Here is a great review of the bike by Jalopnik:

Obviously, there are drawbacks, such as price, but that is often the case with new technology. The article does do a very good job of detailing the performance and feedback advantages of electric bikes though.

interesting... there have been several good articles about EB's and the viability of daily use across several riding disciplines.

to date, I can not see one application that would make me want to give up my air pumper for an electric bike... However, I am sure that will change over the next few years.

The torque characteristics alone warrant an EB.

I found the increased feedback that they describe to be particularly interesting.

I'm not sure if it was this bike specifically. But they were ripping around laguna seca with a electric bikes when I was there for motogp.. Very weird and quiet!

Cool. I might be able to make it out to the Isle of Man TT for the TTzero portion in a couple years. Wife agreed to try and time our European vacation to coincide with it.

Think I found a bike to replace by XB9R, now if I can get away with selling a child or three....
