I think this vid is a good indication: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWyv-3IBfuY

To newcomers the sound at top speed is definitely very obvious - friends and family have remarked on it being somewhat noisy at first.

In a quiet area it can sound whiny when pushed. Roadside it tends to just blend in with the rest of the noise. At low-mid throttle (5-15 mph) it's a low growl which does not attract much attention.

Unfortunately, the youtube linked to no longer permits viewing/listening.

Guess it might have something to do with the Indiegogo launch. Due to expire in about 17 days

I'm almost about to bite the bullet and get this to use with my scooter AND bikes. Since it's easily removed all I need are mounts for each bike I'd use it on. Regardless of the noise, it's definitely a nice portable option for the people who own multiple rides.

Would you mind updating your experience with your share roller? How is it holding up, holding the charge, and how much wheel wear have you noticed? I'm thinking about it for next go-round...whenever that is.
