Having said that - we would like to try something - we will happily provide spare batteries (and mod packs) for cross country, green lane, trail riders or enduro rally - and even bring a few bikes for an electric enduro relay race to get press and media coverage. Interested? Best time? Best place? Best riders? We do have fast change battery modification packs now, but batteries cost £4,000 so you need to be pretty serious about enduro.

For hire operators, a second battery is much cheaper than a second bike! For people considering one of these for Trail riding / enduros etc away from electrical outlets, 1 1/2 to 2 hours riding is quite limited for a whole day, but changing the battery pack at lunchtime and getting another 2 hours... thats enough riding for most of us!! Apart from that, what a great looking machine. I have watched a couple of videos on You Tube, and yes, I'm impressed!

One charging, while the other is in use. Yeah, why not ship it with two batteries and this easy was to swap them. One charging, while the other is in use.
