May I take this opportunity to highlight to our American friends that its not pronounced as Nay-Paul. No. Its pronounced as Nay-Paal.

Also it’s not pronounced to-may-toe. It’s pronounced to-ma-to.

The specifications and renders certainly look interesting, but there’s nothing on that site that indicates there is anything more than specs and renders.

With languages that are not written phonetically with wide regional variations in pronunciation (English), I think it makes sense to not care as long as you're understood. Might as well demand that Japan be pronounced Neep-on or Cuba Cooba and not Cyooba.

The title is a bit click-baity. It almost reads like it's the first electric bike, which it's not. Also interesting choice in name. Project Zero is pretty similar to the Zero bike. Zero bike has been around for quite awhile now. I am glad to see some competition in this space.

Let's call the whole thing off.

It's great. It seems like something that could make me buy one.

I felt that the site was a tease. The pictures way too close up, not showing you the whole thing, hidden in the dark. When I finally reached a picture of the device, I thought the very square 'battery' (?) looked chunky. "And now for something completely different" more pictures of the same (or very similar?) except with a tablet glued on. Marketing.
