Re: E-Bicycle in Arizona
today I cehcked and bought the newest E-bike model from Phoenix Produce. I was amazed at all the improvements from the original E-bike . Here are some of the items.
I finally got down to Phoenix Produce to check out the new E-bikes. I
bought a blue 36v E-bike so I can check more details. There are about
12 improvements.
1- alarm system, w/ electric brake and 2 remotes.
2-higher seat posts, very handy for better peddle position.
3-cover on the basket, things could bounce out on the old basket.
4- LED head light.
5- Drum bakes frot and back, it used to have a center pull bicycle
front brake. The new one is better.
6-Peddle assist controlled by throttle position, it used to just go
fast no matter what as soon as you strated to peddle.
7-New type of sealed lead acid battery, supposed to be better. (some
have reported 30 mile trips with no peddling, it used to be 20-22
miles or so. replace ments are still about $30 a battery, 3 in 36
volt and 4 batteries in the 48 volt models.
8-quiter tuen signal, (also use duct tape if you want it quiter).
9- The charger now has a fan to keep cool.
10- stronger thicker RIMs front and back.
11 - a new 3 speed button on right next to throttle. I will have to
test and see exactly what this does.(more coming as I test)
12- A new model name on the bikes, it was fujitron, now AOWA ???
The best news is Sam is going to order 10 bikes with the lithium
battery option. Sure it's $300 more but they will last 10 times
longer and are 1/3 the weight 10 lbs vs 30 lbs. IE 300 charges at
full voltage vs 3,000 charge cycles. I promised him I would buy one
as soon as they come in.
