interesting challenge to my concept of what an "e bike" is that there's no way of pedalling it. that's not as much of a show stopper as the >$1500 price, but kinda curious
Yeah, more of a scooter I'd think.
The jackrabbit is one device I just don't "get".
There are other foldable that are almost as small, but they are true ebikes with pedals and all. The Jackrabbit is just too compromised, in my opinion. If space is at an absolute premium, then consider a true scooter design or skateboard. If you lost power or they broke down, you could collapse them and carry them on your back. The Jackrabbit, not nearly as convenient if the battery dies.

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
