Pedego Electric Bike Test Ride
Pedego requires all their dealers to offer test drives to interested consumers. I had the opportunity to test ride a Pedego electric vehicle provided by Colorado’s SmallPlanet eVehicles out of Longmont. I started out by maneuvering it through the parking lot of City of Cuernevaca Park near downtown Denver. Then I had the opportunity for a fairly long ride on the Platte River Trailall the way from Denver to Thornton. I was impressed by numerous Pedego qualities
Pedego
including:
- The ride was incredibly quiet and smooth.
- The battery seemed to last forever. After riding for over 12 miles, the power indicator was still near the full mark.
- I liked the option of using a combination of pedal and electric power or throttle powered propulsion. This gave me full control of how much exercise I was getting as opposed to how much electrical boost the bike was giving me.
- The controls on the bike were easy to find and use after only a short amount of time.
I have been pleased by the quality and selection of electric bikes out there. Pedego is a great example of how electric bikes are continually improving to meet the needs of both bicyclists and electric vehicle enthusiasts. Such electric bikes are making it possible for people of all ages and abilities to join the cycling revolution. In the long run, that will be good for the environment, for fitness and for recreation.
