Last year we reviewed the Damon Hyperfighter and the review was very popular. A lot of folks rightfully suggested perhaps the Damon will never come to market. We are thrilled to have spent some time this year with the TS Pro because it is, indeed, in production and being delivered. Damon from last year: ua-cam.com/video/BVe_eF6qORA/v-deo.html
The design and cooling for that motor seems incredible. I haven't seen anything like it before. I hope this inspires other companies as well. Nice video!
That electric motor in the rear wheel is mind-blowing. I can't help but wonder what rain, snow, mud would do to it. I want to see you take one of these for a test drive!
Thank you for your kind words. We post a wide variety of content which is thematically related but actually has different audiences. Our subscriber count would be much higher if we had for separate channels housing EV reviews, eMobility reviews, factory tours/education, and industry/biz leader coverage. We also do a poor job of spacing out the release of our content, smothering new clips with more new clips. Our thumbnails and intro segments lack simple hooks and tease tactics. Those are some of our actions which limit our viewership.
@@MissGoElectric Well, I like your varied content, and appreciate the lack of hooks and tease tactics- such click bait, unfortunately, is a large part of sifting through UA-cam (and other platform) content- but then, I am getting old and curmudgeonly... :-0
Buen video, muy informativo. Genial moto pero al video hubiera estado bien una toma con el CEO sentado y otra contigo para tener referencia del tamaño, si es que dejaban sentarse. Es una Muscle Bike genial tipo Ducati Diavel, Triumph Rocket o Yamaha V-Max.
Thank you for watching and the kind words. The venue and event did not allow for sitting but hopefully we will have a chance to ride and review one once they come to the US market. For reference, I am 5'11. Here is a link to their FAQ page which has the dimensions of the bike listed under the first question: www.vergemotorcycles.com/faq-us/
The rear wheel power train is wicked cool, but I do not see this catching fire in sales in US. More of a one-off toy than anything. HD couldn’t sell the Livewire at $30k. This will be a non-starter. Also not believing 233 mile range. No way, no how.
I dont' think these will ever be delivered. They've been saying "production is just starting" "soon we'll start shipping these to customers" Well they've been saying that for over a year now.
The Verge bikes look great!
Super cool!!!
Cool machine!

We are happy you like this. It impressed us, too.

This thing is wild to behold in person. The videos on their web site are incredible.
Nice interview. How do you not have 10x the number of subscribers yet :-0 Your reviews and interviews are both precise and engaging.
Thank you for your kind words.

If this was an American startup it will have a 6 billion dollars market cap. Brilliant and innovative thinking.
Good point

We think they find an audience. This is a high end, low volume product. A future in which these are on American streets is an exciting future, indeed.
That distance was for city driving- very doable- their highway range, as he quoted, would be half that, which tracks true.

The CEO stated clearly in this video that deliveries have already taken place in Europe.
