What do you think about bikes like this and E-Bikes in general?

To be honest in this corner of the world the main population in bikes is people with humble beginnings, and while some make it big and would be interested in a /tech/ bike it would have to be advertised thoroughly for it to make noise, on top of offering isolated components (like electronic brakes) because no one is gonna drop modularity after falling in love with the road. But it's very much a first world city bike, they know they would be chewed up and spat out in racing or mountain areas.

>What do you think about E-Bikes in general?
The smartphones of biking, integrated and non-modular. The built in GPS into the thing might come in handy, but given that they are hidden out of your agency it reeks of 'Internet of Things' already.
