Denali Pro
The Denali Pro is a new kind of bike that is designed for aggressive recreational riding by skilled cyclists. It's like a fully suspended BMX bike for big kids, but much faster and you don't have to pedal to experience the thrills. It's somewhere between moto-cross and mountain biking. It has the torque and hill climbing power of a medium sized dirt bike (175cc) but runs silent, like a bicycle. A good rider can get about 5 feet of air and land elegantly due to the expert level downhill racing suspension componentry.

The Denali TorkAtak is the world's first production electric trials bike. It weighs 142 pounds (charged). It can perform and climb obstacles with power levels similar to a 250cc two-stroke, but it has none of the usage limitations. The TorkAtak will perform fairly rigorous trials manuvers for 20 to 45 minutes on a charge. The supplied charger will restore a charge in about 45 minutes. A generator can power the charger for remote use. Some generators can recharge the bike directly, with no charger needed. With a 2 kW generator, charge times can be reduced to as little as 10 minutes, with no battery damage.
