Pondering. - 04.05.2011, 11:57 AM

So do you take a charger to work with you, or is there enough power left to get you home round trip? Looks pretty good and seems very low profile in nature. The only obvious thing is the battery/ESC bag on the rear rack. I bet a lot of people do not even realize that it is an E-bike when they see you cruising along at 25 mph. Wondering how in the hell are you coasting so fast on level ground.

I have been pondering doing one of these for a while now, but the money is still an issue, because I would have to pull money away from something else in order to accomplish the task. I still need more time. We are about 7 miles from the US Embassy where the wife works, and so will I eventually. It would be nice to be able to drift my way to and from work on my bike without any added daily costs and without killing myself physically. THere are a few up hill stretches to deal with but nothing too demanding. Round trip would be approximately 14 to 15 miles and the traffic here is very light even during what they call rush hour, compared to just about any place we have lived so far. Rush hour in Brussels was just rediculous. It would take about two hours to get home from work by car, and was only about 3.5 miles. I only tried to do it twice and never wanted to do it again. Rush hour in Korea was not much better. I just saw an E-bike in a sports shop here in Prague and the price was in the $1300 range already built and ready to ride with dual disc brakes and a top speed of 25mph. It looks similar to the stealth bike that I saw for like $10K on the internet.


SUPERMAXX YOUR LIFE.
