Lectric XP LITE

If you've been on YouTube in the last couple of days, possibly you've seen a review of the subject bike. This is a folding, 48v, 500w 20 mph bike that weighs about 45 pounds and is selling for $799. It seems like it would adapt to commuter and light trail use well. As happens frequently when I see a new model, I reach for the CC and must have it. Then I realize that I ride very little terrain that it's designed for and already have a similar "more MTB-style" bike. Still, it looks excellent for the price.

Already posted in the Folding Electric Bike thread two days ago.
Price is great, but it's a single speed; probably not ideal for even light trail use with elevation change, flat, hardpack trail along a river maybe.
I'd imagine it is ideal for those who are just getting their first ebike and returning to cycling and don't want to mess with gears.

Nice little bike, I could see a lot of uses for it. Looks like they are out 4 weeks.

My son just purchased the "regular" version, so it'll be interesting to see how it does over a period of time. He's very impressed so far (as is my other son with a Rad).

I'm torn between getting the XP Lite, Origami Bull (totally ACOUSTIC! ), and a completely different ride altogether,...another electric commuter scooter - the Niu KQi3 Max. Ugh,...
