As mentioned earlier, this ebike is capable of putting out enormous torque which is perfect for accelerating or climbing, even with gear. The motor driving the Express is a 750 watt high speed canister configuration that sits just behind the seat tube and is encased in a translucent plastic container extending from the battery and controller case in the main triangle. a smooth power output due to a super-sensitive servo actuated speed sensor and the overall weight due to the large battery capacity. With great components and a solid warranty this electric bike could be a good fit for commuters but the big downsides include the louder noise it produces when riding (as shown in the video review above), a bit of “surging” vs. The Express was designed from 2008 to 2012 when it was delivered to the LAPD and has since become available to the public through Currie Technologies at a sale price of ~$2,800. I believe the LAPD still has some of these bikes but their use is limited due to the overall weight of the system at ~62 lbs which can make transport and carrying up/down stairs difficult. The bike achieves that and more with a top speed of ~28 mph and well balanced custom battery/motor combination that puts out 92 Newton Meters of torque (higher than any other ebike I’ve tested to date). The goal was to create an ebike that could withstand the varied terrain of an urban environment, transport equipment and gear easily and last an entire day without running out of batteries. The IZIP Express Special Edition is a purpose built electric bike that was originally designed for the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) Bicycle Patrol Unit.
