• What are the advantages of a Class 2 moped?

  What are the advantages of a Class 2 moped?

  A Class 2 moped offers several advantages over a regular electric bicycle, particularly regarding motor power and ease of use. With a more powerful motor and a throttle reaching up to 25 km/h, you get a smoother and more effortless riding experience.

  The throttle allows you to easily choose between pedaling with electric assist or sitting back and letting the motor do the work, which is especially convenient for longer rides where you want to minimize effort.

  Smooth Speed Control in Urban Environments

  The throttle gives you full control over your speed, which is ideal in city environments where cycling lane speeds can vary. You can easily adjust your pace without pedaling, making it easier to navigate crowded or narrow paths where overtaking isn't possible.

  Extra Power on Hills and with Heavy Loads

  The stronger motor on a Class 2 moped is a major advantage on steep hills. You avoid unnecessary strain and get much more support than with a regular electric bicycle. If you have a passenger, such as a child on the rear rack, the motor provides the extra power you need for safe and stable driving.

  Check Local Traffic Rules Abroad

  In Sweden, Class 2 mopeds follow specific traffic regulations, but these rules may differ in other countries. If you plan to use your moped abroad, it’s important to check the local traffic laws.

  Class 2 Electric Moped vs. Electric Bicycle – Which Vehicle Suits You Best?

  Choosing Between a Class 2 Electric Moped and an Electric Bicycle
  Choosing between a Class 2 electric moped and an electric bicycle can be challenging since both vehicle types have their advantages. Here’s a brief and clear summary to help you find the option that best suits your needs.

  Class 2 Electric Moped – Power and Comfort
  A Class 2 moped is an excellent choice if you need a more powerful motor and greater flexibility. Here are the key details:

  • Motor Power: Maximum 1000W.
  • Speed: With a throttle, you can reach up to 25 km/h.
  • Riding Modes: Our electric mopeds feature both a throttle and pedal assist, allowing you to choose between accelerating with the throttle or receiving assistance while pedaling.
  • Insurance: A traffic insurance is mandatory, but we recommend comprehensive insurance that also covers theft.
  • Requirements: You must be 15 years old and hold a driving permit. If you were born before October 2009, no permit is required.

  Advantages of an Electric Moped:

  • Extra power for steep hills and heavy loads, such as carrying a child on the rear rack.
  • Smooth speed control with the throttle, ideal for city environments with varying traffic speeds.
  • Comfortable and flexible for longer distances or daily commuting.

  Electric Bicycle – Simple and Easy Ownership
  An electric bicycle is an energy-efficient and low-maintenance choice for those who don’t need extra power. Here are the key features:

  • Motor Power: Maximum 250W.
  • Speed: Electric assist up to 25 km/h through pedal assist.
  • Throttle: Our electric bicycles include a limited throttle that works at walking speed (5 km/h) – perfect for helping you out of, for example, a bike room.
  • Insurance: No separate insurance is required; electric bicycles are typically covered by your home insurance.
  • Rules: No age limit or helmet requirement.

  Advantages of an Electric Bicycle:

  • Light and worry-free ownership with fewer insurance and regulatory requirements.
  • Perfect for short trips where extra power isn’t necessary.
  • Flexible use with smooth pedal assist.

  Which Vehicle Is Best for You?
  If you value power and comfort, a Class 2 electric moped is the right choice. On the other hand, if you’re looking for a simpler, regulation-free option for shorter trips, an electric bicycle is perfect.

  No matter which vehicle you choose, we offer a wide selection of electric mopeds and electric bicycles to meet your needs. Contact us for advice or visit us for a test ride!

• Why the wide tires?

  Why the wide tires?

  Our vehicles are equipped with wide balloon tires that not only provide a stylish and robust look but also contribute to enhanced comfort during your ride.

  With these wide tires, you can easily adjust the tire pressure to customize the level of cushioning you desire. Want a softer riding experience? Lower the tire pressure for better shock absorption.

  For added peace of mind, our electric bicycles and mopeds come with original tires featuring Kevlar-based puncture protection. This reduces the risk of punctures by up to 50%, ensuring a worry-free ride on various surfaces.

• Can you bring it on public transport?

  Can you bring it on public transport?

  In some cases, it is allowed to bring a bicycle on public transport, but the rules vary depending on the transport company operating in your region. We recommend checking the local regulations by visiting the transport provider's website or contacting their customer service by phone for more information and guidance.
