the Yike Bike

interesting new 2-wheeled motorized urban personal transport
it folds up tiny and goes 25km/hour
looks like it rides as instinctively as a bike--after a while

my concern is the sort of posture that it traps you in, upright but slumped
like we need any more reasons to slouch and be sedentary
