SUPER73 has just partnered up with Texas-based apparel company Howler Brothers to release a new capsule collection… and a custom S2.
The limited capsule collection is the largest collection SUPER73 has executed to-date, and shows off a plethora of options for riders and their bike alike.
The bike, by the way, is a custom, limited edition S2 – a machine that now carries an untouchable homage to the mellow slow culture perusing our beaches and ‘burbs proper.
Naturally, SUPER73’s Head of Sales & Channel Marketing is more than a little excited about the partnership:
“We’re beyond stoked to announce this partnership between SUPER73 and our buds at Howler Brothers… Howler embodies the spirit of the outdoors, and we hope the community can feel the energy both brands put into this limited capsule.”
– Jake Perucca, Head of Sales & Channel Marketing, SUPER73 (SUPER73) |
Let’s take a look at the Howler Brothers x SUPER73-S2 and see how much y’all will have to fork over for this pretty piece of hippy juju.
Limited-Edition Howler Brothers x SUPER73-S2: Specs and Parts
According to SUPER73’s recent email to us, this new S2 offering has been tricked out “Baja style.” It’s not often that an electric motorcycle is dubbed as ideal for both “urban commutes and off-road adventures,” but here she stands.
In fine form, SUPER73 has kept the S2’s heart intact, meaning that full throttle with all limiters off gets you around 28mph, a charge time of 6-7 hours, and a range of anywhere from 45-70 miles, depending on the ride mode chosen (more details on SUPER73’s website).
If you think that ain’t enough yank for the bank, now might be a good time to remind you that this bike weighs a scant 84lbs – perfect for evening beach outings, though not ideal for highway maneuvering.
Adjust accordingly
Front suspension and a pair of fender guards join a host of welcome accessories; here is the list of parts that went into converting SUPER73’s S2 into a good-times cruiser:
- Custom painted frame and battery casing
- Custom brown leather Kanebilt seat
- In-frame molle panel with custom Vedavoo bag
- Custom fabricated fly rod tube holder
- Moved By Bikes shortboard surf rack
*JUST IN: The Limited-Edition Howler Brothers x SUPER73-S2 was available to purchase for a limbo-low MSRP of $3,800 MSRP (accessories extra), though as of March 5th, their website is showing as SOLD OUT and a note stating that the bikes will be shipped out in 2-4 weeks.*
