ESR750 Li-Ion

Depending in model, the on board Li-Ion battery power consist of 2, 3, or 4ea 25.9V Li-ion polymer battery packs wired in series, one or two packs per side within the aluminum battery pan.

As the battery packs take up less room than the previous SLA (sealed lead acid) batteries in the ESRex and Hoverboard, further weight and deck thickness is also reduced to create the sleekest, lowest standing height, lightest, highest range electric portable transportation devices in the world.

New Improvements for 2008!

After several years of very successful service the "Electric Speed Racer" ESR 750 Go-Ped product line has been greatly improved for 2008.


Along with an innovative new self adjusting chain tensioner, the heart of the 2008 improvements are from a new, and much more efficient motor.


The new ESR motor has the following enhancements;

• Significantly thicker and much more powerful Rare Earth magnets.
  
• Brushes and heat producing components are now better located within the new and better heat transferring aluminum "E Head".
  
• All precision sealed ball bearings at each end of the motor shaft replacing previous brass bushings.
  
• Commutator/brush drag cut in half.
  
• Larger armature copper wire diameter for reduced resistance and unwanted heat.
  
• Higher motor RPM operation to improve efficiency.

The result is a significantly lower operating temperature resulting in significant ESR range and reliability and brush life increases.


The new ESR750H and ESR750EX come now equipped with a new 11/80 sprocket ratio and 108 chain length to take optimum advantage of the new motor for the world's best speed, range and hill climbing ability versus electric vehicle weight.

The most innovative and highest quality features and components abound in the ESR750, making it the most cutting edge, reliable and versatile electric scooter in the industry. It is the Absolute combination of True Style and Pure Freedom.

Auto-adjusting Chain Tensioner – This important improvement is based on it's earlier manual adjusting high abrasion resistant predecessor which uses the same mounting position. It now incorporates a longer and spring loaded slot with automatically consistent, yet gentle slack elimination which effortlessly stop chain derailments. The auto adjusting chain adjuster now accommodates greater chain "slactitudes" found with various sprocket combinations and changing chain conditions.  This baby is also very easy to install.

Electric Motor - After over a year of research for the most powerful and reliable engine, the ESR provides for unmatched power and offers no compromises on performance. It is equipped with a robust and well proven DC brush type motor with “Electro Head” finned heat sink that is capable of producing over 1HP in continuous operation and reaching top speed of over 20mph, while offering thrilling acceleration. The high output makes it the most unique scooter able to tackle steep hills with ease.

* Speed and range claims are made with the following assumptions: 160 lb rider, smooth riding surface, flat ground, no wind, proper tire inflation and chain adjustment

Electronic Controller – We would have to kill you if we told you too much, but what we can reveal is that the ESR 750 electronic power controller is a sophisticated and proprietary pulse width modulated design. The ESR750 is the only electric scooter of its kind equipped with an advanced computerized variable speed and programmable controller. With a wide variety of EPROM (Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory) programmable functions, it gives users the freedom to not only do on board diagnostics but also customize performance.

Dual Performance Modes - The operator can chose the "Econo" or "Turbo" performance mode on the throttle control to either go "twice as far, half as fast", or "twice as fast, half as far", providing users with absolute control over their choice of speed and range. Economy has up to a 8+ mile range while Turbo Mode gets 5 miles.

Drive Train - Power to the rear wheel is through a #25 chain with tension maintained by a simple manual chain adjuster. The standard final drive front/rear sprocket ratio is 11/80 and allows for free wheeling and modifications to many available ratio combinations.

Chassis and Frame - The patented single tube frame/chassis is based on the cantilevered aircraft grade chromoly carbon steel frame so well proven by the lightest and highest performing racing Go-Peds. This oversized Go-Ped® renowned quality frame also incorporates the motor and simultaneously serves as a heat sink to help dissipate the heat generated by the motor, which offers top reliability and range design benefit.

Steering Fork - Its front fork, also made of aircraft grade Chromoly Carbon steel, is the well proven and patented cantilevered design for simplicity, low weight and ease of maintenance. To the fork is mounted the Brand New and Ultra Powerful “Mad Dog” disc brake caliper, which is an international standard mountain bike style, with tempered stainless steel “wave” disc rotor, provides for exceptional braking performance, control and safety.

Wheels - The polished wheels are made of strong, but very light weight cast Magnesium alloy, and have very low rolling resistance "TT" style treaded pneumatic tires, 10 inches in diameter, which contributes to the most comfortable ride.

Platform - Deck - The standing platform or "deck" made of beautiful light weight Latvian Birch plywood from Lithuania combines the best attributes of a low deck height and excellent ground clearance of any electric powered scooter available. This creates the friendliest, and easiest to use ergonomic "magic carpet" possible. The patented and gracefully formed low profile aluminum battery pan below the platform serves as an ingenious mount and provides for excellent protection of the batteries, electronics and wiring. The pan/deck electronics battery pack is weather resistant and factory sealed. It can very easily be removed and replaced from the frame with four mount screws on the top of the deck and by disconnecting the electronic control quick-connects, and motor power leads.

RearFender - The rear wheel, chain drive system and rider are protected by a stylish single piece rear fender made from injection molded and ultra resistant polypropylene thermoplastic. Its beautiful, well thought out design gives it a customized and unique motorcycle look.

Handlebars and Controls - The handlebar control system is of 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum alloy and is classic Go-Ped®, down to the elegantly simple, convenient and highly imitated yet never surpassed folding spring loaded locking sleeve The brake lever and two position power ON/OFF button is ergonomically designed and easily accessible on the left handle grip. A smooth variable speed thumb throttle with Econo/Turbo selector and three LED battery condition fuel gauge like "Flux Capacitor" on the right grip allow users easy control of their ESR 750 and the ability to know at all times the power level in the batteries.
