BirdOne Scooter Pre-Sale

I’m curious what the go-to market strategy is here?

From the specs alone this design clearly advantageous for commercial use—at the expense of consumer features. No consumer needs a 30-mile range. Also most won’t want a fixed neck. It’s going to be a pain if you can’t fold it down when you get home or get on the train.

And then there’s the price $1,299 seems outrageously expensive when the better consumer options—from Segway and such are in the $500-to-$800 range. There are e-bikes cheaper and better suited for most consumers.

Even the high-end Van Moof e-bikes aren’t too much farther away in price.
