One company that has been in the electric scooter business for a while now is Currie Technologies. They have introduced the Ezip 900 that is an upgrade from their Ezip 500. This scooter gives the rider more power to climb hills as well as go faster and ride longer. They have produced one of the most eco friendly and efficient scooters on sale in today's market. They stand behind their products with a 90 day factory warranty. The philosophy of the company is that their electric scooters, hybrid bikes or electric bikes will outlast the competition. The development of the electro drive propulsion system has a patent on it.
The battery is easy to charge so that you are always ready to go. Generally a rider can go around fifteen miles per hour with more than a ten mile radius. The size and weight of the rider will of course make a difference on the length of the trip as well as the top speed of the scooter. The throttle has a twist grip for easy use and it gives you the different speeds you need for the different circumstances you will find.
The deck has been prepared with anti slip ABS resin. Durable high tension steel has been used for the frame and the scooter has a front disc brake system. The tires on the scooter are three inches and with the front suspension fork the rider can adjust easily to any terrain. The weight capacity is 240 pounds and riders under the age of thirteen shouldn't be using the Ezip 900.
One quality that has been very popular is the seat that can be removed. The power that the Ezip 900 exhibits is great for making longer trips so if you use your scooter for errands you should have plenty of energy stored to go to the pharmacy in your area.
Assembly is required for the scooter so if you don't have any tools for this type of job you may wish to pay a bit more to get the electric scooter put together for you. A comment has been made that the reflectors that come on the scooter are inadequate for evening rides. You may wish to invest in more reflectors or replace the small ones with larger ones.
Students have found that the Ezip 900 Electric Scooter is great for getting around campus. One customer weighed 210 pounds and found that it could get him up gentle hills with no problem. The people that have already purchased this model also felt that there wasn't any terrain that they couldn't go on. You won't have to be concerned about running on a low battery far from home because of the display for the battery life at the top part of the handle.
