It's not for me, but I can see this becoming popular.

Snow bikes have been around for several years. This is from 7 years ago. But it does look like Moonbike is the first electric one.

Very little snow in our area, we picked a good year to get out of the sport.

I wonder how comfortable they are. I've seen the snow bikes before.

At the 5:12 mark the dad is found lying in the snow after somehow wiping out.
These things might be fun, but I don't see them being a lot of fun on un-groomed trails. Something about that single ski makes me wonder how well it handles uneven/rough areas.

Comfortable? Comfort is a concept foreign to the idea of mountain machines of any sort, isn't it? :gaah:
