  Meanwhile, I'm holding out for the 100 mph model. But seriously, how do you know this one isn't high quality? And perhaps you can slow-charge it 95% of the time.

    In my experience companies that advertise their stuff at the edge of its capabilities aren't the ones that make long term reliable products. It's like with audio amplifiers, you can buy cheap amps that advertise insane power levels but at really weird conditions, or there is the quality stuff thats very conservatively rated in terms of its specs because they know their customers are buying it for other reasons, like quality or reputation, not just numbers in an advertisement. Ultimately I don't think charging bikes fast is an issue, the batteries are relatively small compared to cars so they already charge relatively faster, and if you really need quick swaps like in a race or something swapping out the battery pack is a far better approach. Ultimately I know nothing about this bike, I'm just poking at their advertising really.

  They specifically say it’s an LFP battery which I understand will be safer.
