    I’m not sure why the form factor really matters, feels more like bike lanes should be for small personal vehicles under a certain speed.

      Top speed in the lanes is a governed 20 mph, but via its two-kilowatt rear hub motor the Olto can be liberated to do 33 mph off road.

      Pretty sure those who buy it won’t be self limiting themselves to 20mph, which is already a lot for most casual commuters.
