Looking at the spec sheet, 18,500 rpm isn't just a step up from the last model, it rewrites the whole notion of what a production engine even is. Shrinking the motor directly attacks curb weight, and that's the part that gets me. I can't wait for news of an actual production version.

Does rpm even matter on an electric motor?

It's just a patent, actual bike is still way off

18,500 rpm feels aggressive, durability tho?
