The Ultimate Off-the-Grid Transportation

 

We are excited to introduce, to our customers and subscribers only, the Solar Bike System. The Solar Bike System is the ultimate off-the-grid transportation that you'll want to use every single day ... for practical reasons and for just plain fun.

The Solar Bike is one of the most versatile modes of transportation you will ever encounter. First and foremost, the Solar Bike is just that - a bicycle. But that's just the beginning. The electric motor (powered by free sunlight) turns an ordinary bike into a versatile, utilitarian means of short-range transportation. It's specially designed to work with our most popular solar generator, the PowerSource 1800 (more about that in a moment). And because it's legally considered a bicycle, you don't need a license or insurance like you do with mopeds and motorcycles.

The Solar Bike is ideal for use with all kinds of lifestyles, for all kinds of purposes, and in all kinds of economic climates. Whether you're a city dweller, a suburbanite, or live out in the country, you will be amazed at how useful the Solar Bike is in your everyday life. When times are tough, it will be a godsend. When times are good, it will be icing on the cake.

The Solar Bike is useful for any stage or circumstance of life:

Recreational use - Even if you haven't been on a bike for years, you'll love the Solar Bike. Now you can enjoy getting outside in the fresh air and sunshine and riding bikes with your spouse, kids or grandkids. You don't have to worry about keeping up with the younger folks. The beauty of this bike is that it gives you "pedal assist" whenever you want it, so even couch potatoes won't lag behind their biking companions.

Everyday utilitarian use - How far do you drive to return your library books? Or pick up a loaf of bread? Or mail a package at the post office? Chances are, most of your errands are an easy drive away. And that makes them an ideal bike destination. Compact cargo space on the back makes the bike a practical alternative to your car. And no more hunting and stalking for a parking spot, either. Parking is a breeze when you can just lock your bike to a rack, pole, or tree.

Commuter use - Sell the car, cancel your gym membership, and bike to work! The Solar Bike makes it easy to become a one-car family. If you live within 10 miles of work, as millions of Americans do, why not bike instead? The savings on car repairs and insurance will be huge. You won't have to worry about traffic jams, because it's much easier to get around gridlock on a bike. You won't arrive at work all sweaty, either, because the motor does much of the work.

Natural disaster use - When there's any kind of natural disaster, it can be difficult or downright dangerous to get around by car. After hurricanes and earthquakes, you can't pump gas because the power is out. Obstacles often block the road. With your Solar Bike, the sun provides the fuel, and if obstacles block your path, you can simply lift and carry your bike around them before resuming your ride.

Gone-to-hell-in-a-handbasket use - In developing nations around the world, bicycles are a precious commodity. They know something we don't... that when times are tough, bicycles are a reliable, safe, and indispensable form of transportation. Whether it's a collapsed economy, a collapsed power grid, or anything else, your Solar Bike will provide off-the-grid transportation that will be more valuable than gold.

Why You Should Be Concerned About America's Vulnerable Car Culture
The United States is a car culture, plain and simple. And while we all like the freedom of getting into our car and going wherever we please, the party is winding down fast. Between ever-rising gas prices and the threat of disasters, our dependence on automobiles makes us all extremely vulnerable. Here are just a few facts that should give you pause:

  • Gas prices under President Obama have doubled, and show no signs of easing back down.
  • The current administration doesn't believe lower gas prices are important, no matter what lip service they seem to give it. Obama's handpicked Secretary of Energy, Steven Chu, told the Wall Street Journal in 2008 that "We have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe." That's over $9 per gallon.
  • It's not uncommon in Los Angeles these days to see gas over $5 per gallon.
  • NSA Director General Keith Alexander recently warned that the hacker group Anonymous will soon be capable of bringing down the power grid - and when the grid goes down, so do the gas pumps.
  • The power grid is also vulnerable to natural or man-made EMP events; Congress has failed to act to shield the grid, despite dire warnings by experts. Again: no power, no gas.
  • Oil prices jumped to over $120 per barrel in February when Israeli authorities announced they were considering attacking Iranian nuclear facilities. Iran retaliated by halting oil imports to France and Britain. As an ally of Israel, could the U.S. be far behind?
  • According to Deutsche Bank, threats to the oil supply are the highest they've been since the 1970s oil crisis. Political turmoil affecting countries like Bahrain, Iraq, Nigeria, and Sudan are impacting worldwide supplies.
  • Iran has threatened to shut down the Straight of Hormuz, through which flows 15 million barrels of oil per day.

