Nice bike, but a waste of money, this is a toy only. why you need 3 wheels for an electric push bike? I just don't see it.

It is only matter of time before Piaggio's lawyers sue this little startup.

The sharks are circling.

Yamaha also have their Niken 3 wheeled motorbike, Piaggio don't own the right to make a 3 wheeler just presumably the patent for a particular mechanisim to do this.

Ask Yamaha or Peugeot what they think of Piaggio's legal department, as both have experience being hit with lawsuits from Piaggio.

Piaggio's lawyers start filing lawsuits in the same way Apple's legal department operates.

I doubt the particular mechanism is unique
The use of the particular mechanism on a scooter with a leading link is probably the unique part
Notice no news of Yamaha settling with with Piaggio
