These are solid for what they are, but they compare most to escooters in the 500$ and under range and that hurts it ALOT. If it went 20mph for 20 miles it would be significantly more competitive. As it is, it's a novelty, not really something useful.

Had mine for a few months and have used it for zipping around car shows, short trips as well as a 20+ mile day trip. The lack of suspension is definitely my main complaint especially with how rough the roads, paths, and sidewalks are here in Hawaii. Recently picked up an aftermarket seat post and it really makes a difference being able to mount a large spring seat to help soften the ride.

I feel like this has more of a cool and novelty factor. With the specs it has only having a 12mile range and can only get to a top speed of 10 miles an hour it’s definitely not worth a grand. This seems like it should coast in the range of 3 to 500 dollars tops for the specs it does have. If it had like a range of 20 miles and a top speed of like 22 miles an hour I could see it being close being in that 1000 dollar price range!

Yeah, I only just today heard about these. I *have* to drive to work, I live in a town of about 35,000, the parking lot is no issue, and I really can't see myself needing one. I can see definite benefits if you had to park way across campus, or if you got dropped off from your bus or train ride way far away from your destination. I also live in the mountains, and I don't know how practical one of these would be for, say, going to the grocery store, riding up and down the mountainside, even if it *is* only half a mile away.

Lectric sells a Folding e-bike that is the same size, same weight and has a 45 mile range at 20 mph for 799. This is junk with a Honda label on it. Its a cool novelty, but if you are looking for a solution with a similar form factor that will do a similar job for a decent price, most jackknife style electric scooters or budget folding e bikes will do the same thing for less with an all metal frame and far more comfortably. Honestly with the size and industry standards for manufacturing I am shocked Honda has the nuts to ask a grand for something it's competitors are requesting 3-5 hundred for.

My only questions are: 1. Does it fit underneath the back cargo floor of a 3rd gen (2010) prius? 2. is the handlebar stem on this more expandable? it DOES look uncomfortable to ride while sitting, but I wonder if a standing position wouldn't feel more natural? if anybody could possibly answer these I'd be super grateful 🙏

When you think about it theres an imbalance of price, battery range, weight, and practicality. If it were half the price and weight, it would make sense with the range.

Electric Scooters and bikes come down to mph. I would not listen to people who owned both for years and brought the entry level long range models that had speed limited by law of 20 mph. At first it was nice until you ride it in traffic and up hills. The speed limit governs how much acceleration you will get and also how much torque it has. I upgraded to a 80 mph electric scooter and could not be happier! Got rid of my Segway limited 20 mph scooter.😊
