Eva Hakansson and Bill Dube' design, build, and race world record holding electric motorcycles. They do it to demonstrate that EVs do not have to be embarrassing, slow, "nerd-mobiles", but can be fast, powerful, and sexy. They also have managed to advance the state of EV technology significantly along the way.
