SOUTH PASADENA, CA--(Marketwire - November 27, 2009) - UrbanScooters.com is excited to announce
the addition of the all new, eco-friendly,
Go-Ped
Pro-Ped Propane Powered Scooter to its line up. The Pro-Ped is the only
stand-up gas scooter green enough to pass California's strict emissions
laws. While it's arguably as green as comparable
electric scooters, the Pro-Ped is only a fraction of the
cost and weight. This gas scooter is built for commuters and thrill-seekers
who want to maximize their savings on clean, green personal transportation.
The
Go-Ped GSR Pro-Ped is solidly built, ultra-reliable, quiet, efficient
and easy to maintain. The aircraft quality, heavy duty steel frame carries
up to 400 lbs. The ride is steady, smooth and stable. The Go-Ped Pro-Ped's
LEHR engine won Popular Mechanics 2009 "10 Most Brilliant Products
Breakthrough Award." It produces 97% less particulates, and 96% less
carcinogens than traditional four-stroke gas scooter engines. The propane
canisters are found at local hardware and camping stores and installing
them is beyond simple. You just "Twist and Go!"
We've got to hand it to US based Patmont Motor Werks, aka Go-Ped. They
launched the gas and electric scooter craze 20 years ago and continue to
deliver the highest quality, most innovative scooting machines on the
market. Go-Ped has once again raised the bar with the release of the Go-Ped
