Pedego

I have had my Pedego Classic Cruiser for about a month now. The review I just read in this forum could have been written by me. I'm 53 and not in very good shape. I moved to downtown Houston about 3 months ago and found that walking to the office, stores, restraunts,the park, and just getting to know the town was wearing me out. Now I ride the bike everywhere. It is good exercise and great fun. I chose this bike because I'm big and I wanted an industrial strength bike. The Pedego has exceeded all my expectations. Now my wife wants one. Phil in Houston. more

I'm 55 year old male. Haven't driven a bike since 12 years old. I love my bike, it's more fun than I expected. I take it to work 4 to 5 times a week 2 miles away. Run errands to store, go to park even use it to go play Golf, even to go visit my kids. I'm not in shape and love it, I've pedeled my bike and have sweated and my legs were sore, so it does give you a workout if you wanted it to. Later to get my other one 5 STARS more

This bike is simply awesome. But more importantly the company pedego is superb. I got this bike locally from a horrible dealer who sold me a new bike with an old battery. I had read the reviews on facebook and on their website and found out that I was not having the same experience as all their happy customers. First, I contacted the dealer and they gave me the run around and finally never responded. Next I contacted Pedego via their website and was pleasantly surprised that I got a reply. When the company, Pedego, discovered my problem they not only replaced the battery but they delivered it to my home personally and rode with me in Hollywood Hills to ensure that I was completely satisfied with my bike. I am completely satisfied; and I am blown away by the company's values regarding their customers. more

Can't say enough about the personalized service from co-owners, Terry and Don. Not only is my Pedego Interceptor the best biking experience imaginable, I'm getting constant remarks from admirers, such as "elegance on wheels". Many thanks! more

I'd just returned in Amsterdam in March with the lasting impression of all the bikes I saw (and dodged) determined to get a bike "like those" - tall elegant stylishly dressed city folk using bikes for...TRANSPORTATION!!!! What a concept. I live in a small town - within a mile or so of my workplace and it seemed that a bike set up like those in Amsterdam would make so much sense here. Except we aren't so flat as Holland in these parts (nor so elegant or stylishly dressed). Fast forward to Earth Day. And I wander over to the local park to participate and that is when I saw them for the first time - the Pedego Electric Bike. One turn around the the parking lot (thanks Heather!!!) and I knew this was exactly the right bike! I researched electric bikes in general and Pedego in particular. Honestly, I'd never heard of such a thing. So love at first sight - on May 30th I became the proud owner of the white with mint green wheels step through cruiser (that fastest color combo). I'm a happy commuter, errand runner and having so much fun. People at work ask me...Electric bike? What's the point? Point is - you'll ride more in more conditions and you ARE pedaling. I'd like to see more of my fellow citizens adopt this commute modality. As they say in Holland - there is no such thing as bad weather - just bad clothes. I see myself using this form of conveyance most of the year. Get one. You won't regret it. more

I drove down & picked it up the day the transport company called to arrange delivery. Assembly was no problem. I didn't expect it to have KEYS! (A set for the battery, & a set for the rear wheel). I've only ridden it a few times around the driveway & up & down the cul-de-sac so far--I want to get an odometer & a BIG lock before I take it down the hill to the store. Not sure how to get the front axle caps to fit on, and the pedal bearings felt like they were a bit rough, but only when I spun them by hand. Everything worked just fine. I'm looking forward to doing my light errands around town on it. It seems to have a lot of power, & the standard tires and seat are very comfortable. more

this thing is great! doubled the speed of my commute and doubled the fun. Build to last with every part well thought out. more

Our 2 Pedego Classic Cruisers arrived today and WOW... My wife had spinal surgery THIS WEEK and couldn't resist a quick tour around the block... Well an HOUR later and we get back after doing about 10 miles and the wife feels great as the bike did all the work and was super comfy to ride. Riding an ordinary bike would have been impossible, but the Pedego allowed us to enjoy some much needed time out of the house. I am glad we upgraded to the Balloon package as the seats are super comfortable and the big fat tyres eat up the bumps. These bikes are a pleasure to ride and attract so much positive attention from the casually interested to the "Where can I buy one of those?" people who are instantly besotted. Great bikes for fun times. more

We have two and really enjoy using them. We get great mileage on a battery charge, and find then easy to peddle and operate. We do recommend these bikes for ease of use and comfort. more

Built to Last-A Perfect 10 For Fun !!! Great Customer Service more

Got my Pedego two weeks ago and have been out three times in Northern Wisconsin which is saying alot since spring hasn't even gotten here yet! Love the bike! I Iive with hills and needed the motor assist to get home. Now planning on bike commuting to work all summer and don't care that gas is over $ 4.00! Agree that customer service was super. Basket was bent slightly in shipping and was replaced without question in 2 days. more

