Smithers Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) I think this might have been mentioned before but I can't be arsed to look. Anyway, what a stunning bit of kit Also https://damonxlabs.com/ Edited March 16, 2020 by Smithers Quote
Smithers Posted March 16, 2020 Author Posted March 16, 2020 That's an electric bike . Glad to see you're still as sharp as ever [mention]fastbob[/mention] Quote
Guest Richzx6r Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 Electric bikes are wrong just plain wrong.... Quote
dynax Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 Then SMIDSY will become SMIDSHY (hear), and more accidents will be blamed on bikers Quote
Smithers Posted March 16, 2020 Author Posted March 16, 2020 Luddites, the lot of you. What next? Bikes with automatic transmission; heaven forbid. Quote
dynax Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 Luddites, the lot of you. I am all for them but until the pig ignorant motorists gain some common sense and become less selfish ( they won't ever be unselfish), then they are a future disaster waiting to happen Quote

It's also a myth that loud bikes are safer, they're not. Also take a look at the video link. The technology going into this bike is just awesome. Edited March 16, 2020 by Smithers Quote
JRH Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 It’s the 3 hour charge time that kills it for me. Quote
dynax Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 [mention]Smithers[/mention] a bike doesn't need loud pipes to be heard, i can clearly hear bikes approaching from the back of me well before i can see them, but a lot of motorists will use any excuse they can to try and justify their own lack of common sense and selfishness when on the road Quote
Smithers Posted March 16, 2020 Author Posted March 16, 2020 It’s the 3 hour charge time that kills it for me. I agree, battery technology has a long way to go. But the range on this bike is such, that it's good enough for a blatt but a bike you would never tour on. Quote

bonio Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 Electric bikes are wrong just plain wrong.... ... until you actually try one. Then they're just plain fun Quote
JRH Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 Electric bikes are wrong just plain wrong.... ... until you actually try one. Then they're just plain fun I would go for one when charging and battery technology improves.Can’t fault the torque and power delivery from electric motors. Quote
Bender Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 I would have one, however finances don't agree. Quote
fastbob Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 I loath the very idea of it with every fibre of my being . Burn it , burn it with petrol and dance in the flames . Quote

Mr Fro Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 Pretty sure this has been posted before...I'd still have one even though I think electric is a bit wanky. Quote
