I actually bought an e-go a couple of weeks ago (had a boosted preorder but couldn't wait) to address some of the comments on this page: - flex: the orange things on the side of the battery are rubber, conceiling gaps in the plastic. This allows the entire battery enclosure to flex. - range: I was sceptical about the 30km claim, but so far I've only been able to run the charge down to 50%. I opened up the battery enclosure, and they're using 28x samsung ICR18650-26F cells, so it does seem there's quite a bit of juice. - planes: note that the battery is above 100Wh (more than 200?) and can't be brought on a plane. I did not know this and took it in my luggage.. - downhill: I noticed that the braking has a maximum force, so on very steep hills (20% ?) it would be braking at its max but you'd still be accelerating. Probably not a big issue for experienced boarders, but scary for a beginner like me.
