I love these! But I sure hear a lot of naysaying about them, esp. versus the oh-so-stylish mopeds many are driving now.

Pretty cool!

They seem reasonably priced, especially the higher-end models. *I really like that e-trike the best...seems to me that one would be the most useful.

I've found others since I started this.. some are very very cool. cost a bit, but if your a bike fan, big cost can be normal. I saw a 2 seater electric car yesterday, like the trike, with a cab, and just 2 seats with a rummble seat in back.

My brother bought an electric bike. He lived in vancouver Wash when he had it. Said it was pretty cool until you got in the hilly area then it bogged down and realy sucked the juice right out of the battery.

E-bikes really are a boon to urban riders to conserve energy.

One mistake buyers often make it they forget about gearing.
Lack of good gearing can make any bike a slug on hills or with
loads.
