Pretty kewl, and undoubtedly the eventual future of our sport. But
is that $10k in American? And about $4k for extra batteries? So the
initial cost for a normal day of riding would be about $18k? (bike
plus 2 extra batteries). Can I charge it from my automotive cigarette
lighter? ;-p
A hundred and ninety-six pounds is fairly light, but I would've
expected it to be even lighter... around 150-170 or so. Copper's
pretty heavy though, huh?

Oops, you're correct, must have hit the wrong key on the calc, missed
the 0.2 of the 2.2 lb = 1 kg.
My 200 is only about 8 lbs heavier (stock).

I just used an online conversion calc and posted before I saw your
reply. For some reason my posts take a while to show up. It's all
good.

A company named Denali came out in the late with a range of bikes that
included enduro, moto and trials. I've had the electric trials bike on my
Christmas list ever since I saw it. Indoor riding. They apparently have
undergone some changes to their business model and are operating now as:
http://www.electricmoto.com/
A lot of interesting back story on them can be found here:

Scroll down to the history and what we do sections for some insight into
what their startup hurdles look like. They seem like such an utter long
shot that I assume Deeney already has one:)
