build a great BMX bike and do everything in that video for real.

That thing is for pussies. It really isn't that difficult to do a wheelie on a bicycle if you really want to learn it.
