wjsw Posted September 10, 2007 Share Just thought I inform the cycling community. Now it is possible to commute with your cycle and keep training. The eZee range of electric bicycles makes it possible to cycle to work in the morning without sweat and ''train' back home in the afternoons. It gives you a great quality cycle (all magura, shimano components), but with some electrical assistance...making it practical and fun. See www.ezeebike.co.za and please leave comments or questions. Already people in the cities are using this as an viable alternative transport solution, and at 40 cents/100km's this makes absolute sense. Especially for someone who loves to cycle! The eZee Torq was voted Cycling plus cycle pick of the year and thousand of people around the world use this bicycle to keep training and commute. It has won numurous prices around the globe.

Delgado Posted September 10, 2007 Share Does it come with Tri-Bars?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pastapouch Posted September 10, 2007 Share Does it come with Tri-Bars?? I've seen it in Popularmechanics @ R12000. A bit steep I think. And once you go onto busy roads 80KM/H I don't think you'll be alive for long. And for long distance I think it might be a bit risky.cervelo2007-09-10 06:27:24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wjsw Posted September 10, 2007 Share Remember that eZee bikes are still bicycles, so if you do not consider cycling in the first place as an viable alternative for you (I mean Jhb - Dbn ???), then these cycles will not suit you. I can gather from some replies that you have not tested one of these bicycles. There is a huge FUN factor that should be experienced. It is great to know that there is assistance available when required, especially if you do not want to be sweaty when going somewhere. <?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />Regarding the price, the components are of the highest quality and standard and you would almost pay the same for a non-electric bicycle with the same quality. About fitting tri-bars, it is a normal bicycle with state of the art electronic components?no problem fitting anything that would fit a normal cycle.It is quiet, clean and convenient. Obviously you would need to have a route that is safe to use this for commuting and it is not for everyone. As far as safety goes, you need to consider that you have assistance that could get you out of tight spots, making an electric cycle much safer than a conventional one.

Gumpole Posted September 10, 2007 Share F driving to Durbs, trucks will kill you...butI am gonna buy one of these, train on the 'power collector mode' and then do the 94,7 in eezee mode but still give 100% effort.... Me and the battery will give out 400watts for the duration on a 'dikwiel' - magic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjsw Posted September 10, 2007 Share No power collector mode bug rodgers, charges like a cell phone. Plugs into normal 220V socket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
