Strange how many are entering this tiny market for assisted road race style bikes. With Cytronex occupying it virtually alone for years, Annad joined in not too successfully a little while ago, with Freygeist currently in an adjoining thread (hinted at being the Annad again) and now this Boston Ze.

A side-by-side ride comparison is probably needed. This Boston Ze appears to have no freewheel since they claim it's always in a regen mode. Rather oddly they say that in Bike + mode which is maximum regen, the rider efficiency is at it's highest. I would have said the opposite.

Keep the bike porn coming shemozzle999 that bike has only one flaw, the bars should be drop bars and (two flaws) it needs a range extender battery.

Is it just me or wouldn't one of their normal folding bikes with a mid-motor kit make more sense? I can see where you can fit a HL battery to that frame.

What I like is being able to slip it into a bag and carry it on-board trains that don't carry bikes for free. And the wheels are the right size for once :rolleyes:

I think I am in love!
