Thanks for stopping by EZgo-Now.com. It took nearly two years of trial and error to turn my dreams of building an on-line business doing something I truly love into a reality. I’m happy to say EZgo-Now.com a cycling blog dedicated to PA (power assisted) bicycles is the result of that. On the down side it is taking longer than I had hopped to turn this into the full featured one stop shop for electric bicycle information I have planned on.

Knowing the limits of my resources I decided early on my primary focus would be electric bike conversion kits, installations, batteries and the products and technology that supports those items. Unfortunately even that required significantly more time and money than I had. Since money is the finite resource in this formula time became the only variable I had some control over. That said, I’m working as fast I can.

I spent much of my summer trying to find a better location for my bike shop. My current shop is getting very crowded and worse than that it is to far off the beaten path for any type of retail business. After a few failed attempts I decided to work with what I had for now and re-focus those energies on getting EZgo-Now up to speed and to give it a bit more of a retail flavor. Please browse our side bar on your right to see some of our new addtions.

My goals however have not changed. I want to help our readers learn about, and find the products they want for their PA (power assist) bicycling journeys. I want them to find enjoyment in and get satisfaction from this new form of cycling. If anything I have re-committed myself to bringing you accurate and timely information, honest reviews, quality products and links to top notch cycling websites and blogs. In short I want to keep you as motivated and excited as I am about PA biking. In my personal journey over the past two years I have seen a lot of change in electric bicycle technology and in the market place. Much of it is good some of it is not.

On the good side is e-bike motor technology and quality has improved considerably. The kits themselves are better assembled using higher quality components with new and useful features. The Chinese e-bike market and supply chain has become more accessible to the west allowing easier and more cost effective importation of products from the higher quality Chinese manufacturers in the east. One of the more notable improvements is in the advancement of battery technology and the subsequent reduction in cost. (They are still very expensive) Specifically Lithium Ion, LiMnNi and LiFePO4 batteries. The down side is every Tom, Dick & Harry with a website is now selling e-bikes, motorized bike kits and cheap batteries complete with false claims and bad information. There are hundreds if not thousands of these sites and although you don’t have to visit them all you still have to sort through them. Most of them are junk websites or blog pages with re-spun technical data, marketing material and re-copied copies of copied reviews from Best Buy, Target, Nextag, Amazon, etc. They are a huge waste of time and do nothing but confuse those of us looking for accurate information on this rapidly evolving and ever expanding market. I will continue to do my best to sort this mis-information out and get you back on the right track.

Please bookmark EZgo-Now.com and stop in when ever your looking for information or products on this really neat form of transportation. I personally guarantee to never steer you in the wrong direction or to put profits in front of customer service.
