The Electric Bike Network  - think globally, bike locally: Electric bicycles for health and for the environment

Full Specifications: The eGo Electric Bicycle (also known as eGO Cycle 2)

The eGO Cycle2 is a pedal-less electric cycle. Turn the throttle and go! The eGO is easy to ride, has great performance on flat and moderate hills (see note below), and is reasonably priced. It’s the best choice for “no-sweat” trips to the grocery store, work or school, around the neighborhood, or across town. Conveniently plugs into any 110 volt outlet.

Note: We do not recommend the eGO for areas with signficant hills such as those found in San Francisco or the Berkeley/Oakland hills. The eGO does not perform well on steep hills. For areas with less-than-steep hills, the eGO will perform fine. With steep hills, our shops and customers have reported the eGO can have trouble with hill climbing and resulting repair problems.
