This works great in Maine from December to mid-March, especially with the fuel efficient tire tread and sleak basket design to help you fly over the frost heaves with less wind drag.

So what kind of an incline can you climb with one of these?

They're toothless by design; its to keep the bugs out of their teeth when riding these.

Be warned that a motorized two-wheeled conveyance that travels faster than 25mph is a motorcycle, and as such will require a motorcycle license and a helmet.

80cc I think is too large for a typical bicycle frame, you'll go faster than is at all safe.
And the one in he video on that site was LOUD. Too loud.
I like the idea though.

Looks like one more nuisance for drivers to contend with.

Agreed with #11. You probably don't want bicycles going 40 mph, or maybe even 25. But I have seen some motorized bicycles around my town and envied them a bit.

All the benefits of a cheap moped and none of the benefits of a bicycle.

Why not pedal and get a work-out?
Much "cooler" than a mo-ped

Any decent mountain bike can go 30 MPH without structural issues, or braking with disc brakes, easily. Beyond that, the issue is rider response to bad road conditions.
