Meh. I'd rather get testicular cancer and ride my swollen testes around like a hippity-hop. At least then I could buy some good weed, and the chicks would dig me.

This is not really in competition with the segway.

I think the design is pure genius. I have no real need for one...especially since I have several good bicycles that I ride all the time. 10 km range? Please, even my 8 yo can cover that distance on his bike.

But I still want one. I would be willing to drop $250-300 on one even with no real need for one.

$3000. Yeah right; people with that kind of disposable income aren't really looking for toys like this.]]>Apr 8th 2010 7:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/yikebike-foldable-electric-bicycle-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/yikebike-foldable-electric-bicycle-hands-on/

As long as the electric function is an adjustable assist, I think this development is a good thing. All tools can be abused and arguments such as yours could be made for the very computer on which you typed your post.]]>Apr 8th 2010 8:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/yikebike-foldable-electric-bicycle-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/yikebike-foldable-electric-bicycle-hands-on/Apr 8th 2010 9:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/yikebike-foldable-electric-bicycle-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/yikebike-foldable-electric-bicycle-hands-on/Apr 8th 2010 4:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/yikebike-foldable-electric-bicycle-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/yikebike-foldable-electric-bicycle-hands-on/Yeah, I would pay £600 for this but I'd never drop £3k on it. For that money I could pay for motorbike lessons, test, a nice bike, helmet, clothing and 2000 miles worth of petrol. I also wouldn't look like I was trying to pull a black unicycle out of my arse when I was sitting on it. :D

3500 euro ... with range distance of 10 km ...

Standard normal bike is much better for that distance and healthier!

Make it 1000 euro and triple the distance, I will buy 2 :)]]>Apr 8th 2010 4:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/yikebike-foldable-electric-bicycle-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/yikebike-foldable-electric-bicycle-hands-on/Apr 8th 2010 5:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/yikebike-foldable-electric-bicycle-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/yikebike-foldable-electric-bicycle-hands-on/
