I wonder if we get skates along with the exoskeliton, if we can travel "biking distances." Or if we put a cover on our regular bikes, and bodify the gear ratios, if using the exoskeleton could get nomal bikes to motorcycle speeds.

Would you spend $30K ($20K for exoskeleton + $10K bicycle upgrades) for a veheicle requiring no fuel (but would have to plug in)? (You can get an eltric motorcycle for under $10K so probably not)

But, more on the theme of exoskeletons:
