Here's my contribution to the reduction of CO2 and global warming, my recently acquired electric mountain bike!
Bought S/H.
With a 48V 10.4 Ah lithium battery and a motor of 250 watts it makes a speed of 28-30kph and gives a range of 50-70 kms when adding some pedal power.
Charging is from my solar panels (4 panels= 200 Watts)..through a sine-wave converter and is done in under four hours.
In the last few days I made a mould and laid up the box in polyester/fibre glass, it carries 20Kgs easily.
The technical specs are: the beers go at the bottom of each side, (keeping the bike stable with a low center of gravity) then if there's any room for a bag of crisps.......so be it!
Almost silent ride, no smoke, no pollution.......and charging from the solar panel is free!
I love my all electric shopping/BIF bike................... very deeply! :wub: :wub: :wub:
