This situation has been reminding to me 2008 and the Viper. Chrysler went bankrupt one more time, and Viper was for sale. Nobody bought it. The owners were all worried, and some dedicated and wealthy ones were going to buy production tools, but they never did. Eventually, the whole company was...

Could you please post a side view?

If the batteries were hot swappable, for my amateur motocross racing I would be okay with reducing the battery weight and range by 25-30%, if I could still have the same power. But I am afraid that the power will go down and the overheating will increase. Still, hot swappable and stackable...

Make the frame from carbon fiber and outsource the manufacturing to Africa!

$5M / 100 employees = $50K annual salary per employee. They definitely need to get out of Cali, increase their sales and margins. All the expensive and time consuming R&D and brand building has already been done. They either need to be bought out (for cheap) or go expand their production and...

Then make the frame 130 lbs. ;)

Archived for posterity: Media Review - Alta Motors Makes First Redshift Customer Delivery

I already have one MXR. Now looking to buy a second. $8,000 or less I will be between the Midwest and Southwest this winter, so MI, AZ, CA and nearby states are all within my driving distance. Please PM me the details: Price Location VIN Condition Mods/extras/issues Thank you.

It certainly looks like the potential buyers back out because they think they can make a similar bike themselves. The battery tech is similar to Tesla's. I googled for Faster Faster patents and found just one for a heat shield to prevent the thermal runaway. I wonder which shield that would be...
