The X-Treme Scooters Electric Bicycle Scooter Moped is the ultimate alternative for commuters that need a quick way to travel but do not want the expense of operating a vehicle or motorcycle. Equipped with four 12-AMP batteries and a brushless rear 550 watt hub motor, the Electric Bicycle Scooter Moped can travel for up to 25 miles per charge and goes 20 miles an hour, making it great for gas-free commuting. Pedals come included but do not need to be installed, and because the Scooter Moped is classified as a power-assisted bicycle, you do not need a driver's license to ride the bike on the street. The electric bicycle does not have to be registered with the DMV, and if you follow the bicycle laws, you should be able to ride this bike any place bicycles are allowed to operate (Per Federal Electric Bicycle Law H.R. 727).

The Electric Bicycle Scooter Moped's large 500-watt brushless rear hub motor is installed in the center of the rear wheel and is powered by four large high-power batteries. The batteries will last for three years or more and can be re-charged more than 500 times. The electric bicycle will travel for 20 to 25 miles on a single charge and travels at up to 20 miles per hour. For additional convenience, the Scooter Moped is partially foldable for storage and transport and the front wheel can be removed.

The Electric Bicycle Scooter Moped is street ready with a solid, front and rear braking system, a Dual Sport headlight system, taillight, brake light, blinkers, and electric horn for maximum safety and visibility. The bike is also equipped with a speedometer and battery indicator. Front and rear shock absorbing as well as a spring-loaded seat make for a comfortable ride even on uneven surfaces, and the bike can be ridden by up to two people. Sixteen by 2.5 inch tires on durable aluminum wheels provide stability and traction for road riding. The bike motor starts a key and a variable speed control twist throttle. The bike is also equipped with a kickstand, tool kit, cargo rack, and multiple storage areas: a large area below the seat, a large trunk, and a small area near the key.

Equipped with four 12 volt, 20 AMP batteries with a life of three or more years, the Electric Bicycle Scooter Moped features a powerful battery set up. The bike runs for 20 to 25 miles per charge and can still be pedal operated when out of battery power. A Smart Charger is included with the bike.

I investigated electric bicycles for some time prior to I chosen that one. After some delivery delays, it arrived a couple days back. It's available in a huge container, which weighs in at 76K--167 pounds. Once within, it's bolted to some pretty filthy metal crate, so expect you'll get stinky and dirty! The front axle bolt is threaded through the crate, it requires some time to persistence to operate that out. The directions are near to useless, but it's pretty obvious where most of the stuff should really go. Just be individual! And don't be afraid of getting filthy.
I'm 5', about 110, and could battle it around, so I would believe most people shouldn't have a problem. I put it together, charged it up, switched it on. I forgot that electric bicycles don't create a starting sound, and I strike the throttle and just about freshly mowed down my living area table. So watch out for the quiet procedure! ) The horn on the other hand is fairly loud and severe--everyone's going to know you're coming. The lighting is fantastic, lights are large and vibrant, large braking system lights, great front and back turning signals. Its high beams as well.
I haven't had a chance to really test it on distances, I've been becoming accustomed to it-- does take away fairly quick, so practice someplace in which you won't encounter things--like NOT the living area! )
I will publish much more when I find out more. So far, 100Percent excellent, neighbors are jealous, company-workers want one.

I researched electrical bicycles for a while before I choosed that one. After a little delivery flight delays, it showed up a couple days ago. It's available in an enormous box, which weighs in at 76K--167 lbs. As soon as inside, it's bolted to a fairly dirty steel cage, so be prepared to get stinky and dirty! The front axle bolt is threaded through the cage, it requires some time and patience to work that out. The instructions are near to useless, but it's fairly apparent exactly where most of the stuff should really go. Just be patient! And don't hesitate of having dirty.
I'm 5', about a hundred and ten, and could wrestle it close to, and so i would believe many people shouldn't are having issues. I assemble it, billed it up, turned it on. I didn't remember that electrical bikes don't create a starting sound, and that i strike the accelerator and just about freshly mowed down my dining area table. So watch out for the peaceful procedure! ) The horn on the other hand is fairly noisy and severe--everyone's likely to know you're arriving. The lights are fantastic, lighting is large and vibrant, huge brake lights, great front and back switching signals. It's higher beams too.
I haven't had an opportunity to really test it on distances, I've been getting used to it-- takes off fairly fast, so practice somewhere where you won't encounter things--like NOT the dining area! )
I will publish more as I learn more. So far, 100% great, neighbours are jealous, company-workers want one.
Be aware: the speedometer show is in kms per hour. 32.2 KPHEquals20 MPH. So, if you're trying to comply with federal regualtions, that's exactly where it should be.
UPDATE: Fourteen days later on I'm nevertheless waiting around on my warranty replacement charger from XTreme Scooters. Used to do buy another Atworld wide web.monsterscooterparts.org. They've got low prices and great service. Their charger is much better and quieter too.
I've run the bicycle through pouring Houston rainfall and been good. I weigh close to 115 lbs and also the bicycle will get up to and including nice constant 42KMH which means just over 26 MPH. I will run it there for fifteen-seventeen kilometers. After it hits the yellow-colored bar, it drops down fairly quickly. I go ahead and take battery out of the bicycle and cost it this way, since I live in an upper level condominium which bicycle is way too heavy to trolley in the steps. Also, it's impossible this is 'foldable' or whatever it states on this website. It's heavy and bulky, you'd need a few individuals and a vehicle to get it close to.
Overall this is a great product, I'm having a ton of fun and still obtaining words of flattery and questions everywhere I go. I usually possess a large smile caught on my encounter when I'm using. )

The XB-502 replaced it's predecessor the XB-500 Electric Bike, only this
time they added a pedal system that classifies the XB-502 as an Electric
Bicycle, so the XB-502 Electric Bike can be ridden anywhere that a regular
bicycle can ride, legally, of course. The XB-502 is the best electric bike
within the smaller E-bike category. The XB-502 only weighs in at 176 lbs,
which is reasonably light compared to most other Electric Bikes in this
power/feature range.
