Some nice designs.
136 range is attractive.
But a 60 mph "sport bike"? Hmm...

Guess this sums up their approach:

"‘Most interest we have had so far is from the urban rider who wants a low running cost solution for their commute. When you consider that the average commute is around 20 kilometres a day and that an electric alternative that will cost less than €200 to run a year, it makes great financial sense."

Looks like they import Chinese bikes and sell them under their own brand.
All models have the motor in the rear wheel hub.
Once you go EV, gas is history!
