British Army trial new e-bike for battlefield

As part of a more agile army, soldiers will cycle battery-powered mountain bikes in order to have a silent approach when fighting the enemy. They can reach speeds of up to 40 mph and are able to be recharged on the battlefield. When the adversary is encountered, cyclists dismount and operate shoulder-fired rocket launchers like the Carl Gustav. #britisharmy #ebike #battlefield Subscribe to The Telegraph with our special offer: just £1 for 3 months.
