I think Wal-Mart also regularly carries the Schwinn 750-W,36-VDC scooter,rated at 15-mile range at around 15-mph at the same price.It's pretty heavy also, due to the valve-regulated lead acid batteries.It is a full horsepower, and the "innards" could be implanted into something else.Ed Begely Jr. was on PBS' NOVA the other night,doing his grocery shopping on a solar-powered version of something like the Schwinn.So now,his neighbor,Bill Nye"The Science-Guy" has to come up with something better!
