The A2B electric bike from Ultramotor has been around since August last year, but it is still getting a lot of attention whenever tested. I had the opportunity to take it for a spin and the summarizing feeling from the experience was: smooth. It looks cool, it's easy to use and it seems sturdy. Even for me, a 6'5" foot, 260 pound Swedish reporter, the bike was surprisingly quick and easy to get moving. Once I straddled the bike I got the same feeling as when I tried out a scooter for the first time: Will it bark off out of control and how do I stop it? more

You want exercise? You want to help the environment? WTOP may have found the perfect vehicle for you that still has all the power you need. It's called the A-2-B bike, or the Ultra-Motor. It acts like a regular bike, except with a flick of the wrist, you can activate the electric motor to get up to 20 miles per hour in a hurry. more

One of the highlights for me at this show was the chance to take a quick spin on an electric-powered bicycle called the Ultra Motor A2B. This new eBike, which was designed in Germany for the U.S. urban market, was among several models being shown at the ELV Motors booth. The A2B, which costs about $2,700, is a seven-speed bike with full front and rear suspension and disc brakes. It houses a 36-volt Sanyo lithium-ion battery in its rectangular downtube and has a 500-watt electric motor in its rear wheel assembly. The bike weighs 72 pounds. You can pedal the A2B normally or, by flipping a switch, ride it like an electric scooter. more

You want mad points? Give her a bike for Christmas, just like when she was a kid. The A2B isn't just any bike, though -- it's an electric assist bike with a full suspension that'll run for 20 miles on a charge at 20mph. Sure, she'll look a little goofy around the squares, but she'll be the star of the next Critical Mass. more
