Power Sport Rides

Reviews

This product and the customer service at PetEgo are the worst I've experienced in a long time. The Universal Sport Bag is misrepresented on the Pet Ego website; there is no possible way a dog over 12 pounds can fit in the bag, yet it is marketed as having a capacity of 20 pounds. The zippers are inferior quality, and the straps are difficult to use. When I called their customer service, I was treated rudely. The owner of the company ignored my emails for over a month, and then sent me an email that was hostile. Save yourself money and a headache!

I am 5'2 and my dog is 3.5 lbs. As soon as I got this bag out of the box, she immediately crawled into it. She is now sleeping in it. It is small enough for me to maneuver and carry on a very busy NYC bus and fits comfortably underneath my arm and the straps are adjustable and I can wear it over my winter coat. My only regret is that I didn't get the USB plus with the pocket on the outside, I still can't decide if paying $30 for a pocket and doggie poop bag holder is worth the extra money. (As of 11/13 I bought the bag for $70, the USB Plus is about $100).

Ghostland Observatory is unique - something new under the sun? I get a kick out of their techno-retro-futuristic-totally fun sound.

Like a mix of early Rod Stewart and A.R.E. Weapons. Or early Rolling Stones and Death From Above. Part electronic, part dance, part rock, but all raw funk to dance to. Less monotonous and more hype than LCD Soundsystem, but more 4/4 dance groove than Mars Volta.

new music new voice new look exciting to see try it on good systym.......

Still a good cd, but only a few songs were great. The middle five tracks have me hooked but other that its just ok

The first 2 cd's are excellent. This one is just, ok. When you break it down, there are 10 tracks, 1 is an intro, 8 and 10 are repetitive instrumentals that just don't grab me. 7 is well, obnoxious and a pain to hear with headphones on but I'm sure it bangs in a club. I didn't think it really fit into the set as a whole. The rest of tracks are good, but really didn't hook me in like the previous 2 cd's. So basically, I've got 6 new tracks to dig. Maybe I need to play it more, but it's a let down for me. Heavy Heart and Dancing On My Grave are the only tracks I cared for and I thought the rest were boring and not as inventive as I expected after hearing the last discs. I stumbled onto this group just last week. I ordered all 3 at the same time! I'll give this one time to sink in. In my opinion, it sounds more like a debut than a third release.

An enticing but short-lived contact high of femmed-out electro-soul which bares light replay value save for liberal glow stick wavers.

try this newest mixture of exciting beats crazy vocal electronics but musical and unforgetable addictive yes.... upbeat yes....... dance at 2 am i got up to follow the dance unforgetable

This CD is creative and different. It has unique beats with an electronic /punk feel. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

Ghostland Observatory brings a mix of electronic indie rock, influenced by bands like Daft Punk, for one. After their exciting and promising debut album "Delete. Delete. I. Eat. Meat.", singer Aaron Behrens and producer/drummer Thomas Turner came back in 2007 with this second album. "Paparazzi Lightning" (10 tracks, 39 min.) builds on the sound of the first album, but with better results. The album consists mostly of shorter tracks, including the excellent radio track "Sad Sad City", and the album buzzes by in no time, but the "piece the resistance" is the last track of the album, the 9+ min. "Midnight Voyage", which brings it all home, an excellent stomp between the drum machines, synthesizers and guitar solos, you just never want the track to end! In early 2008, the band released a third album "Robotique Majestique", which was a little bit of a disappointment for me, as it is not quite on the same level as "Paparazzi Lightning". That said, if you haven't seen Ghostland Observatory in concert, you haven't experienced the band at its best. Live they are absolutely killer. I've seen them in concert several times, most recently last week at the Langerado Festival, and they again were absolutely fabulous, with "Mighnight Voyage" as the absolute highlight. Not to be missed if you have a chance to see them!

ghostland rocks my socks. It's like nothing I've ever heard before, and they have one hell of a stage presence. If I had three thumbs, I'd put them all up for this band.

I love all the new music today. Ghostland has tapped into a great 80s vibe, just like New Order of The Petshop boys. Its good stuff. I also enjoy Phoenix and Passion Pit, as well as Vampire Weekend. Good stuff.

this cd is great, its there best one in my opinion! The other 2 are good but i can listen to this one all the way through. this is one of the best and most orginal albums i've ever heard. this is really great band, the cd does not do it, you must see them live, its a experience. if you like good music you'll love this. they are kinda like(electronic chill dance rock) you will want to move

Ah! So good! Electronica-Funk-Pop! This is what VHS or Beta would sound like if they were less melodic... but I'm not saying that's a bad thing. This cd is a little rough starting up, but it gets better, and so do their other cds!

looking for something exciting raw new mixed cant quitplace it anywhere just you will know it when you hear it and see them perform no not perform feel it.

