0:48 WHERE'S THE BATTERY?

[everhart88]

The battery in in the foot board. It is a sealed 48 volt pack.

how much can i buy one of these for?

and so does it run on electric or gasoline? because it says its 1500 miles per gallon, but then you say it's electric powered.

please respond

[everhart88]

They ask $1000 but since they are not selling you can get one deeply discounted.

How come they never pedal during the demo's?

[everhart88]

They are awkward to pedal. The pedals areon the unit to qualify it as a bike in Florida. You can pedal - but it is hard because the pedals are to far apart (width).

I own a XB-502 made by Extreme Scooters, and it looks almost identical to this. The guy in the video is wrong about sidewalks though.  These are motorized vehicles, and are not allowed on sidewalks. In fact by law, bicycles aren't allowed on sidewalks.

GIO's suck! sorry the charging system is backwards! meaning u can't borrow your buddies charger if u forget yours.if she he owns an emmo or raptor..

Stinger. its backwards.... I live in Toronto. pedals have to stay on... and helmets worn. obey the laws! not as cyclists DONT! they get away with everything. the new ones go faster now 32 clicks not like older ones only 20.

20 miles an hour? Isn't it faster by foot?

[RyaKunWT]

Pretty cool little scooters. 20 mph speed (32 km/h) or so.

Good range and a good price.

It is a excellent alternative to gas powered vehicles.

Especially with the price for gas.

It has lights so you can ride it safely as night.

Honestly, I dont know why more people arent using these yet.

Its good for the environment and for your own wallet.

I'm guessing its the speed that does it, people tend to overdo it when it comes to speed.

One question: Can you pedal and use the motor simultaneously?
