Electric bicycle

[Albatrossus]

Hey, has anyone bought or ridden an electric bicycle? I saw some at a place near the Olympic stadium. Would they last long? They seemed pretty cheap at $350 or thereabouts.

In my experience, these chinese electric suicide machines aren't fun to drive, they're dangerous and they don't last long.

Has anyone seen the bikes with the electric motor built into the front hub for sale in PP?

My mate wants to buy an electric bike on Perth.I have just looked at websites here and the bikes look good.
About $1800 for a good one.
I like the look of the folding ones,german design and with lithium batteries about $2200.
This is a great place for electric bikes with lots of bike paths.
One big shop at freo will rent one for $40 for two hours,I might go down and have a ride up the coast on Sunday morning with a tropical 22 degrees forecast.

I'm sure a Honda step through electric bike is about $400 new. No need for license or helmet as well.
