“In simple terms, Urtopia has integrated ChatGPT into its e-bike to provide voice interaction with the rider. For example, a rider can ask the e-bike how to change a flat tire, or for directions to a local bike shop that could do it for them. “

    Me neither, but it goes 40km/h and it only weighs 15kg. I go up and down stairs, so the weight's important to me. I haven't found anything else that's comparable that's also belt driven. Every e-bike seems like a compromise. I'm hoping soon there will be more standardization regarding features in the industry, so I could just put my own ebike together.

      Yeah the range of ebikes out there is fucking wack. I have no idea who they're being marketed to exactly because you'd think there'd be like 5-6 obvious use-cases for ebikes and outside maybe urban delivery cargo bikes, makers don't seem to cater to any of them very well.

      There's like 18 different, 1-2mm spaced standards for seatposts for some reason, the bike industry is absolutely fucking garbage at standardization
