EBike

Sam* and Barbara*, newly married, bought a home about 15 km from Sam’s work, in a busy part of Vancouver, BC. Unfortunately, the bus routes did not work out too well for either Sam or Barbara, and finances did not easily fund the $600 per month to operate a second (cheap!) car.

Looking for alternatives, Sam tried an ebicycle conversion kit from ItsElectric. It was affordable – he could use his own ebike. It was easy to install – just replace the front wheel, the tire, attach a bike rack, plug in the wires, and Sam’s ebike was ready. the ebike was environmentally friendly (no more gasoline), and best of all his commute time dropped by 10 minutes!

“Being able to use bike paths, shortcuts, and bypass traffic light lineups actually allowed me to save time on my commute”

On his ebike Sam loves not needing to “work out” on his morning cycle commute, has enough power to double that distance, and finds that his battery recharges in less than an hour.
