50mph pedal bike

Watch the vid, this particular bike is different. There is no gas motor, just an electric one powered by pedaling.

For $40,000, you get electric, or for $300, you get gas. Hmmm...

I rather pick gas!

New technology has to start somewhere. I think it is a really cool idea.

needs to be cheaper, but this is the simple answer to in city transportation. Fuck prius/hybrid cars that require those fucking huge ass batterys.

sweet bike. what do those cost?

This electric bike is kinda silly.. can't I just use a regular throttle if I'm going to cruise 50mph on battery juice?
I don't like that it's trying to hide the whole part about needing to charge it up if you expect the electric assist.
