The Ezee Bike

The eZee bikes are in, he said without even asking who might be on the other end. I found out that this was the long awaited day, and he told me a bit earlier that they were coming in. The store closes at 7 o'clock, and it was early afternoon. I probably would leave early but I still couldn't wait! So he told me to come into the store, leaving around four. The bikes need a bit to tune them up, so i gotta leave early. I live in Long Island, which is a couple hours away.

The brand new ezee bikes are made in Shanghai by Mr Ching’s eZeebike Kinetic Technologies. Many people found the bikes already overseas in the United Kingdom, where a distributor named 50Cycles reigns. EV NW and Nyce Wheels import bikes from the company. They are the only ones that keep bringing the eZee bike here. I was lucky to get the job as product tester at the bike shop. They hook me up with all the bikes before they hit the shelves. Job security is a huge thing, and now that the eZee bikes are coming in, and seeing how excited Bert was about the shipment, I will be doing this for a long time.

I almost got the door slammed on my face as I arrived just seconds before the store closed. The bike carries electric bikes, folding bikes, and other stuff as well. Still, regardless of the selection, I didn't make it. I will of course go back soon to spend a few hours on every single eZee bike. Check out the notes I took. They are not that long, but it is from an esteemed product specialist with minimal room for error.

I will post a full review soon, I just need to get to the shop first thing in the morning and take each of the eZee bikes for a good one hour test drive.

The folding bikes are most righteous. The parts are a dream and it was really easy to ride and get around. The batteries were awesome too. All eZee bikes come with a choice of NiMH or Li-Ion batteries/chargers. Take each of the batteries as see how they work with both bikes. This is something that doesn't happen with all electric bikes. The racks, bike lights, and fenders all are custom equipped. EZee bike has you taken care of. I think they have bells and bike computers as well. The lighting system on some of them was powered by a generator and on others by the electric bikes power system, I don't have a preference there.