What would a robot making love to a tree sound like? Well, if you ask Aaron Behrens and Thomas Turner, they'll reply, "Ghostland Observatory!" Behrens is the front man, guitar player, vocalist, and dancer extrordinare. Turner is the keyboardist and drummer. He also produces. Together they create Ghostland Observatory. Another little `ol band from Texas. Correction! As it states on their web site, "Ghostland Observatory is not a band, but an agreement between two friends to create something that not only heals their beat-driven hearts, but pleases their rock `n roll souls." Amen to that! And can I have a Hallelujah?! On their MySpace page they say the were influenced by such greats as Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, David Bowie, The Doors, anyone with balls! All of the previously named artists had that in common. Let's take Johnny Cash for instance. Did anyone ever see him doing a Trent Reznor song? Not only did he do that, He did it better than anyone has. If you can listen to him sing `Hurt' with out crying, well, your dead already, so forget it! Ballsy! That's how their label, Trashy Moped Recordings, refers to it. And that's what Ghostland Observatory is. I was going to write about their album `Delete Delete-I Eat Meat' , but have decided to just write about this band. I love their sound, and if you could imagine a robot making love to a tree... Well I can hear that in their music. Mechanical, yet earthy. The first time I ever saw or even heard of these guys was on Austin City Limits. They had me at the first note almost. Watching Behrens perform was reminiscent of Jim Morrison or Mick Jagger yet his gyrations were his own. Those gyrations add to the enjoyment of hearing them. His dancing about the stage only adds an energy to the performance and makes it all their own. Right now I'm listening to 'Heavy Heart' from their latest album, 'Robotique Majestique'. It sounds like a what might happen if Prince were to mate with Led Zeppelin and Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. Rock n' Roll with a lot of soul! You have the earthy voice for Behrens complimented by the very methodical and mechanical sound of Turner's synthesizer. Truly amazing! Their music is difficult to categorize, but if I had to label it I'd call it `funky techno rock'. Sometimes they'll have a very definite techno side, sometimes it will be straight up R & B. Most often, however , their music will be a combination of both. Behrens has one of those voices that will be memorable for decades to come. I'm sure a major label will pick them up at some point. That will be great for this duo. Hopefully it will be great for the fans. It will be, so long as they don't get overly produced. Over production seems to occur far to often when a band goes to a major label. The duo has released 3 albums since 2004. `Delete Delete-I Eat Meat', the first, was released in 2005. It was followed by `Paparazzi Lightning' released in 2006. Their latest release is the fore mentioned `Robotique Majestique' released in March of this year. All were released on Turner's label Trashy Moped Recordings (trasymoped.com).

I bought this cord to replace one that my boys ruined for their Razor Scooter. It does exactly what it is suppose to do.

This is the first time that I have tried this product and also the first time that I have ordered From Amazon.com,I rate my order five stars and could go even higher, The order works very well.

i ordered this new charger for my daughters razor imod scooter, and was not disappointed. i recieved it quickly and it was the exact replacement for the old one. now my daughter is back up and zipping around with a big smile. excellent service and product description to remove worries about wrong type.

It did what it was supposed to do. shipping was handled quickly, no troubles or concerns, would buy from again.

I purchased this item to replace the original charger that shorted out on my son's Razor Scooter E100. This has worked perfectly since the time of purchase. It is a perfect match for the scooter outlet, it charges up efficiently and quickly, and maintains the charge for a significant amount of time. It also has a green/red LED on it to let you know when it charging and when it is fully charged.

I have ridden this extreme e-bike for 2 years everyday. I love it. It is made in China. It is not perfect, but I have not had much problem with it. I had a flat tire on the back, but I fixed it with never leak or fix-a-flat. I never let the charge get totally dead, so it has always charged. The instructions are about useless, but I did manage to put the rest together by myself and I was a 53 year old 5' tall woman with determination. I really like the storage in the seat and trunk, because I even rode it in the winter(I could not ride it on ice, that would be stupid.) I could load $200.00 worth of groceries on it using recycle bags sat in front of me.

we owned an xb-500 for two years. While I loved the power, style and range of it, we had many problems. We had three flats which we had to pay a scooter shop to repair at $50 each. This shop said that a cable ran too close the wheel on the front tire and that it was dangerous to drive. The headlights quit working after a month. I was able fix them by reconnecting a wire, but I had to pull off the dash cover. Then the charger quit working after about 10 months. I'm not sure why, but the blinkers never worked. Please, consider the cost and how you will maintain this bike if you buy one.

