The Goped ESR-750(EX) is one of the best constructed scooters on the market at any price. There is little chance of anything falling off or getting loose. The ESR-750 requires the front brake be attached by the customer. This was such an easy process that even I did it easily and quickly.

Every ESR-750 is tested by QA before leaving the factory here in the good old USA.

The ESR-750(EX) has a single front disc brake that has excellent stopping power for panics stops or safe descents down steep hills. The brake is effective, but not so harsh as to throw one over the steering column.

The ESR-750 has an on/off switch (Kill switch) on the handle bar.

The ESR-750(EX) has no built-in lighting or horn, but is compatible with most bicycle accessories.

When the concept of the PEV (Personal Electric Vehicle) first surface, the ESR-750 is what I envisioned it to be. It is portable enough to be used in conjunction with rail type mass transit. It can be kept in a closet, yet has 20 mph speed, worries not about hilly terrain and has a safe 5 miles round trip range and twice that if one can charge at destination before returning.

The ESR-750 is suitable for almost any short range transport needs.

The ESR-750 sells on the net for around $799. people will raise an eyebrow because of the size of the ESR-750. For some reason Americans seem to think bigger is better. The more you spend the bigger the scooter should be.

The ESR-750 competes with 'premium', larger size scooter very well on speed, hill climbing ability and it doesn't have the huge batteries of the premium but it does have good range. Since it costs $300-$400 less than the premiums I think it is a very good deal.
