The eGO Electric Motorcycle

Twice as cool as a Vespa, half the work of a moped, ten times cleaner than both put together 

We've been trying hard to hold off featuring the eGO Cycle, you know, trying to build some suspense. But the holidays are coming up and we wanted to give everyone ample time to pick one up for a loved one (hear that, Mom?)

57.jpgForget that it's the most expensive item on our Top 30 Countdown, the eGO Classic is also proportionately the coolest. It definitely has the best name. Show up to work on one of these and prepare to be adulated. The eGO has a top speed of 24 mph (which, granted doesn't seem all that fast when you're in a car, but is pretty impressive if you're walking). It goes zero to 20 mph in less than 4 seconds. The ride? Smooth as a baby's bottom. Gotta go up a hill both ways? Cake. The eGO Cycle will climb a 15% grade at 18 mph with a 170lb rider. There's even special climbing gear available from eGO if you live in a super hilly area.

Just plug the eGO into pretty much any electrical outlet and you're ready to roll. In three to five hours you're fully charged. Perfect for commuting to work, running weekend errands, or tooling around the neighborhood soaking up the envy.

    It is tiring attempting to add the time we have invested looking for dirt bikes pages.
