=Basics=
*For an alternative transport method to be worth it (over a bicycle or car etc) it needs to both:
**Provide more functionality than a bicycle or similar vehicle
**Be cheaper than something like a used car

*Thus designs have a maximum price of around $5,000 or so

=[[User:Eric]]'s Bit=
*In my search for a [[Two Wheeled Velomobile]] for University use, as I don't yet have a car, and parking is hard to find+ gas is pricey, yet it rains too much in florida for biking to be considered reasonable in my opinion, I have found most designs I find to be either too incomplete, not durable enough, or beyond the price of a used car, such as a Honda Accord, plus lots of gas money (~$2,000-5,000 + Gas Money). Some designss arem so expensive, a new car would even be cheaper.

==Designs I Considered Semi-Adequiat==
===[[Organic Transit]]'s ELF 2fr===
Pros:
*Two Seats
*Cargo Trunk
*Enclosed
*Pedal AND electric
*Bicycle style wheels

Cons:
*No Doors
*Flismy Construction
*Cost ($8,895.00 – $9,794.95)

===Zbee===
Pros:
*3 Seats
*Durable Construction
*Hot Swappable batteries

Cons:
*Shipping
*Cost (~$4,254.75)
*No Doors

===Lit Motors===
Pros:
*2 Seats
*2 Wheels
*Fully Enclosed with Solid Doors
*Steering Wheel
*Gryoscopically Stabalized

Cons:
*Cost ($24,000 (Could be A new car and $4,000 gas + matinence)
*Motorcycle Style Wheels
*ONLY electric (ie no pedal power)
*Probably not Sidewalk Legal

===Monoracer===
Pros:
*2 Seats + Carggo Trunk
*2 Wheels + Low Speed "Training Wheels" for stability
*Fully Enclosed with Solid Doors
*Steering Wheel
*Gas and Electric Models
*Insane Acceleration + Speed

Cons:
*Supercar Like Price (~$100,000
*Not Sidewalk Legal (Obiously)

=In Conclusion=
*Anything close to what is considered desirable is either incomplete or too expensive. Thus this leaves a place in the market for inexpensive, quality, open source, personal transport vehicles
