EMS Provides an Alternative to Reliance on $4/Gallon Gasoline

May 22, 2008 - PRLog -- Electric bikes are becoming an increasingly intriguing option for commuters who live relatively close to work or for avid outdoor enthusiasts. As battery and motor technology forges ahead, the speed and range of ebikes surges with it, as evidenced by the new Electric Motion Systems E Plus Bicycle. Although DOT requirements force a road-going electric bike to twenty miles per hour, tops, the E is capable of thirty when traveling off the beaten path. With no pedaling at all, the E can manage twenty miles on a single charge of its 36 volt nickel metal hydride pack, which is mounted in the front hub. Pedaling along can more than double the range. A 750 Watt electric motor comes standard, mounted to the rear hub, while a 1000 Watt upgrade is available. The E uses its own aluminum frame and comes equipped with a decent SR Suntour front suspension fork.

Other cool details include the ability to dial in resistance to your pedal strokes for fitness reasons and a built-in security system which makes the bike all but impossible to pedal. All of these propriety features and high specifications are included, with the E starting at $3,495.00. The bike is available with either a cruiser or mountainbike frame.
