So, since my trip to china and getting to see how well an electric bike can work I've wanted to buy one and I think the 2008 E-Zip trailz electric mountain bicycle is the best for me. Mostly because of price being 400+tax at toyrus (me=poor college student). But I do have some questions
From what I've seen from the Currie website, which is horrible, and the owners manual, I have not learned very much.
So if possible here are some questions I have because I have read for about a two days and cannot find enough information about this model.
I basically plan on using it mostly for rides no more than 5-6 miles long, (trying to save that extra bit of gas), relatively flat roads, just one hill on the way to university. Will it get the job done for me?
Motor: is it brushed or brushless?
Battery: I know its stock with lead acid, but when I'm ready, does anyone have a good place/website to find the lithium or nickel batteries for replacements. I live in Long Beach, Los Angeles area, but a website will be just as good.
Dont figure it would be a problem but just in case, I'm just barely over 6ft tall, its' a good size bike for me, right?
Thank you all very much, I'm really excited to get my first electric bike.
Oh and if you have any other suggestions for different models, maybe below 600 dollars I'd appreciate that.
Thank you again.
