The Currie Technologies EZip Men's Trailz Electric Bicycle Review

I have seen lots of different electric bikes on the market. I have noticed that people seem to like them and they are good ways to travel form point A and Point B. Also, they are great ways to slim down. An obese person that is unable to fully ride a bicycle could purchase a cheap electric bike. These bikes are able to assist a person in peddling. So an over weight person could operate the bike with the help of an electric motor. Instead of using a scooter or electric Hoveround that does all the work an electric bike allows you to get into shape. Generally, these bikes run from the mid 450's to over 10 K.

I think for just getting around the $450.00 to 1200.00 range is ideal. Anything more than that in my opinion is overkill. There are hundreds of retailers that one can purchase one of these bikes from. Some bike builders will custom make them if you want but that is more pricey.

As I was searching around for an electric bike of my own I wondered what would be the best electric bike? I came to the conclusion that this would be a bike that worked well for my personal situation. I didn't want to spend a whole lot but I wanted to be able to have a good quality bike that I could add upgrades and accessories to, had a good warranty and the builder stood behind it for service and maintenance. I settled on the Men's Trailz Electric Bicycle. I like this one because it wasn't to extreme looking, wasn't a full-fledged mountain bike, used for recreational and commuting and was sturdy.

I am a physically active person and riding a bike to and from work isn't a challenge for me. However, with the pedal assist that this bike offers I can get up those hills just a bit faster. The bike handles around 240lbs and so I am under that range. The 450 watt battery is removable so you can charge it indoors at home or at the office. What I really liked about was all the customizing you can do to it. You can add better shocks, seats, lights mirrors and tires. I doubt I would take this bike on the trails because that isn't something I do. Honestly, this bike seems sturdy but I don't think it can handle the rigors of a bike trail even though the bike is advertised as such. However, for riding around my suburban area and getting to and from work I think it will do nicely.

I like electric bikes. I think they offer a good form of exercise and alternate transportation. If you want more informatuion and pricing on these go to. www.buyelectricbike.org
