OK, so an E-bike just needs a digital speedo and trip, so the big box is is overkill.
There may be another reason for Can-Am to announce now: Get a jump on the competition?
I live 5 miles from these guys:
https://damon.com/, a new start-up.
But why would a new company simply copy every other sportbike on the road?
At least Can-Am can design for all of the 'non-racers' buying bikes! I still love it!
A big caveat though is price. 'Zero' bikes are priced sky high. Can-Am will probably follow.
Cheers!
