Hey all, you have to see this! A pedal bike that can reach speeds up to 50 mph. http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/tech/2009/07/07/m agnay.germany.erockit.cnn |

Prices change in time - the idea has real merit though and should be followed up on. EZ |

Why bother pedal at all? It's obvious that the human power is superfluous compared to the power added by the motor=battery. $40,000 novelty bike. |

can't hear the video at work but from the looks of it if it was way cheaper it could be pretty sweet. I mean a little commuter that you NEVER have to fill up?!?! I would probably kill myself on it though. |

Why bother pedal at all? Hmm I dunno? maybe burn some calories, remain active, etc...

Hmmm.. I wonder if it's legal in the bicycle lanes. It could be better than a scooter for getting around inside cities & large towns. Though 40K is pretty silly. Drop that down to 4K and maybe I'll dream about it On Edit: When I say "scooter" I mean GoPeds and Bladzes etc.. like I see in SF. (Message edited by Metalstorm on July 08, 2009) |

Well the idea is not too original, we have had Mopeds for years.
