An electric bike or your own non-powered bicycle with a bicycle motor kit installed lets you enjoy the outdoors, and provide the fun you deserve.
Where hills, headwinds and longer distances were once limiting factors, an electric bicycle removed these boundaries and left nothing but wide open freedom and fun - smiles are guaranteed.
Aside from an electric bike, folding bikes and kick scooters are integrated into other forms of commuting with great ease, expanding your mobility and decreasing the length of your daily commute with nothing but positive results.
We welcome you to transform your life, the lives of those around you, and soon enough the very communities that you live in.
It's finally summertime in New York City! With the warm weather comes the great Xootr kick scooter migration. We're now hearing birds singing, bees buzzing, and scooters whizzing by on York Avenue. It's a fact: less people want to take the musty underground subways to work when they can enjoy the sun and ride a Xootr kick scooter. We're selling portable scooters faster than an ice cream shop can sell cones on the first day of spring.
The Xootr MG push scooter is still our most popular, and the bright red and bright blue decks look great under the sun this time of year. We still have customers that love the retro-skateboard deck of the Xootr Cruz, as well as the solid aluminum deck on the Xootr Street.
Also, you can outfit your Xootr scooter with more accessories than a jewelry store on 5th Avenue. The accessory kit for Xootr scooters includes a rear fender brake, a carrying strap, and a carrying bag. If you haven't ridden one of these scooters yet, you should swing by our shop and take one for a test ride. Still don't believe me? Here's a quote from Jake, who stopped in to our shop on Saturday:
"I honestly can't think of any other way to travel. I own two Xootr scooters and I'm in the market for a third. I ride one every single day, and in my opinion, it's the only way to get around New York City."
are for the most part bicycles with a motor, charger, speed controller and lithium battery. The electric bicycle is not intended to be a motorcycle or moped but rather an assisted bicycle that is easier to pedal and more fun to ride than a non- powered bike. (although if need be, on selected models you can ride without pedaling up to the legal speed limit of 20mph.)
Our electric bicycle selection includes the electric powered Ecobikes, the OHM bikes from Canada, Sanyo Eneloop electric bicycle and the high performance line of eZee bikes.
are designed for portability and ease of use. The folding bicycle is popular with commuters, for airplanes, boating and RVs. Here in New York City, much like in any place with limited space, fold-up bikes make a ton of sense and are therefore our best selling product.
Our selection of compact folding bicycles includes the Brompton bike, the Strida, and a nice selection of the better quality Dahon folding bikes.
are designed to retrofit a standard non-powered bicycle or trike with an electric motor, usually powered by high performance Lithium batteries. It is in general less expensive to purchase a ready to ride electric bicycle but the electric bike motor allows you to use the bike you already know and love.
Our quality selection includes the BionX electric bike motor kit and the proven eZee electric bike conversion.

If you own a bicycle that is very unique, an electric bike conversion is the way to go. These electric motor kits can fit bicycles with rear suspension, usually not available in a large variety of "ready to ride" electric bike. Another advantage; if you are a very tall or a shorter rider, you can get the bicycle that perfectly fits you and install a "do it yourself" electric bike conversion Most electric bikes come in "one size fits most"
We just finished an article, outlining features of the electric bike conversion. Its a good starting point if you are trying to decide how to join the electric transportation crowd.

Compared to other electric bike conversion kits, the BionX motor kit is quite unique. With different levels of pedal-assistance and an intuitive torque sensor, BionX provides varying levels of power that depend on the rider's pedal power. There is also a throttle included for slight speed boosts. Regenerative braking and pedaling allow the rider to extend their trip by charging the battery on the go.

Whether you're an every-day commuter, or a vacationer on a boat, there's no doubt that a folding bike makes life easier between long trips. As more people spend their time traveling, they need a reliable bike that is both portable and convenient. Folding bike travel is perfect for a mobile lifestyle.
Here in New York City, people are always looking for efficient forms of transportation, and lately, we've seen a move for greener vehicles: electric bikes, kick scooters, and folding bikes. Small apartments don't really accommodate full-size bicycles, so folding bikes are convenient for the city-dweller with a compact lifestyle. The Brompton folding bike is our most popular brand, and is the most compact folding bike available. The award-winning IF Mode Folding Bike is a brand new, maintenance free folding bike. It is our only folding bicycle riding on full-size 26" wheels.

Spring has forcefully sprung, as our shop came to life yesterday. We put our eZee Quando folding electric bike out on the sidewalk, a floor model that has been discounted to $1300. Come in and grab it while it lasts! Speaking of electric bikes, we had a visit from Helene, one of our old customers with a Giant electric bike. She told us about her bike's theft and ended up leaving with the Ecobike Elegance electric bike. A pretty nice upgrade, going from Nickel batteries to Lithium.
Brompton folding bikes were also quite popular today. We set Patti up with a bike for her husband. She got a Brompton S2L in black (the same bike that I ride). However, while we talked about Brompton bikes, I dug out a pretty cool looking S3L in black and red (black main frame, red extremeties). She didn't end up buying it, but it has an awesome color scheme.
We also had a visit from Heng Liew, our BionX electric bike rider from Malaysia. Speaking of the BionX electric system, did you know the new rear rack batteries come with an extra DC output cable, programmable for both 6 and 12 volts? I guess they didn't discontinue this option after all.
