Slick. I live really close to work (~3km) and I think they'd be the hot ticket for commuting in the Spring/Summer/Fall.
Since it's electric, are they legal on the bike trails/paths?

Because it will likely make almost no noise I think a bicycle bell would be a good idea to warn pedestrians if riding on an established path.

It should have a horn on it I would think?
It can indeed go anywhere a bike can go in BC... Though, in BC I don't think anyone enforces any of the rules for bicycles, for example, you really aren't allowed on the sidewalk, unless the municipality has made a bylaw specifying that you can.

It does have a horn, but that would be a less than polite way of announcing your presence on a multi-use trail.
![]() I'm gonna mention the bell idea to Brad.

It depends on the method of using it, a friendly beep - beep should be ok? (except if there were a horse you may startle)

I prefer the dixie horn, though it may take up too much juice from the battery
![]() Imagine blasting through an intersection (at 32 km/h) blaring the tune from the Dukes of Hazard. You could paint the thing orange ![]()
