For now over 15
years in the United States the Gas-Scooters has established
itself as a proper alternative means of transportation
which surprise by its inner qualities.
Powered by a range
of engine going from 21 to 57cc, develloping between
1 and 12 horsepowers, they can reach speed in excess
of 50 mph, while staying light and compact enough
to be a great help in commuting in town.
Thanks to its weight
(between 9 and 25kg), its size (rarely more than a
meter long once it is folded), the gas-scooter fits
perfectly under a desk or in the trunk of a car. This
is the way to save yourself the hassle of looking
for parking downtown far away, and walking to there.
We are a group of
passionated riders who started to brought back our
first scooters from the US. It is during our rides
on the sea-front, or downtown, that we realised that
there was a genuine interest from many people for
this sport. Unfortuinately, the only information that
could be find on the web was only commercial, biased,
or only accessible through long-term participation
in forums...
Here is our try to
guide you through this new and exciting sport, that
is going to change the way you move around. |
