Don't have one but have ridden them a few times in the city. They are a lot of fun and time saving for getting around.I just ordered a new Ariel Rider Kepler bicycle, 1000 watt motor, 20Amp hr battery. Seemed like a good deal to me. I’m going to use it to go fishing mostly. Anyone else have an E bike?
Very popular for tourists in big cities. Working in DC, i see them all the time and they are very efficient. A few weeks ago, I had to go do something for work and was going to take an uber. Uber would have been 20 minutes/$15 for the ride during rush hour.I can see the sense of them for non-fitness principles as an alternate form of transportation to travel a short distance.
When I had my Ram in for service a while ago, they were selling ebikes in the showroom, I can't remember the manufacturer but man they were heavy, I sure wouldn't want to have to pedal them anywhere....Since my accident walking long distances and climbing river banks hurt my foot and leg. On top of that I ride my mountain bike 6 to 12 miles per trip. By the time I get home I’m whipped, hope the E bike cuts down on some of the fatigue and pain. Being old doesn’t help either.
The thing ships as a class 2 , 20 mph, but as a class 3 the company claims 32 mph. That just takes 5 or 6 button push’s on the controller. All the videos I’ve watched shows 34 to 38 mph.How fast is it?
The neighbor down the street says these Teslica bikes will go around 35mph on a good day with all the right conditionsThe thing ships as a class 2 , 20 mph, but as a class 3 the company claims 32 mph.
