i watched a show on cable tv discovery chanel where they put one of these electric bikes up against a yzf 250 but even to watch it got a bit boring without the sound.glad to say the noiser bike came out on top.it maybe for some but without the noise its just not the same.even to watch the electric bike seemed a lot slower even though it wasnt that much slower.thanx gary

I have a team of techs in China working on the best type of pegs to put in the spokes- will send on the results after I tie up the market. More seriously, think how many batteries would fit in the wasp, two or three 'motors' like that three engined Maico and a rear tyre off a jumbo jet-wouldn't see us for dust!!