I recently ordered my step-through cruiser and could not be happier with it. The entire process has been so easy and the people at Pedago are amazing and truly care about customer service. I had a 3 day weekend coming up and was told my bike would take about 10 days to get to me. I wanted it as quickly as possible but understood it would take some time. After talking with some people at Pedago, and to my surprise, my bike came within the week and I had it for my 3 day weekend. I took it out for its first cruise and had the best time and knew I made a great decision. I am 28 years old and love to ride my 'regular' bike for exercise, but now with this ebike, i'll ride just about anywhere! I have a lot of hills by my house and never want to ride to friends houses when going over for dinner because I don't want to arrive all sweaty and out of breath...now I don't have to worry. I can exercise on my other bike when I want, and now I can cruise around town with ease with my ebike. So fun!!!! Thank you Pedago for making such a great bike and having such wonderful people! more

Rode it to work first day i got it 33 degrees outside but who cares 2 small issues were taken care of with just a phone call. very happy with that. people i work with had to ride it and all came back with smiles. wish id bought one sooner but the price was iffy for my budget but im over it now. very happy so far. cant wait till it gets warmer. more

I ordered my Pedego and waited, with much anticipation, for it to arrive. I was not disappointed. In fact, it is more fun than I EVEN expected. I wanted it for exercise and fun and it delivers both. I am a 57 year old who feels more like 27 when I'm on this bike. It pedals so easily with no power assist, moves easily into assist mode, and goes fast on full throttle. All this fun and not really that expensive. Definitely want one for my husband ASAP. Thanks, Terry and Pedego-it's not often something (rather than someone) shows you so much fun. more

We bought two Pedego Electric bikes about four months ago and have riden them weekly. After putting over 500 miles on them together, we are agrred that they are the best present we have given each other in 27 years of marriage. We just love the bikes and the places they take us. They are trouble free and easy to ride and because of the upright, comfortable seating position, and the electric motor we can go 50 miles without fatigue. more

Awesome bike. It rides great going up the steep hills around my house. I still use pedal assist for exercise. Going down hill is even better. You don't need the battery going down hill but if you use it, you go even faster. The only drawback to the bike is the fact that my daughter can't have one as she is too young and too small. This limits where we can go together as there are many hills in my neighborhood. It will be a couple of years before I can buy her one. In the meantime, I mostly go on short rides with her and longer rides when I am alone. By the way, the service with Pedego is great. I had a problem with the first battery and Don Constanzo replaced it. The second battery works fine. I haven't gone more than 10 miles at a time and I always recharge so I can't verify how long the battery lasts yet. more

Love it love it love it! After 3 operations in recent years and gaining 70 lbs.,living in a town at the foothills of the mountains, so that any direction one goes it's either uphill or downhill. With gaining the weight,getting completely out of condition, and turning 64 years old I didn't dare try to start riding my old 21 speed hybrid. this thing is just what the doctor would have ordered had he known what I and many others now know. It not only allows me to be physically able to ride again but makes it at least 35 to 67 baguhzillion (give or take a dozen) times more fun than a conventional bike. Also the more I ride it and the more proficient I get on it (like hitting the right lever to shift up or down...DUH) etc.. the more ways and situations I find to use the motor. I always come back off from a ride babbling (probably because it's awfully hard to speak intelligibly while foamin at the mouth) about how much fun it was and some of the stunts I pulled. Like whistling and ringing my bell(yes I have a bell!) while passing two teenagers going up a hill so steep that one had to stop and push his bike. Their expletives only made me feel smug and somewhat like a kid again my smug self. To sum things up; these things are one of the best inventions of all time. ...Love it Love it Love it.

I have owned several electric bikes and this one is the best one. I am 63 with serious heart and circulation problems and this bike gets me out and about. I tend to ride it slower so I dont use up the battery as fast. I am getting over 22 miles per charge. It will go about 15+ MPH if I want to. I had a problem with the battery charger about 3 days after I bought it. I called the Company and the Owner answered the phone after business hours and FEDX'd me a brand new charger, at no charge to me, the next day along with a T-shirt for my troubles. When this battery gets older, I intend to buy the better battery and piggy back it on top of the other battery for a back up situation. Feel free to email me with any questions about this bike. It is great. I am surprised I don't see more of them around. I believe it is the best electric bike on the market. more

We got two for the trails in Florida. These are just right. I may put a larger chainwheel to get a slighter higher gear ratio as I could easily manage and it would take me further on less battery. Am getting them fitted out with lights and bags. Hope to get a lot of use as we cannot walk these long trails any more. more

The bike is fantastic. I've ridden it on country roads and in-city. The boost from the motor's support makes it easy to get up and go when navigating traffic, and allows me to ride further and longer with shear pleasure. It is so easy to remove the battery for charging in the house. This is the most comfortable bike I own now or have ever owned. I used to have trouble keeping up with the kids...it's now the other way around, even without using the motor because I'm always fresh. They made me feel like part of the family -- I was surprised not to get an invitation for Thanksgiving (really guys?). Service couldn't be better. I LOVE MY BIKE!!!!!! more
