And an electric assist bike is MUCH cheaper and available right now. I built mine with premium parts for about $1400. It climbs any hill without pedaling if I want t avoid it. Top speed 22 mph. I built it for commuting, and I love commuting on it (nearly 600 miles since June 10). Honestly, I don't know what he means by people hating the idea of a bike commute. I love it

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
