Thanks, Cal.  That is a beautiful red Pebl.  My wife has a green Pebl, the Eco model.  The link to the video below shows her exact machine, as it was at the factory before it was shipped to us.  The company promotes this particular one as having a "100 mile battery", but that would be for someone weighing 155 pounds or less and on a straight and level road.  This one comes with "Cruise Control", a 600 watt electric heater, turn signals, headlights, side lights, a windshield wiper and a very shaky flooring made to just keep dust and debris out during travel ( you can't put any weight on the floring).  It has a couple of USB ports to charge phones with and it has solar panels that in bright sunlight, like we have here in Northern Nevada on most days, is supposed to charge the batteries in about 6 hours.  Her model comes with 8 forward gears and 1 for reverse, side mirrors and 2 power selections:  On Rode ( 750 Watts ) and Off Road ( 1500 Watts ).  The side windows are clear plastic and have zippers so that you can easily go from full enclosure to riding down the road with the windows down.  The vehicle comes with a Voltmeter that allows you to judge, somewhat, the limits of how far to discharge the battery on the one hand and how close to maximum full recharge you want to be on the other hand.  This feature gives you at least some ability to maximize the battery life by not running it down to full discharge and by not charging it all the way up to 100% full charge.

Obviously, these are niche EVs and not something that will be seen in every town and city in the US anytime soon.  They are ideal for certain retirement communities that have wide bicycle pathways and for people who do the vast bulk of traveling on residential streets that can accommodate bicycles in a sizeable bike lane.  They are not meant for rough riding over the hills or praries in routine off road style riding.  They aren't meant for riding on busy public roads and certainly not for highway traffic, but if you are just tooking around the neighborhood and have wide streets and/or bike lanes then they can be a perfect fit for members of the public.  The "Bicycle DUI Club" would probably not find these EVs a practical alternative, too expensive and not adaptable to unlimited travel in a metropolitan community.

On the other hand, EV bicycles have long been a going Jessie in the various Asian countries.  The U.S. is way behind regarding EV bicycles, but we are making progress, more so in some cities that are more amenable to this alternative form of travel.  EV motorcycles are still in the nascient stages here in the U.S., but we are gaining ground as witnessed by the advent of Electric Harley's.  

When my wife and I bought our 2 electric bicycles many years ago they were almost unknown here in the Reno area, but now they are becoming more common place and we have a wide variety of different brands from which to choose... same thing that is happening elsewhere in the U.S.

Electric cars, electric scooters, electric bicycles, electric boats, electric planes, electric fork lift trucks, electric passenger trucks, electric commercial trucks, electric buses, electric trains... and the beat goes on.  More and more EVs of all kinds and, therefore, more and more need for minerals used in making the batteries for these EVs.  We are not at the end of the ICE age, not in the least.  More correctly, we are at the dawn of the age of electric vehicles.  JMO   Okiedo  

PS, we had high winds here yesterday when we had the Pebl delivered at a nearby park and the Pebl navigated through 30 to 40 mph winds back to our house without any problems according to my son, the driver.
