Another Porsche Bike?!? The Porsche Bikester!

The more I look, the more Porsche Bikes I find. This one is an oddity for sure! The 1997 UK and Germany brochures (1997-1998 models) included a Porsche Bikester. The silver and red bicycle with large fenders, fully adjustable seat post and handlebars, integrated front lights, front and rear spring suspension, luggage rack, and three-spoke rims looks more like a custom street cruiser than the other mountain bikes Porsche sold at the time. I have never seen a Porsche Bikester listed on eBay or other sales websites. This must also be quite rare. The name Bikester is likely a combination of the Porsche "Bike" and "Speedster" names. Now I've seen 18 different Porsche Bike models from 1990 to 2021.
