A bike for Seattle hipsters (it appears you need to have red hair, a beard and black specs to talk about it, although you don't need to roll up your trouser leg, they say). It's got a Bluetooth lock, and onboard Arduino, electric assist, Gates belt drive, turn indicators, brake lights and lots of other cool stuff. It only seems to have two gears. It's designed for rainy Seattle they say, so there's one obvious thing missing from it from my perspective... </p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2upOx4Tv5Jc" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2upOx4Tv5Jc</a></p> <p>So it's very cool. I'm not actually convinced it's any <strong>good</strong>, though. </p>
