"An extra pack for the Zero X - which uses a 2 kilowatt-hour pack - costs $3,000.


The Zero S will cost $9,950 "

I got $13k wrapped up in a bike and battery?

Someday it will be a viable option. Look at the Tesla electric sports car for an example. Not yet but it will be affordable in our future someday soon.
