    Any interest in committing to pre-launch price for a limited run hard tail superbike ? Round One Pricing added- through April 11th.

    Any interest in a Bosch based Ultimate Commuter Pro ?

    Agree, I believe the liability issue will merely mitigate and delay the trend towards consolidation.

    Any interest in a Bosch based Ultimate Commuter Pro ?

    My thoughts on the Chris's video and Mike's post. Mike and others consider Bosch to be price gouging on batteries. Chris compares the ebike business to air conditioners years ago after which there was a large consolidation of manufacturers. Although very unlikely, there is a chance for a...
