Well, I see that it has hyperbolic lights.
Definition,

An example of something that would be described as hyperbolic is a reaction by a person that is completely out-of-proportion to the events occurring.

Hyperbolic is also a mathematical term; either the light spread or the mirror is very likely hyperbolic. Not that special, it's a pretty common pattern for a bike light.

charges in 2 hours but can do 43 miles on one charge

but no mention of AH or Wh of the battery - in my experience batteries take longer than that to charge

maybe they use better charging tech - or the mileage estimate is more 'optimistic' than most

still - look cool!!

I'll grant them a 4A charger, so two hours could refill a 8AH battery. Maybe a 3P pack, I could probably squeeze out 43 miles on 8AH, pedaling a single gear at 12 mph.

I admit I know little about metal forming, Seems like who ever has to weld the front and back of that frame better be well paid to do a good job, or maybe it's a robot,

Looks nice.

Value for money?

My Specialized weighs about the same, has 9 gears, a 36v 10ah battery that does 40+ miles on a full charge at 15 mph and cost £550 all in. And I can remove the motor if I want to sell the bike. And I can re-install the motor on a new bike.

Looks nice though.
