Fuel-Cell Bike Maker Hopes for Production Next Year
Intelligent Energy is looking for a partner to make its ENV hydrogen fuel-cell bike, which has a top speed of about 60 mph and will probably cell for $7000 or so.

The fuel cell will get you about 100 miles, and the company, which plans to relocate in Southern California, offers a home recharging system.
