Winners of the first-ever zero emission electric super bike race at the Isle of Man Circuit, United Kingdom, these young men secured a third place podium finish in one of the world’s most notorious circuits

With a silent buzz the 150 cc monster comes to life and as the rider giving the demo, accelerates the bike through the busy channeled roads of the Bhosari MIDC, one cannot help but admire the fact that a 150 cc non-geared electric bike won an international tournament in a nation far away. That they achieved this in spite of having no sponsors or backing of any kind puts them in a league of their own. And while most would think that they are still gloating on their two month old victory, there is news -- they are already working on a new design for next year’s championship. And if they are up to the challenge, then the next generation version of the electric super bike will be leaner, meaner and a lot faster.

Speaking more about it, team manager Ketan Mhasawade says, “The Tune Trial Extreme Grand Prix (TTXGP) is a part of the FIM (Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme) and conducted the world’s first ever zero emission electric super bike race at the Isle of Man Circuit, in the United Kingdom. The circuit is notorious as it has the distinction of being one of the most treacherous circuits in the world, and we managed to secure a third place podium finish during the race. While the race went into oblivion, unheard of back here in India, our bike and performance as far as the engine is concerned was greatly appreciated.”
