While the demand is high, Best Buy may do well with this move that they will be carrying e-bikes for consumer demand. Best Buy will be piloting electric-powered personal transportation products at some stores on the West Coast later this spring. Initially, e-bikes by Currie Technologies and Ultra Motor will be available.

According to Bicycle Retailer Magazine, Currie Technologies will be supplying Best Buy with six different Izip models, ranging in price from $499-$2,000. The Southern California-based company will also provide Best Buy with two electric scooters at $299 and $599, according to Currie president Larry Pizzi.

Pizzi also added that these electric bikes will be sold in around twenty stores at first, but that a “larger roll out” was possible for around Christmas time.

This product is not available at Keetsa.

    The bike in the photo looks interesting. Looks like the UltraMotor A2B with a 2nd battery pack on hte rear rack for extended mileage or climbing lots of tough hills. The info doesn't make it clear that the price of the A2B is in the same range as the Currie products, but I'm sure it's affordable.

    As always, remeber to check the mfgr's warranty...very important.
