The bike looks good. I assume they took an ICE bike and converted it.

Nope- scratch built monocoque frame.  or however you spell it.   :o

They're only asking for $5K.  It'll be interesting if they get it.  I haven't seen any other electric bike projects funded on KS.

The race they are trying to go to is July 10-12 in NJ near Philadelphia.  I will try to go to it if they get there. 

Maybe I can meet up with Straightedg4lif and we'll have an electric motorcycle party!
