I have a Mini 40 Mile Busettii bike and it runs 50-55 miles on one battery charge. I also tried my friends Vortex Mountain bike by Busettii. It ROCKS ! Can get up to 32 mph top speed, and on one charge that bike set the new record of 86 miles. Hope it becomes a big hit. In California many people like Busettii because they cost around $1700 but can go 50--86 miles on one charge depending on model. Maria in Cali

The crew crashes and he must continue peddling forever.

[upcycle]

@TUBEORATER nah.. he cud just stop peddling and coast, as friction on the wheels and from air resistance continue to slow him down. Then he can find something soft to brush into or just gently lay it down when he is down to about 1 or 2 miles per hour., in this case probably plenty slopes with leafy bushes to brush into.

anybody want to debate the advantage of streamlining,the same body [ A Varna design]with Sam Whittinghton ? went 82 mph at Battle mountain,Nevada.So can you imagine a purpose built motorcycle,with full body,doors.Done right,streamlining can double the mileage and or range of electric's.They banned streamlining in racing,because they were going too fast and the technology in brakes,handling were not to be.

"World record bicycle sprinting speeds currently around 90 miles per hour."

in 2006 maybe but in 2008:

The world speed record for human-powered vehicles was set by Sam Whittingham on a fully faired recumbent bicycle on September 18, 2008 with a speed of 132.5 km/h (82.33 mph)

@ DupczacyBawol

In my dictionary a bicycle

is

"vehicle with 2 wheels, one in front of the other pedalled by rider"
