   As we all know that there are still many electric bike riders in the world. When someone laughs at those who ride bikes instead of driving the car,it's really hard to laugh at anyone riding the sleek (光滑的) looking Shadow ebike,as what its makers’ saying,that is “ the world's first wireless (無線的) power-assist electric bicycle”.

   The almost entirely wire-free ebike has no brake or gear cables (剎車與齒輪) ,and no ugly wires in all parts of it. All the necessary wiring and electronics that do exist,are tucked away inside the bike's front wheel. That includes the motor,lithium polymer battery and the Daymak Drive controller,which wirelessly keeps the bike going.    If your cell phone is running out of juice,the wheel also has a USB port,a charging port,and an LED battery power display.

   The Shadow ebike is currently selling for $1,999,which is clearly an expensive way to bike to work—but hey,at least you know your cell phone will be charged.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,回答下面的問題。

  1. There are hardly people to ride the electric bikes in the world,are there?


2. According to Shadow ebike's makers’ claiming,what is Shadow ebike?

3. Where are the necessary wiring and electronics of Shadow ebike?
