Stylish, very neat and clean looking.

That is sub zero cool...... under 15 kilos with an 11amp/hr batt and $2,250 is about £1,500. That has to be a bargain.
If they ever get imported here, i could be well tempted.

I always wonder if there is a point to use carbon frames with e-bikes.
The carbon parts save about 1kg - 1.2kg in total weight, so the pull factor must be the curves.
Curves work in cars, making small cars look expensive - should they work the same way in bikes?

The pull factor probably also in the word carbon, the fashion element of being different. Titanium has a similar cachet.

That's an old bike. We've discussed it twice before on this forum. Here's a picture of it I took 2 years ago in Shanghai. It was also on a stand at the NEC show in 2014:

Yeah I kind of remember that. The website is still saying Pre-Orders being taken though

Like all Chinese bikes, the factory makes them then adds your branding. That's the third branding I've seen, and there's probably a lot more. I would guess that the guy that's advertising want's to get enough firm orders before committing to buying a container of them from the factory.

I think we were quite close to seeing some with Kudos written on them at one point.

Yes, I have mentioned it before but now it is half the price:

still too much money for what it is.

Even cheaper if you buy direct:

I know. Woosh were offered those earlier this year.
The problem is discontinuation.
