18.000 $ is enough to buy KTM EXC-F 350 for 10.000 $ and spend remaining 8.000 $ on gasoline for 25 years (twenty five) of riding, considering 4000 miles a year, which is a lot for off-roading.

Hmmm... Debatable maths aside, an interesting point?

Definitely not cost-effective, but an interesting machine. Would be useful to have one stuck on the back of your expedition caravan.

The comparison to the EXC F is valid, but perhaps for different users - even at best, that's 60% heavier than the electric bike with fuel.

I suppose that I'm wrong and it's not that interesting a point really... New technology is always more expensive, and this particular piece of kit is clearly not directly comparable.

I do like where this is headed though I have to say.

A few more years development and they'll make an interesting alternative.

I've just re-read my earlier post and realised I was using the word "interesting" enough times to make me sound a right knob.

Im just glad that none of us actually had to say it
