    He’s other video about how it broke down is a great advertisement for why not to get one. https://youtu.be/l2pyMfrosa0?feature=shared

    He got stranded in New York City, several different parts broke in the same event, overnight shipping failed, he needed to stay in an RV Park… so many reasons why traditional bike touring or even e-bike touring would be cheaper, mechanically simpler and more flexible when it comes to where you can stay.

      When I wan’t to go home after a bike tour, I can take a train. Because I sleep in a tent.

      Image what kind of high quality ultra light expedition tent you could buy for 7000 bucks.

        Or how many nights you could splurge on a hotel and still spend less than $7,000.

        You could probably get that tent and all other equipment you need for touring, including the e-bike, and still have enough money leftover to throw a huge celebration party with all your friends for your smart financial decisions.
