When an electric bike becomes "budget" is when you ride it. I have had my 2017 DSR for about 5,000 miles now. The cost to operate according to the app is just under 1 penny a mile. What can you ride 100 miles for $1? No oil changes, no spark plugs, no fluids. Love my bike. Been riding since 1976 - Hondas, Kaws, and BMWs. My Zero is the best yet. Smooth as silk.

@@squirrelnutboy I design EV batteries for my job. That's really not how it works. Firstly, most EV's will "pad" the available range. Meaning the fuel gauge will only show the range within the 20% - 80% charge capacity of the pack. Over time as it degrades, it expands that range to, lets say, 10% - 90%. This effectively eliminates the degradation that you see as a user. Anyways, lithium ion cells are only getting better. You can already easily get thousands of cycles with minimal degradation on an EV because they don't stress the cells very much compared to devices like cell phones and vapes.

The zero has been great, no maintenance, fun wheelies, instant power delivery to blast in front of traffic after every stop in the city. I'd say the only negative is nearly every time I park, I have to take time to explain what it is because people always stop to ask "is that electric?" Did I mention fun wheelies?

If you need to get someone's attention, use the horn. Quiet is nice. You do not bother the neighbors and you can sense your environment more. Noise causes fatigue and pisses off people. The Zero is fantastic.

What jacket are you wearing? I like it!
