New Improvements for 2008!
After several years of very successful service the "Electric Speed Racer" ESR 750 Go-Ped product line has been greatly improved for 2008.
Along with an innovative new self adjusting chain tensioner, the heart of the 2008 improvements are from a new, and much more efficient motor.
The new ESR motor has the following enhancements;
Significantly thicker and much more powerful Rare Earth magnets. Brushes and heat producing components are now better located within the new and better heat transferring aluminum "E Head". All precision sealed ball bearings at each end of the motor shaft replacing previous brass bushings. Commutator/brush drag cut in half. Larger armature copper wire diameter for reduced resistance and unwanted heat. Higher motor RPM operation to improve efficiency.
The result is a significantly lower operating temperature resulting in significant ESR range and reliability and brush life increases.
The new ESR 750 and ESR750EX come now equipped with a new 13/82 sprocket ratio and 110 chain length to take optimum advantage of the new motor for the world's best speed, range and hill climbing ability versus electric vehicle weight.
If you are looking for a longer range, reliable, powerful and compact energy efficient means of transportation, the ESR750Ex is the New Machine to keep you going.
