This
is one sweet bicycle! When you live surrounded by hills, biking can
sometimes be discouraging--you work your way up one to face another
before you've even caught your breath. This is no longer an issue with
the Zuma. Just engage the motor assist and you'll find yourself
climbing hills with minimal effort, grinning to yourself as you
recognize that you are acting like a jock! You no longer avoid rides
with lots of hills; instead, you embrace them as minor challenges as you
cruise along, enjoying the sun on your face and the wind in your hair. Make
no mistake about it, though--you're still getting exercise. In fact,
you're getting exercise and you're not even thinking about it--how's
that for a change of pace? The
Zized! Zuma builds up some of the components of the traditional bike,
so that it hold substantially more weight. What do we change? Some of
the key things are the crank and the pedals, as well as the seat post
and the seat itself. We also change the tires, replacing them with
tires which have a much higher thread count. All of these changes go a
long way in helping your bike last a long time with absolutely no
problems--and isn't that what you want from your bike? The
Zuma is a large, cruiser-style frame with a powerful 500 W hub motor,
which drives the rear wheel. The Lithium-ion 36V rechargeable battery
is 1/2 the weight of a conventional SLA battery pack and lasts three to
four times longer. The
weight capacities of the two models will still differ a lot, with the
step-thru holding 325 pounds, and the top-bar 425 pounds. This is due
to the design of the frame itself. Tech Specs
