A nod to an electric motor pioneer

The control panel for The Faraday electric bike features a button at the top to turn the motor on. That powers a pedal-assist system as well as rear and front lights. And, in a nod to electric motor pioneer Michael Faraday, for whom the bike is named, the tail of the letter "y" ends in a electric plug jack.
