Anyone that's bought an E-bike or plans to, if you send me a msg with your email I'll email you a 2 page doc you can print out & carry with you to show anyone who DARES tell you they're illegal!
Yes that is probably true, in Germany you probably do need a license, the manufacture also needs to have EEC approval. We are the manufacture of these e-bikes, if there is anyone in a European country that wants these e-bikes, we can get the EEC needed. We also have EEC on our electric motorcycles for all of Europe.
to galburey,the govenor is located in the right handle bar,its a white plug in like a phone cord or ethernet cable type deal.dont have to take nothing apart just unplug it.
for ppl living in NJ like me to ride this thing legally you have to keep the pedals on and go to the extreme website and print out the federal law sheet. This way if cops pull you over show that to them and you'll be fine
I just bought one form the Scooter Net Store on the web. They ship right to your door and they are dirt cheap. The scooters smoke the Gopeds right out of the box!
No license needed although you should ask your locals to be sure there are no restrictions. It is not a vehicle so you cannot license it anyways, it's a scooter.
Pedals is needed when you climb up a hill. These assist the motor when the percentage of the degrees of the hill is up to 20. The absence of these pedals can do hot the motor because you are not in measure to assist it when it is necessary to do it.
In NJ and NY you can get a scooter registration at your DMV I am told. As for power assisted bicycles, if you have your pedals on they cannot arrest you for riding a bicycle. If you don't explain the pedals, you might get some problems from someone that does not know.
You cannot register it as a moped because it's NOT a moped, it's a power assisted bicycle and it's classified as just that.
A motorized bike (moped) is a pedal bicycle with a helper motor and is exempt from inspection requirements. For a vehicle to qualify as a moped, it must meet all four of the following conditions: * Be classified as a pedal bicycle * Have a motor with less than 50 CCs * Cannot have more than 1.5 brake horsepower * Maximum speed cannot be greater than 25 MPH on a flat surface
This XB-508 falls in lower than the moped laws your looking at because it's an electric power assisted bicycle, not an electric moped, reason for this is that it has pedals. There is no VIN number, no need for a license plate, no need for a drivers license, the max speed for e-bicycles is not suppose to be more than 20 MPH and we advertise this as 20 MPH, it cannot have more than 750 watts of power, this one has 550 watts and the brake horse power is far less than 1.5
I've seen people riding regular bycicles on the busy streets, but they look older like 20 - 25 in age. Is there a age requirement for riding on the street in Iowa? I've also seen the 500 model on the road, he looked like he was around the same age.
There is no age requirement that I know of. Generally, you need to follow the same laws that are in place in your state for bicycles since this is simply a power assisted bicycles.
r these legall in so cal cuz i might be able to get one if they r legal for a year old to use and r u alowed to use them on the sidewalk please reply thank u
Power assisted bicycles are legal in California where you live. You must follow the laws and rules of the bicycle. These do not need any drivers license, registration, insurance or anything like that. You can drive it like you drive your bicycle, it's likely there is a helmet law in your state etc... you just need to follow the bicycle laws.
I have a question i turn 14 in september and i was thinking about getting this scooter and iam about 5"3 and i was wondering would this big too big, or is this just for adults, and do you need to be 16?please reply thank you.
In most all states the only requirement for a power assisted bicycle is that you follow the bicycle rules, so what ever laws are in place for bicycles, you must follow those when riding a power assisted bicycle.
Age 14 through age 100 is fine for this bike or any of the e-bikes.
Be careful baltimorecity1, the Maryland Dept. of Motor Vehicles is more strict than some other states on requirements for motorized bikes. I used to live there.
Nice video. I am 57 year old female and I a going to get one of these scooters. Gas prices are driving me to this. I use to own a motor cycle. years ago. I thnk a motor cycle would be a little too much for me right now; so scooter, here I come. I think everyone should own get a scooter.

in Canada you need to have the pedals on for it to be considered a bicycle. Then you don't need a license or to insure it.
