Not surprised. They always seemed really expensive. Like, I know they're gonna be nicer than a cheap Rad Power, but they're also more than the e-bikes offered by traditional bike companies. Especially important when a lot of local bike shops won't repair electronic things on brands they don't sell.
Also, lol, their website still just had rendered images of the bikes. Having seen them in person, yes, they look nice. A lot nicer than a lot of other e-bikes, but like, there's nothing that feels more like just backing something on kickstarter than a lack of actual photos of your bikes.
