GeoOrbital<\/b> make your bicycle electric\u2026 in 60 seconds…and they can show you how at the GO GREEN Needham Expo.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Why would anyone want an electric bike?<\/b><\/p>\n

The electric assist on a bike equipped with a GeoOrbital wheel makes riding super easy & fun. Pedal when you want or sit back when you don\u2019t. Electric bikes make exercising accessible, whether you are super fit or just want to get moving again and could use an assist. In fact, studies show e-bike riders get more exercise as they ride much more often, and for longer distances.<\/span><\/p>\n

How does it work?<\/b><\/p>\n

The Patented GeoOrbital wheel is an evolution of the orbital wheel (a wheel that has no center and \u201corbits\u201d around an empty area rather than spinning as a result of being connected to a \u201chub\u201d \u2013 think of the wheels on the motorcycles in the movie TRON). The GeoOrbital wheel replaces a standard bicycle front wheel to turn your bike into a powerful electric bike.<\/span><\/p>\n

60-second Installation\"\"<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n

The Installation takes under 60 seconds and only part that is attached separately from the wheel is a simple thumb activated throttle, which is easily clipped onto your handlebar.<\/span><\/p>\n

Never<\/b> Change a Flat Again<\/b><\/p>\n

The GeoOrbital wheel comes with a NoFlat tire, so you never have to worry about getting a flat or even checking tire pressure. By using a quality conventional tire and then filling it with special high-density foam, the tire acts and weighs the same as a traditional bike tire without the risk of getting a flat.<\/span><\/p>\n

Three Options<\/b><\/p>\n

GeoOrbital offers three model wheels: a 26\u201d model that takes up to 3 hours to recharge and allows the rider to go up to 12 miles without pedaling, a 700C\/28\/29model that takes up to 4 hours to recharge but allows the rider to go up to 20 miles without pedaling, and the new 2<\/span>nd<\/span> Gen 29 model, designed for hybrid and 28\/29\u2019 wheeled bikes. This new 2<\/span>nd<\/span> Gen electric wheel has a 35% larger battery and has a no pedal range of up to 27 miles, more if you pedal.<\/span><\/p>\n

Come see for yourself how fun riding an electric bike can be by visiting us at the GO GREEN Needham Expo!<\/b><\/p>\n
