RLE Bike and Elon have you covered.

You don't even have to ride the bike to the start.

Should we start a Paceline raffle; how long until the first lawsuit?

Rather silly notion. Not a particularly attractive bicycle.
I will continue to source my titanium bicycles elsewhere.

Apparently, Elon likes flames.
It is a pretty stealthy e-bike. Got to give them that.

After a good taco Tuesday I can do what this bike does with my hidden flame thrower.

What's up with the seatpost....looks like it is held to the frame with zip-ties??

my guess about the seatpost is that is so they can remove it to insert batteries in the top tube. If they say where the batteries are, I missed it.

I also missed the zip tie. Would really like to know what's going on there

HAHA doesn't look like safety was a big concern.

Don't think I'd want to jump that poor thing.

Size and voltage of that motor makes the 250W claim pretty dubious, but who knows.
