I got mine for $299 on sale at Dick's Sporting Goods last year.

It'll run 16mph for 8 miles, lots further if you drive slower at bike
speed. The only noise is the tires on the road and a little from the
chain drive. BladeZ' are very nicely made units.

Great fun to ride, especially when the boat is a mile down a big marina's
dockage from the parking lot! Get a chain lock to secure it to something
as it is easily picked up and stolen.


I'd probably pay money to see you cruising along on that toy!

Stop by! I rode it to the barber shop this morning before the rain drizzle
started. I have a fair amount of places to ride it from home in its 8-10
mile range.

I have two 36AH gelcells under my workbench that have been looking for a
home. They are quite flat and a little wider than the scooter's deck.
That's 3 times the capacity of the 12AH AGM's that's in it, now. I might
try to experiment with them in series for 24V this spring. I'm always
worried I've traveled too far and might run out of power before making it
home. I've come in with the light yellow with no load a few times. 16 mph
on this thing is like riding a Corvette on the interstate. I'm more than
willing to lose a little speed to gain a little range....(c;

Sure beats those old fogie electric chairs they want $8000 for because some
idiot insurance company or Medicare pays for it.....

After all....I'm "only" 60!

So where will you find room for the PC, ham rig and antenna?
