If you’ve ever been to Indonesia, you know just how much locals and tourists alike rely on motor-scooters and bicycles to get around. The Sea Sider by the automotive wizards at Dues Ex Machina combines the power and versatility of a motorcycle with the feel of a bike to create a vehicle that is tailor-made for a sunny trip to the beach.
Dues Ex Machina went the extra mile to give the Sea Sider that bicycle vibe by sourcing vintage bike parts from the Indonesia region and incorporating them into the mix. You can really see the results of this referential appropriation in elements such as the Sea Sider’s handlebars, headlight, and front basket. The Sea Sider features a custom-cut and welded metal frame that is covered with treated wooden slats to lend it an authentic touch of nostalgia.
A practical as it is beautiful, the Sea Sider is both powerful and lightweight. Its controls have been stripped down to the essentials to increase overall ergonomics and functionality. Want to get down to the beach to catch a few waves? The Sea Sider’s handmade surf rack is a perfect way to transport that surfboard to the beach!
