Woodworker brings her skills to sustainably made e-bikes
Woodworker Evie Bee published two books detailing the process she undertook in designing and building her electric bicycle, Electraply. The name is a play on the words electric and plywood, with the majority of the bike made from sustainably sourced poplar ply. Birch ply is used for visual aesthetics on the outside of the bike.
A 26-inch front wheel motor and 36-volt battery power the bike. A fan of the iconic scrambler motorcycle design, Bee was inspired to combine her love of the old design with the mechanics and materials of the modern day. Bee is focusing her studies and career on coppicing, and, with projects like the Electraply, is finding ways to merge a dedication to caring for forests with the creative skills she honed while working as a film set model maker.
