Xubaka electric motorbike
The comeback of the motorbike
The emergence of electric engines has redefined the rules of light motor vehicles, Xubaka is redesigning the lines of these new generation motorbikes by calling on the technical expertise of Antidote Solutions.
Setting up the supply chain
When Benoit Marty contacted us in summer 2019, Sodium had a prototype of an electric moped, a light motorbike equivalent to 49.9 cc. We started the collaboration by working on the supply of the components. Brakes, stem, handlebars, wheels… We are offering a maximum of already industrialised bicycle pieces, which are therefore cheaper, lighter and well finished.
Industrialising the processes
In 2020, Xubaka entrusted us with a second mission : to design an industrial version of its electric motorbike. 3D modelling, drawing of parts… a first pre-series of 10 Sodium mopeds was released in autumn 2020. A series of 100 units then went into production at Milc Industry.
The collaboration continues
Today we are still working with Xubaka on the evolutionary and corrective maintenance part. This mainly includes : – the development and fine-tuning of the traction chain – the programming and configuration of the controller – the interfacing of new brakes with the Sodium chassis.
