The Dual Passenger E-Bike Debuts at Interbike in Las Vegas Sept. 23
IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- PEDEGO, an electric bicycle
company creating the coolest electric bicycles outfitted with the
latest in electric technology, announces the debut of the world's first
electric tandem bicycle. The bike will be on display September 23-25 at
Interbike International Bicycle Expo, the cycling industry's largest
trade show, in Las Vegas. This two-person e-bike joins PEDEGO's growing
line of electric bicycles including the Comfort Cruisers and Umbrella
Folding electric bicycles.
PEDEGO offers consumers comfortable and fun electric bike options.
The new tandem bike is designed specifically for couples of all ages
who enjoy riding together. With its electric capabilities, it allows
riders a smooth ride whether cruising across a flat surface or over
hills.
The PEDEGO tandem e-bike features a beach cruiser design with two
wide, cushioned seats, relaxed handlebars and a rear motor. Featuring
the same components as other PEDEGO bicycles, it operates much like a
regular tandem but utilizes a parallel electric drive system that
includes a 750 watt motor and 48 volt lithium manganese battery. The
battery will last about 15,000 miles and costs less than 10 cents to
recharge. The throttle is controlled by the rear rider gently revving
the right handlebar grip.
"PEDEGO fuses fashion and fun with electric bike technology, so
we're thrilled to be the first company to offer a cool tandem bike with
electric components," said Don DiCostanzo, co- founder and CEO of
PEDEGO. "As interest in electric bikes continues to grow both here and
abroad, PEDEGO remains committed to offering consumers unique, quality
bicycles available in stylish designs with customizable options."
The PEDEGO electric tandems will be available in time for this
coming holiday season and will retail for approximately $2,300. For
