We repair electric Scooters and Bicycle for a cleaner environment.

At ElectroScooterWorks we repair electric powered scooters and bikes from the popular name brand electric scooters and bicycles such as Razor, Blade-Z, Currie, Mongoose and Schwinn. Our services also include hub motor installation with the German Heinzmann system and Falcon (Crystalite) hubmotors. We also repair E-Max and Kasea full-size scooters.

Many of our other customers include commuters who use their scooters to travel to work and the recreational user.

A Note About Internet Scooters

With the invasion of the Chinese scooters sold over the internet we get many requests to repair the Boreem style scooters. Many arrive at their owner's door broken or inoperable.

At this time we are no longer repairing the Boreem style scooters shown to the left. These have been a source of trouble requiring multiple repairs and are also unsafe.

ElectroScooterWorks' main concentration of repair are the Mongoose, Schwinn, Razor Blade-Z scooters and some electric powered bicycles.

Scooter Repair Procedure (as of June 22, 2007)

Each repair requires a $50 non-refundable deposit paid by check or cash. If the customer agrees to the repair the deposit is applied towards parts and labor. If the customer decides not to repair the scooter, the deposit pays for our time spent to troubleshoot the scooter. If two or more scooters are brought in the deposit is $40 per scooter.

We will perform the work after we notify the customer of the cost of the repair and the customer agrees to the repair. Parts ordered for repairs may take 5 days to 4 weeks to arrive depending on the vendor we work with. Our labor charge is $40 per hour. We warranty workmanship for 30 days. There is no warranty on parts or batteries since we have no quality control over the parts shipped to us. We use original Razor and Currie parts.

Please note if your scooter or bike is no longer in production or the seller of the scooter is out of business we may not be able to locate parts. A substitute controller may be used but you may loose lights and other accessories. Also repairs to these vehicles could take from 2 weeks to 3 months.

Currie and Schwinn Scooter Upgrades

If your Currie or Schwinn scooter needs more power to get up a tricky hill, more range, stopping power or stronger wheels, consider an upgrade.

We install disk brakes, powerful 450 and 600 watt motors, dual motor kits, motor braces, parallel battery kits and sporty mag wheels to fit many Currie based scooters and Schwinn models. These improvements will enhance the performance and range of your scooter.

The upgrade we recommend the most is the rear mag wheel since over time the torque of the motor loosens the regular spokes. Call us to set up an appointment for your next upgrade.

CUSTOM ELECTRIC BIKES

 

Stiletto

We caught the chopper craze and are pleased to announce our latest creation. A power assist Giant Stiletto featuring a Heinzmann hubmotor, a removable 36-volt NiMH battery pack, motor controller and lighting effects. This bike will cruise up to 25 mph and has built-in cruising and turbo mode. With both pedaling and electric capabilty the rider can pedal, cruise on electric power or both.

ElectroScooterWorks can install Heinzmann, Crystalite, Falcon and Phoenix hub motor conversions on either the front or rear wheels. This particular version of the Stiletto has Heinzmann motor installed on the rear.

Since the bike originally was equiped with a rear disc brake and the power wire coming into the hubmotor was on the same side of the brake we had to remove the disc brake and locate the mounts for the rear brake on the lower portion of the frame. This required welding in new brake brackets for the new rear v-brakes. All work is done in-house.

The motor that was originally installed on the front wheel of the Stiletto is now installed on our "Toe Cutter" Electric Chopper.

Both bikes were built for our partner, SkooterCommuter and the Stiletto is used daily for commuting.

Toe Cutter is one of our latest electric chopper bike projects. It features a Heinzmann hubmotor mounted on the front rim and color matched to match the rear rim. The 36-volt NiMH battery is mounted mid frame. The bike features neon lighting between the front forks, a motorcycle headlight and dual trumpet air horns. Top speed is 25 mph and we installed a smaller sprocket up front for easier pedaling.

 

Heinzmann Hubmotor Installation

For power assist bicycles we install the Heinzmann hub motor system. Available for bikes from 16" to 27" inches. The hub motor is built into the hub of the wheel eliminating the need for sprockets, belts and chains.

We can have a hub motor installed for your bike's particular rim size and install the battery and controller. Systems are available from 24 to 36 volts and we can also install the system on a pedicab. Call us for further details.

Custom Scooter and Bike Work

With over 10 years in the electric vehicle business converting cars to run on electricity, we have the capability to design and build many types of electric scooters and power assist bikes.

One of our latest creations is a Y3K semi-recumbant bike built for our client SkooterCommuter featuring dual Heinzmann motors powered by a 36-volt NiMH battery pack. The motors can be run together, alone or can assist as you pedal the bike up a steep hill.

Scooter Parts

Since there are a wide variety of scooters available today we cannot possibly stock every part. If your scooter needs a part that we do not have during the repair we can give you the option of expedited shipping if the part is available from the vendor. If the company that built your scooter is no longer in business we can substitute other parts such as a throttle, motor and controller.

If you are interested in purchasing a new scooter or electric bike, we are a partner with SkooterCommuter in Bethesda, Maryland which sells Kasea electric scooters.
