I don't under stand this part about the batt pack...
"Lithium-ion cells in bespoke and adjustable arrangement"

The bespoke I know but that adjustable part.....Can these guys rewire cells on the fly? For higher top speed after you get to speed? I love the AGNI motor. Seems to have a good amount of respect. I'm thinking of doing this motor on my Zero for the higher rpm.
