If you've ever struggled to find a parking space, paid $50 for a tank of gas, or realized that, like most Americans, 90% of your car trips are under two miles, you're not alone. A bike that completely meets your transportation needs would not only be speedy and the right color; it also must enable you to bring your stuff along.^*

In addition, most of your destinations will not have shower facilities, so you will need a bike that can get you there with little or no exertion when necessary.

We have searched around for the best solution and believe we have it! Interested? Read on ...

An attachment for your bicycle that deftly shifts your rear wheel back 15 inches. In doing so, it seamlessly adds a "trunk and a backseat" to your two-wheeler. With its built-in loading features, you now have yourself an S.U.B. (sport-utility bicycle).^*

The bicycle is the most efficient transportation device yet invented. Trouble is, modern bicycle design has been far more influenced by the needs of racers than by needs of everyday riders like you. The result: your bike is compact, light, and strong, but it doesn't have a good place to carry a watermelon, waterproof storage capacity, or a good seat for a passenger. Try to carry a load on a regular bike and you'll compromise safety, performance, or convenience and some everyday items will be just downright impossible to tote.^*

Now imagine your favorite bike, with the rear wheel stretched out behind the seat, a big, stable platform for a load or a passenger, and elegant saddlebags on either side that are expandable when you need them and are cleanly out of the way when you don't. Best of all, your bike is still lightweight and fast, and because the load is centered between your two wheels, the whole package handles with ease. Suddenly you have much less need or desire to drive around town for your errands.^*

An electric bike kit that allows your bike to travel 15-30 miles on around 5¢ of electricity! With the flick of the thumb, you can get a little boost up hills, make it feel as though you are always riding downhill, or just cruise along at 20 miles an hour!

This electric bicycle kit is manufactured by Wilderness Energy and combines an electric motor in the hub of your front wheel with a set of sealed batteries and electronics to aid or replace pedal power. It only takes a couple of hours to install on most modern bicycles if you are mechanically inclined. Add the motive power of our electric hub with the carrying capacity of the Xtracycle and you'll be ready to push your gas guzzler off a cliff!

We have thought long and hard about online orders, and decided that we want to make sure that our customers are getting what they need and what they expect. We may add online sales in the future if there is enough demand.

Most people will want to use our contact form to let us know what you would like to purchase. We will email you back with a quote (including shipping if you include your address) and our phone number. When you are ready to order, give us a call! We can accept Visa, Mastercard, or Discover.

We travel around extensively doing art festivals and craft shows in the Autumn and Winter months in Florida and up and down the East Coast. You can find us zooming around campgrounds and cruising the shows. We try to keep at least one of each kit in stock and are glad to give test-drives and do installation work for you.

If you are just looking for a ballpark estimate, you will spend around $400^.00 for each kit including shipping & accessories. If you are buying a large number of accessories or both kits, we will usually try to give some sort of discount.

• Electric Hub Conversion Kit: approximately $350-$370 + shipping and any upgrades
• Xtracycle Conversion Kit: approximately $400 + shipping and any accessories
• Installation: $50 for each kit or $90 for both

You will definitely want to purchase high pressure street tires and good brake pads for either of the kits, and don't forget your bike helmet. The Xtracycle kit requires that your bike have long-arm cantilever brakes, and we recommend the same for the electric conversion kit. These brakes provide enough stopping power for your new activities. We are glad to help you find these items at a good price.

We have complete bikes available as well. See the price lists below for pricing.
