2nd: It's and impressive bike, custom frame, custom high torque motor, hydraulic disk brakes, motorcycle tires, a transmission instead of a derailleur, and other amenities.
3rd: the AH of the pack is 18AH and that's conservative. It lasted all day at the track with one charge. About 4 dozen people rode it all afternoon.
Lastly: It's probably got $5K worth of parts and $1K of labor into it, so $10K is steep, but so is paying for a Lamborghini.
I spent roughly $2k on my bike and it's got (technically speaking) 72v 20ah... (ok Top Speed is only 35mph instead of 50... But normal mode is 20mph (Limited)).
I have Front and Rear Directionals, Front and Rear lights, Brake light, 12v Cigarette lighter, regular brakes, no gears, heavy as crapola, cruise control, reverse (totally useless btw), regenerative braking, radio, subwoofer & 300w amp. (radio/sub/amp combo not installed - currently waiting for diamond plate aluminum battery box...)
I'm not saying it's a bad bike it anything, just $10k is out of most people's range, because they're not using there's for racing...
