Pfff, all these poor people complaining, this is cheap compared to the work that went into it... yea I wish I can buy it :/ (T_T)
-
All this talk about highly intelligent design and innovation, but not a single rider in this video is wearing a helmet. Those nifty knit hats won't do much to absorb impact.
-
What if i don´t have such a smart spy-phone? I still use my 18 year old Nokia, ´cause it does what a mobile should do - it receives urgent phone calls ;-)
-
Is it possible to remove the NSA compliant wifi module ???
-
So, I was watching Weeds, and I literally thought this was just a joke, but wow, to my surprise, it's not.
-
Was all pumped and ready to add this to my $800 bike, until I noticed it's fkn $1200! I could get a full electric bike for similar price here in Canada...
-
You do not want to save the world, you are only greedy. 949 $ for this? I hope you go bankrupt.
-
Who else was brought here by the show Weeds?
-
Amazing and ecofriendly product
-
900 $ crazy whith that i buy a scooter.... lame
-
Anyone else notice that they only show one side of the wheel in this video? (The left side) And when they do show they right side of the bike, I realized the chain drive is on the opposite side indicating that either the wheel can operate forwards and backwards, or the video is flipped horizontally.
-
cual es el secreto?
-
You'd figure the spinning wheels would keep l the battery charged
-
The company is taking its sweet ass time developing the product, people have been waiting for more than a year to get theirs, it is like a kick-starter from hell. Not a fan of people developing a brand to sell a technology that they can't bring to market yet, I am sure this will bust at this pace.
-
Could you not have two fitted and while the rear one powers the bike the front one is being charged ?
-
Did anyone think about the concept of someone hacking into all the copenhagen wheels and making everyone fall over?
-
Two years later and still not a single product delivered to real customers. And they called this a "PRODUCT RELEASE"
-
what the f*** is this s*** can people really not pedal themselves while commuting is it that hard do your legs not work ? might as well get an electric bike
-

-
