i think the technology is cool, but i really don't see a market for it. cheap people and greenies will ride a bike, or even an e-bike like i have. thrillseekers will continue to ride like squids and would scoff at 35 mph and a 35 mile range. soccer moms will continue to feel threatened when in less than 2 tons of steel and wouldn't even consider this. who then would buy this for $10k?

Great technology, but I can't think of an environment where they could be used.

Toyota has the i-swing. SOOOOOOOOO much better. Makes the GM one look like it's assembled from VCRs.
