Best Buy To Carry Electric Bikes

Posted by Brian | Bikes, Electric Scooters | Posted on May 12th, 2009

It may be seen as a business move but Best Buy will be adding electric bikes to its fold to address the growing trend of transportation commuters and people are looking for today.

“Best Buy will be piloting electric-powered personal transportation products at some of our stores on the West Coast later this spring,” said Paula Baldwin, senior manager for Best Buy public relations. At first, 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.
