Kaneda Life

The most iconic motorcycle in anime is alive

thanks in part to 3D printing. Kaneda's ride from the 1988 cult film Akira, a critical component of what many consider to be the greatest anime of all time, has been 3D printed in tribute to the classic. It's been setting internet hearts aflame in the last few days, and we can see why.

Utilizing 3D printing and AI in its construction, the bike was built as a collaboration between chic Peugeot-owned e-bike maker DAB Motors and Vita Veloce Team, the Instagram post showing off this gorgeous thing suggests pre-orders will be open soon.
