An autonomous electronic bicycle comprises a frame, a front wheel that can be powered by a first electronic motor, a rear wheel that can be powered by a second electronic motor, and handlebars that can steer the front wheel which can be controlled by a third electronic motor. The autonomous electronic bicycle can operate autonomously, traveling to a chosen destination based on sensor information. In addition, the autonomous electronic bicycle can be ridden by a rider as a traditional bicycle. While being ridden manually, the autonomous electronic bicycle can determine a set of safety constraints, such as maximum speed or a maximum incline, to place on the autonomous electronic bicycle while being ridden by the rider based on determined rider characteristics about the rider.
