Crystalyte Phoenix Cruiser Electric Bike Kit Description:
- back to top -
The
Crystalyte Phoenix Cruiser Electric Bike Kit (bicycle not included) adds "power on demand" to your favorite pedal bicycle. You can ride your electric conversion bike like a regular bicycle, travel by 100% electric motor power alone, or any combination of the two. Phoenix kits are the most powerful electric bike kits on the market. The 4840 system boasts an outrageous 2.6 HP! The Cruiser offers an even balance of torque and top speed. You get a top speed of 24 mph on the 3640 system and 30 mph on the 4840. While the 4840 is torquier than the 3640, both power systems offer great hill climbing, accelleration and movement over uneven or rough terrain. The Cruiser has an advantage on long, steep hills and will sustain its top speed under more strenuous conditions than the Phoenix Brute and Racer models. The Crystalyte Phoenix Cruiser Kit is customizable to suit your wants and needs. You choose the power output (3640 or 4840 system), front or rear wheel drive, rim size, throttle type, and the bicycle that you prefer for the base platform. The kit comes pre-wired and easy to install.
If you’re looking for true freedom on the road, electric bikes are the way to go. They’re fun, eco-friendly, quiet, cost pennies a day to charge and are a great way to bypass the price at the pump! No license, no insurance, no parking problems. Ride them anywhere you can ride a pedal bike. The "electric bicycle" classification allows you to operate without registration or a driver's license in most states. Phoenix systems exceed federal power and speed limits for electric bicycles, so they may be an exception to the rule. Make sure to check local laws before purchase.
