i didnt know if this belonged in E bikes or not

KTM is launching a electric bike called the freeride E im not huge on electric but this is a E bike i really like depending on the price it could be a real cool and popular thing with the amount of people moving to electric vehicles in the past few years heres a video and a link to KTM's site for it.

I like the fact that a major ICE manufacturer is getting into the scene.
However with a little more than 1/2 hour of riding time per charge I could not ride it to work and back. Without pedals that would make it even tougher.
A soon as we can generate our power from Dilithium crystals and escape from the limited duration output from lithium and other metallic blend derived batteries the whole electric vehicle concept will be alot more palatable.

yea 30 minutes sucks but you have to start somewhere right if theres space you can always upgrade the batteries right
