Electric-assist design uses a battery-powered rear wheel motor to take the strain off a long commute, haul groceries, or lessen the impact of hills or headwinds
250W DC brushless geared hub motor is powered by the rack-mounted, removable 24V/10Ah lithium ion battery pack
2 power modes include energy-saving, pedal-assistance that drives power to rear wheel while you're pedaling; battery range of the pedal-assist feature is 15 - 22 miles
Or you can make use of the twist-and-go power mode, which drives power to the rear wheel with little to no pedaling
Motor assistance tops out at a safe speed of 18 mph
Battery gauge, power and motor controls are conveniently mounted on the handlebar; controlling power is easy thanks to convenient controls
Swept-back, low-rise handlebar and plush saddle contribute to an upright, cushioned riding position
7 pedal gears offer smooth and easy pedaling; twist shifter changes gears with a flick of the wrist
Mechanical disc brakes ensure responsive, powerful braking in all weather conditions
Smooth-rolling 700x38c tires feature Slime self-sealing tubes for excellent flat protection
Fenders and full-length chain guard help keep you clean
Battery is easy to detach from the rear rack for recharging (charger included) or for added security when you're locking the bike up outside; battery can be locked to rack
Included smart charger features an LED status display to let you know the battery's charging level
Please note: battery range distances for the Currie IZIP E3 Path DF bike can vary due to factors such as rider + gear weight, amount of rider pedaling and terrain

Comments about Currie IZIP E3 Path DF Bike - 2013:

Understand that my review of this bike is based on a 15 minute ride around my local REI once the bike came in.

I was looking for a bike that I could use for a 12 mile commute. I wanted an electric bike that would allow me to arrive at work without getting too hot, so that I wouldn't have to deal with the hassle of showering when I got to work.

This bike is highly underpowered, and not up to the task.

I opted instead for a Bionx pedal assist system that I added to a hybrid bike. It allows me to do exactly what I intended. I use about 50% of the battery getting to work, and about 20% getting home (mainly to help me get going and to get up the big hills). The Bionx assists until I am going 20mph, then I'm on my own. So I let the Bionx do more in the morning, not going as fast, and I do more on the way home. I usually just rinse my face and change my shirt when I get to work. The ride home is different - I'm well soaked.
