Pedego™ has equipped their latest model with a 36 volt propulsion system that includes a lithium battery, a proprietary electromagnetic motor and a heavy duty controller.  In addition, this special edition bike has white handgrips and matching white seat.  It is a high performance electric bicycle powered by Pedego's industry leading brushless and gearless 500 watt motor.

"This is designed for basketball fans who live and breathe the Lakers," said Don DiCostanzo, CEO of Pedego™ Bicycles. "The Pedego™ is the best value, high performance electric bicycle in the market."

Unlike competitive ebikes, all Pedegos™ are designed from the ground up to be electric bicycles.  High grade aluminum is exclusively used in the construction of the lightweight frame.  Pedego uses brand name components on its complete line of electric bicycles including SRAM and Shimano.  

Environmentally conscious consumers will be pleased to know that the Pedego™ is powered by any combination of pedal power and electricity.   Whether you pedal exclusively for fun exercise, use the throttle activated power to assist pedaling or use the throttle alone without pedaling, the Pedego ™ puts you in complete control.
