Faraday Porteur on Kickstarter

Kickstarter is a great low risk way to launch a new product and the guys over at Faraday Bikes are trying to get in on the action. They just kicked off a Kickstarter campaign trying to raise the small sum of $100K to help them release their Faraday Porteur electric bike. Sounds like a lot of money but when the bikes themselves are selling for $3500 they only have to sell about 30 of them hit their goal. A bit of info about their Kickstarter campaign is below. Good luck!