I researched electric bikes for some time before I settled on this one. After some shipping delays, it arrived a couple days ago. It comes in a huge box, which weighs 76K--167 pounds. Once inside, it's bolted to a pretty dirty steel cage, so be prepared to get smelly and dirty! The front axle bolt is threaded through the cage, it takes some time and patience to work that out. The instructions are close to useless, but it's pretty obvious where most of the stuff is supposed to go. Just be patient! And don't be afraid of getting dirty. I'm 5', about 110, and was able to wrestle it around, so I would think most people shouldn't have a problem. I put it together, charged it up, turned it on. I forgot that electric bikes don't make a starting noise, and I hit the throttle and just about mowed down my dining room table. So watch for the quiet operation! ;) The horn on the other hand is pretty loud and harsh--everyone's going to know you're coming. The lighting is fantastic, lights are big and bright, huge brake lights, great front and back turning signals. It has high beams as well. I haven't had a chance to really test it out on distances, I've been getting used to it--it does take off pretty fast, so practice somewhere where you won't run into things--like NOT the dining room! ;) I will post more as I learn more. So far, 100% great, neighbors are envious, co-workers want one. **NOTE: the speedometer display is in kilometers per hour. 32.2 KPH=20 MPH. So, if you are trying to comply with federal regualtions, that's where it should be. UPDATE: Two weeks later I am still waiting on my warranty replacement charger from XTreme Scooters. I did buy another @www.monsterscooterparts.com. They've got great prices and great service. Their charger is better and quieter as well. I have run the bike through pouring Houston rain and been fine. I weigh around 115 lbs and the bike gets up to a nice steady 42KMH which translates to just over 26 MPH. I can run it there for 15-17 miles. After it hits the yellow bar, it drops down pretty quickly. I take the battery out of the bike and charge it that way, since I live in an upstairs condo and this bike is way too heavy to cart up the stairs. Also, there is no way this is 'foldable' or whatever it it says on this website. It's heavy and bulky, you'd need a couple people and a truck to get it around. All in all this is a great product, I'm having a ton of fun and still getting compliments and questions everywhere I go. I usually have a big grin stuck on my face when I'm riding. ;)

I am about 5'11 230 pounds, and had some qualms about the potential power in these bikes. I happened to find one that was for sale "Like new/barely used" locally for much less than a new one cost, and jumped on it. I am so happy that I did. The motor on the bike is easily able to propel me up to its top speed of 20 mph. Granted, with my extra weight (It uses 170 lb rider as its guideline) I lose a few miles on the charge, but thats ok. 2 things to note. 1) The speedometer on mine was saying I was going 40. I had someone pace me and found that it was displaying roughly double the actual speed, so 40=20. 2) THIS IS SO MUCH FUN!

I will write another review after appx 3-4 months of use. For me, however, this is a perfect. I am a 64 year old man with serious heart disease. I need regular exercise, but have to stop if I feel my heart stressing too much. The X-Treme Electric Bicycle XB-502 allows me that flexibility. I can pedal or turn on the electric drive and cruise. A perfect fit also was the low price which allowed me to buy it for cash. Also perfect is I need no drivers license, do not have to register it, or insure it. I can ride it on bicycle paths just like a regular bike, or on the street where allowed.

We order this scooter in dec.2009 and we received it within 5 days(quicker than expected). Packaging was perfect and everything was inside it. The only problem (and we expected to have at least one problem according to other customers reviews) was that after second time out and not more than 6 miles total, it died on us. So we decided to contact the company that deals with these scooters and email them our concern.To make the story shorter, we exchanged several emails (the only time we had to wait for an answer was because it was a weekend) and checked everything we could check on the scooter. It was quite curteous in the exchange of emails and within a week we had the problem part in our hands. Either we are lucky or this company improved its customer relationship. Anyway, it was quite easy to replace the part and everything function fine since. We enjoy it, it does what is supposed to do and it's fun. Easy to transport in a car. We added lights for safety and an old style horn and have a ball being kids again (we are in our 50's & 60's).We can use it either sitting or standing for those with balance.

