i agree with what has been said regarding a pedelec on the road only having a limited power output and assist upto 15.5mph, esp considering you can ride them from 14... just i was thinking of these ebikes as being a way to stop pumping dead dinosaurs out the exhaust pipes of my daily use car and...

another nice bike, they certainly aint cheep though. i just see the price of that and think i could have like 4000watts more for not much more monies. it just doesn't look like its meant to be.
