Electric Bicycle

Read the news that E-max is going to sell electric scooters in Singapore soon.

So I did some internet reading up, and saw this so called Electric Bicycle that actually looks like a scooter.

The extra two pedals....somehow allows the manufacturer to get it classified as a bicycle...very smart of them!

 

Would this be a better choice for Singapore IF it can be classified as a bicycle by LTA.

Any chance?

Please read the LTA requirements for what power limits any electric bicycle must have before it will be allowed on the roads as a motorised bicycle.

 

Then read the x-tremescooters website info again for the power of the motor that their bicycle has.

 

I hope you have basic comprehension and know that 700W is greater than 200W.

 

Even IF IF IF LTA allows it to be treated as a bicycle, the damn thing is 85kg.

 

Have you tried pedalling something that is 85kg?

To ride this as a bicycle, one has to open legs wider than normal. Don't think it's easy to do the pedalling action in that position. I think backside might even slide off the seat while pedalling. In short, those pedals are for show nia!

If u had been to shanghai... this is their common transport by the people now.

 

Riding bicycle is not a norm now... they all basically had this... called the e-bike... short form for electric bicycle.