I purchased this scooter as an upgrade from a Razor E300. I was impressed with the suspension system, but thats where it ended. After several modifications I can now say that I thoroughly enjoy and rely daily on this scooter. Some of the components on this scooter are so inadequate that they should never have been installed in the first place. First of all the drive wheel does NOT have a fly wheel clutch, so when you release the throttle instead of coasting you immediately and abruptly begin to slow down. As a result you use more battery power and your charge does not last as long. Secondly, the brakes on this scooter while looking impressive are inadequate. Thirdly, the recharging jack and recharger are very tempermental. If you intend to buy this scooter here are the steps you can take to improve its functionality and your enjoyment. All of the parts added and changed were from a Razor E300. First remove the rear tire, chain and brake assembly from the Razor (and get 5/16th flat washers). Then (for ease of installation remove the plastic cover) from the Xtreme scooter remove the wheel, chain, and brake. The brake cable can be installed into the brake from the razor, use the washers to center the wheel on the axle and ensure that the chain is perfectly straight from the motor to the gears. You must drill a hole through the frame of the Xtreme scooter through to the brake housing hole from the Razor. A 1/4 stove bolt, lock washer, 1/4 flat washers and nylon lock nut work perfectly. The front brake on the Xtreme can be removed it's NOT needed. Remember to remove the brake cable and hand control as well. The charger plug and charging jack for the Xtreme are crap as well. The Jack from the Razor is easily installed into the body of the Xtreme just below the existing jack, just drill a new hole and solder the connections. All I did for the plug was cut the old plug off the razor charger and solder it onto the Xtreme chargers cord. These are the upgrades that mostly increased the usability of this scooter. I Have also added wheel covers front and aft to eliminate tire spray. The kickstand will probably break on you as it did for me but that is not a concern for me. One last thing the throttle broke after about two months and I installed a half grip throttle that I ordered. With the half grip I was able to use the old grip from the Razor that holds the valve extender inflation tool. If you choose to buy this scooter I'd say it's a good choice but be prepared to spend a bit more making it perfect. I can send pics of the upgrades to you just let me know. I hope this has been helpful Cris cnastasiataoldotcom

Great way to get around for a mildly handicapped individual. Should be able to purchase under medicare with the proper paper work. One fault I found, is the tire valve stem is not long enough to adjust tire air pressure. The valve extension supplied, is not usable to adjust tire air pressure. Battery compartment is too tight. Extremely difficult to reinstall the batteries in the enclosed bag within the compartment. The electronics of the scooter should be enclosed in a water proof compartment. Wish the scooter had a longer run time. Other than the minor faults I listed, I really like this scooter. The inital concept is for a younger user. I am a retired person with a mild handicapp. I guess with time comes improvement. Oh yeah!! Maybe they can include a travel basket with the scooter

The description of this item states that shipping is included but then when you place it in your basket a shipping charge of about $40 is added to the price.

I bought it on mid September 2008 from NeoScooter as a project to commute from work and home to the train station, both distances are about a mile and also to ride it to go to local stores for lunch, an average of 8 miles round trip. It rides well and holds the charge, you can go up the hills ( not to steep ) as advertised but at slower pace. I would give it 5 * but the quality is not there yet ( Chinese product ), some of the wiring could be pinched under the battery pack, the rest of the wiring is bunched and can also be cut between the deck and the frame when closing the battery compartment. Also to hold the deck in place the manufacture uses Velcro, and the warranty is only 30 days. This is a bad thing turn into a good thing, it is heavy ( 75 lb.) what makes it stable when riding over gravel roads. But not to good when you have to lift it to get on the train using the steps. Is a good product overall for the price. I will update review in 2 months. Green commuter

Smaller than I expected-just about the dimensions of my netbook but deeper so there's a bit of room left for a thinnish book. I bought it to carry my netbook and as carryon, so the smaller the better. Almost too small, but I think it will be perfect if I'm careful. Has a hidden watter bottle strap on one side and a variety of zippered pockets and pen&electronic pockets on the inside. Love the color, style, and the material is very sturdy and padded in case it's dropped. Strap easily adjusts. Super mod style.

I bought this bag to carry camera equip. and misc. items during a trip to Paris. It's great because it is just large enough and has many compartments, but is not too heavy/large to look like a backpack. Much more fashionable (espec. for French standards)and durable. Of course, it's not a designer bag.
