High praise from a higher power, I am glad that you see it for what it is Sister Annie and I thank you. I actually have dubbed that bike the Bicycle Utility Motorassist Vehicle or Bumvee for short.
However the next versions will be more refined and to all those that think that ICE's are the devil be comforted by the fact that they will be able to mount an electric motor in its place. We are using gas currently because it is way cheaper to build our prototypes that way to refine the drivetrain.

Our short range goal is to distill alcohol under BATF permits and raise the compression ratio as high as we can get it to take advantage of some homegrown fuel. After we refine how we are going to generate power enough to keep a battery charged/run lighting the first thing I am going to do is mount a front hub motor on mine and have a two wheel drive hybrid and that is a moment worth waiting for I think.
