My back hurts just looking at it.

Looks more like a Lego product than a Ford.

What an amateurish CAD rendering. Is this legitimately from Ford?

Where’s the training wheels?
Look for the Obama BeanieCopter to hit the market next year.

Fabian Cancellara was ahead of the curve, using electric drives to cheat

Might as well get in on the ground floor on this.

Once nobama (in his second term where has has more “flexibility”) and his minions fully implement Agenda 21, we’ll all be riding something like this.

It looks like a device to sterilize SWPLs.

It all depends on how far or fast.

Tooling around town would be fine, but fldefinitely nothing serious.

Pee Wee had a better bike than this.

Gimme a Honda moped, please.

Frankly, I like the union designed, government issued bike better.
You can paddle like hell and never get anywhere.

You can spot folks who rode those bikes to work -- by the stripes of mud up their backs...

That thing is a farce.

4 wheels, 300 plus horsepower on gasoline or no deal!!

I put my bicycle with a whizzer engine on it in the trash on my 16th birthday and i won’t get on one for anyone EVER!!!

duh...mo-peds were out like 40 years ago.

Trek makes a bike you can buy today that has electric assist, and it looks fairly normal.

I just bought one of their Allant models for commuting, and I’ve been pretty happy with it. It’s fun to ride, and has a nice retro-nerdy-functional vibe going on. I put a Brooks saddle on it to top it off.

For all of you who don't know, electric bicycles have been around a long time. There are several people near me who own them. One is a 3 wheeler(or trike)and the other is a two wheel machine. They don't go far and they cost a lot. I believe Walmart sells at least one electric powered bicycle.

Which begs the question: Why are they acting as if this is a new concept?(Rhetorical question, I know the answer).

I would never ride that to work — because I don’t want to get SHOT by Holder’s “people” while passing through Chester.