When you think about how vulnerable our current transportation system is, a Solar Bike is a no-brainer. Whether it will be some big catastrophic event that shuts down gas supplies, or a slow and painful journey to $9 gas, is anybody's guess. But regardless of what happens, a Solar Bike could well be the smartest investment you ever make. The Solar Bike is different from any other emergency equipment you will ever buy, because you can use it every day from the moment you get it. It will have a place in your lifestyle no matter what's going on in the world.

Here's How The Solar Bike Works
Because the Solar Bike has been specially designed to work with our best-selling PowerSource 1800 backup solar generator, it uses the free energy provided by the sun. You charge up your PowerSource battery with the solar panel, and then tap into the battery to charge your bike. It's that simple.

For all the details on the Solar Bike, go to www.newsolarbike.com. Brian Brawdy and Chief Engineer Dave Fink will give you a complete briefing on this amazing piece of off-the-grid technology. The Solar Bike has been carefully designed from the ground up. Here are just some of the thoughtful design specs for the Solar Bike:

  • 500-watt motor lets you achieve speeds of up to 21mph without pedaling (and faster if you do pedal)
  • Ride up to 55 miles on a single charge ... and further if you actually pedal!
  • 7 different gears for all riding conditions
  • The largest motor and largest battery available on any electric bike
  • Durable hybrid tires for all riding conditions
  • Bright LED headlight
  • Built-in chain guard
  • Cargo rack
  • Split saddle seat for maximum comfort
  • State-of-the-art hydraulic disc brakes
  • Strategic battery placement doesn't interfere with cargo capacity and ensures low center of gravity for smooth handling

As I said earlier, the Solar Bike has been designed to work with the PowerSource 1800 to charge it up. It's a complete Solar Bike System, and we're offering it at a very special price. And if you already have a PowerSource 1800, you don't have to buy another one - you can just buy the Solar Bike.

Each Solar Bike is made to order, and a 60-day lead-time is required. To keep costs down, we make them in batches. We anticipate making just one or two batches per year.

If you want to get a Solar Bike, here's what you need to do right now. Go to www.newsolarbike.com and follow the ordering information. You will need to make a 50% deposit on your purchase. (Once your bike is in production, we will be unable to refund your deposit.) Your Solar Bike will be shipped to you in approximately 60 days. If you are getting the complete Solar Bike System with the PowerSource 1800, your PowerSource will ship in approximately 14 days.

I can't think of any other emergency equipment that has so many applications in your day-to-day life. The Solar Bike is a fundamental form of transportation that will fast become an essential in any kind of emergency or economic hardship. But it also gives you great freedom today - freedom from depending on your car and high gas prices, freedom from all the hassles of city commuting. And it's just plain fun, too. Biking is a great family activity, and with the Solar Bike, you won't get left in the dust behind the others.

With the world as crazy as it is, and gas prices continuing to climb, I expect demand for the Solar Bike to be strong. If you want to be assured of having your Solar Bike in your hands 90 days from now, don't delay. To learn more, or to order, click here.

P.S. Just think of the savings you can achieve by replacing one of your vehicles with the Solar Bike System. The hundreds of dollars of month on gas is only the beginning. How much is your car payment? How much does it cost to insure? How much do you put into maintenance and repairs each year? Conservatively speaking, replacing one of your vehicles with a Solar Bike could easily save you $8,000-$10,000 per year. Click here to order.
