Default Electric Bikes who own them and brand.

There are a number of folding electric assisted bicycles that are limited to 20mph to comply with state and federal rules that do not require insurance or licensing. Most of these would be desirable to carry in an cargo bay, etc. and use for getting supplies or cruising the resort using pedals or motor.

Please give recommendations on folding electric bikes for full time use, based on your actual user experience with cost and place of purchase.

Scott

I'm considering those folding electric bikes myself. $1200.00+ Made by Prodeco. Very nice, made in USA but again I am still researching!

Sean, that is an impressive little bike and it only weighs like 66lbs. A couple of these would fit extremely nice in your luxury coach basement by folding it up.

Here's a video I just watched. If it can travel in a yacht or an airplane, I think she would travel just fine in our coaches:

Cool electric bikes. They look like they get up there in speed too. I imagine they would be fun tag along toys!

Those are both very nice bikes and they both fold up. I'm putting them on my bucket list. They both will do 20 mph and I'm sure you can pump things up on them. From my understanding the government has a restriction limit set at 20 mph. But like everything else whether it runs on fossil fuel or electric, it can be simply modified to break the lonely rules. shssssss......


The prices on the ones listed above seems like a bargain. C'mon a lightweight folding suspension bike that is both electric and pedal made in the USA, seems like a down right bargain. Heck, Treks and a bunch of middle the road mountain bikes that will never see a trail are in that price range.

The price isn't too bad. I was expecting them to be more. I agree Ken it sounds like it's a pretty good buy. From the video clip it looks like they can go!
