Goat Power Bikes Motor Goat Dual Battery or Roll Road Emma 3.0

[Lorraine]

Looking for some suggestions, I'm getting into E-Bikes after riding my Brothers Super73 Rx and have done my research. I have 2 bikes in mind, Motor goat v3 with dual batteries and Roll Road Emma 3.0. Any suggestions on either bike? Pros, cons etc?

I recently rode a Ride1UP Revv1 DRT and it was great, suspension was awesome. they have a deal right now where you can order one and get 50% off a 2nd battery and balancer, this would be another choice for me. I do like the Revv1 but I'm drawn to the motor goat and Emma 3.

Motor Goat: Comes with Charger and 2nd battery installed with balancer.

Emma 3: Comes with 2 seats, single and longer seat for a passenger, Lock and rack with Top case.

Get the MotorGoat V3!

Idk if I would even put the Roll Road Emma in the same category.

@addertooth has a MotorGoat maybe he will chime in.

Ride1UP is going to be the best quality, for sure. Are you thinking about a dirt bike or eMoped?

Read up on your local laws before buying. You will likely find the MotorGoat and Emma are not legal, where the Revv1 is. (and is still fast enough) It's all about how they're rated. The ChiComm brands advertise higher power with no qualifications that it's peak power, so if you're investigated (the cop only has to look at the rating on the wheel hub) you're in violation. Whereas the Revv1 has a marked power in compliance with the law (750 W) but its peak is much higher.

I look forward to more eMopeds that actually have a VIN that can be registered properly as a moped.
Yeah, it's an extra expense, but very little and no extra licensing and peace of mind to go just about anywhere one wants.

I asked Roll Road's online customer service and they replied to me that the Emma belongs to Class 2, a 750w label on the frame, and shipped as 20mph. As long as you don't unolck the speed, it's legal to ride(35mph after unlocking the speed). Is that feasible?

 

[Smaug]

Yes, it ships as Class 2. When unlocked, is it Class 3? (pedal-assist (no throttle) up to 28 mph)

Or will it throttle up to its top speed? If so, it's not legal. You can do it anyway and take your chances, but you should at least know what you're doing and what the risk is. ;-)
