Pretty cool concept. I'm just unsure which market they're after. You won't find a lot of dirtbikers happy with 9hp. And how many mountain bikers want a 125lb bike?

In a strictly exploring sense, it's a great idea.

I'd say $2500 neat. Right between a pretty high end MTB and a low end MX bike...

For that kind of money, you could get a 150lb. GasGas, with double the HP.

I'll pass.

Double? I'm going to go way out on a limb here and say my 150lbs GasGas 280 had a touch more than 18 hp.

Sorry.

Should have said, "at least double".

What's your 280 have, around 40?
