I'm gonna get 1 for Christmas I think. I've been reading up on California laws so I'm good their. I will be able to ride it in May. When I turn 16. Ill probably pay for some of it. If not all. Maybe more than half of it. Does anybody else have 1 or has had 1 in the past? If I get it on craigslist I might get the 700 lithium series. Otherwise Ill stick with the 502 series brand new. Here's the website http://www.x-tremescooters.com/electric_bicycles/electric_bicycles.html i'd use it to get to school everyday. And to go to the fish store. And so forth. Anyone have experience dealing with this brand, if so please state good/bad/terrific/horrific/etc thanks for your time.
