As a cyclist, I just find this creepy.

I like technology but my bike has nothing on that I can't understand at a glance. Keeping it that way is good.

So if a part on your bike breaks then you're gonna cast a new one out of raw metal? Machine it yourself? How is this different than any other part you have to replace?

It's an electric motor, a battery and a cellphone in a red plastic shell. Nothing to get religious about.

If an analogy helps, think of a traditional hard-disk in your workout mp3 player.
