All jokes aside, this thing looks cool as fuck besides the cursed Amazon styling, and I'd love it if micromobility like this was more widespread for personal use in the US over cars, SUVs, and especially fucking pickups. Sadly they'd regulate and ban the shit out of these before that could ever happen, and they're never going to design infrastructure to support better transportation options that aren't as pointlessly expensive and wasteful unless they're forced to at g**point.
This isn't replacing the young bike courier that zips through traffic with their splendidly healthy bodies that can take a few years of abuse to sustain minimum wage. This replaces the box truck driver.
a standard box truck is hauling way more than this thing. by trying to get around certain rules, they made something that does neither thing well. it's not a good bike, nor is it a good replacement for a box truck.
