The Electric Motor Vehicle Company is proud to announce its own range of
electric bikes called GEOBYKE. The company has specified all the best readily
available components and had these built into high spec frames manufactured by
Geobyke in China.
“ Geobyke is a very reputable bike manufacturer and we carefully reviewed its
ability to produce the best bike to suit our Southland environment. We have also
designed a full range of E-Bikes to suit all ages, experience and uses. “ says Alex
de Boer, Managing Director.
The E-Bikes are designed to overcome all the issues and concerns most potential
buyers have. This includes maximizing the range by having the largest possible
batteries, and maximizing the power available to get up the steepest hills. Also
included are 5 levels of power assist up to speeds of 45kmph including an
accelerator to give an initial burst of energy when getting started. “ We can do all
this, including high quality components by being involved in the value chain right
from the start without having to push the prices up. Everyone gets great value at a
competitive price “ adds Mr de Boer.
The range includes the major sellers which are the high-step and low-step cruiser
E- bikes designed for on-road commuting as well as being able to confidently take on the extensive and beautiful natural trails throughout Otago and Southland with the confidence of knowing they will last the distance for range, power, and reliability. This allows older people, who would not otherwise venture into these areas to enjoy the beauty of our native surroundings with their families and friends.
Our signature E-bike is our full suspension mountain bike with its 48-volt power
system, 840Wh battery capacity, 29inch wheels, and manual dropper seat post. The suspension and braking is excellent. All the detail is available on our special website
www.geobyke.nz.
Also in stock are 2 types of E – Scooter. One is for commuting on our cycle lanes
and footpaths and the other with twin motors and suspension to take on the rough
terrain.
We also have our specialist E-Bikes . These include our popular E-Trike , a 3-
wheeler for those with stability issues or wanting to commute to visit friends or do
some shopping. It comes complete with shopping baskets front and rear and can
even carry the family dog for an outing.
The Fold Up E-Bike can fit in the boot or the campervan to avoid bike carriers and
be taken on holidays to ride trails and commute to town or scenic spots while the
vehicle can be left at the campsite.
The cargo E-Bike is a new edition. It can fit 2 batteries for an extended range and
has a large, sturdy parcel tray for holding a crate if you have a home delivery
business. It can also carry a passenger such as when you want to take your child to school or shopping with you.
Also in the range is a Comfy E-Bike with fat tyres to take on the sandhills, soft
ground or a spot of fishing along the beach where your car may run into a few
issues.
Come in and see us at our shop at 279 Dee St and try them all out and have a
good discussion.
