    Sir,
    I have been using my self made ecycle for last 4 months, i have to ride 56 km to go and come back from my school, i'm a primary school teacher, i have converted my student life cycle into this. I's running almost 65 km per charge, with a top speed of 30 km. I'm just loving it. The li-ion battary pack is doing great. Hope to inspire more people into the next gen of easy transportation. I have been saving around 2500 per month jus by using it. Which will certainly accumulate a sum of 25 lack plus within next 28 years, which will enable me to give my kid a better education. It's a game changer in my life. I would love to set up a facility to make more like this. If you can, plz help me in getting throw the' red tape' quickly, so that i can concentrate more on r&d for evehicles.
    Thank you sir.

    I am a Delhi Citizen and I sold my Car two years back just because I found it not worthy keeping as I am a Freelancer Musician and I dint find it useful. So I brought a Honda Scooty instead for long rides in Delhi only as my work is only in Delhi/NCR. For small rides I brought a MTB Bicycle and use it. It's true In our country especially in Delhi people treat a Bicycle riders nothing and even make joke of us most of the time also the pollution level is so high to ride bicycle and breathing such air is like killing ourselves. But I must say after the COVID-19 pandemic the air is clear and people are taking their cycles with pride and I hope this mentality stay for rest of upcoming generations too........

    I read almost half of the comments below, it is impressive to know that there are few people who are already contributing towards environment by using an eco-friendly transport system i.e bicycle.
    But it equally disappointed to know that few of the comments are just criticizing the Indian government and easily saying that it is just impossible in India .
    Why? Why is it impossible ... it is just because of our mentality... we feel ashame of using bicycle , instead of blaming others that people will laugh at us when we will use bicycles over car/motorcycle ... we have to change our mentality to feel ashame of anyones reaction. It is only then when we can change it from impossible to possible.
    And few comments here are saying that this cycle is not affordable its very costly ... but why we need to buy electric cycle only ... a non electric cycle is very affordable ... around 3-4k and any normal person can easlily ride it for 5-6 km or more in one go.

    • @isthisprice

      You're right. People in India blame the government for everything, whereas they should look at themselves first. Wherever I go, I either take the auto, the bus, just walk or I ride my mtb! That's the best thing! And, slowly people are understanding the value of bicycles in our country too. In Kolkata, I have seen, you can just take a bicycle for rent by scanning the qr code, and that's it! But, we are the people who have to bring the change, how much can the government even do, if people don't have such ideas of making their country free of pollution?

      Cars are used in India as they provide more comfort.
      Eg.
      In afternoon, climate is too warm
      And it is not suitable for a person to stay in such a warm climate for a ling time,
      Cars provide AC for this.

      Temperature of nagpur achieves 40 degrees in June Summer.
      ( I think, 40 degrees is uncomfortable for most indians who are using car from a long time. )
      This temperature can be reduced by reducing the use of polluting vehicles (such as car),
      So, we must have to use bicycles on Indian roads,
