Advanced features
on Veloteq 2007 and 2008 models add a whole new dimension to electric bicycles as an
alternative means of low-cost, pollution-free local transportation....
We are ushering in our new model year with a host of the latest technology
upgrades that are guaranteed to insure you a smoother and safer ride.
Drawing on years of experience with Honda, our engineers have
incorporated features normally found only only very high end motorcycles.
The BLDC (brushless dc motor) incorporates a high performance rare earth
neodymium/boron (NIB)) permanent magnet, outer-rotor direct drive
wheel, and a automatic transmission featuring efficiency, energy economy, long
life, and no maintenance noise-free operation. Boron, a
non-conductor, replaces iron (ferrite) material which is a good
conductor of heat, reducing motor overheating.
The central controller performs the functions of electric motor drive,
battery under-voltage protection, cross current protection and speed
limiting, automatic braking power kill, power storage display, speed
governor and transmission control. The system is integrated with the
gearless accelerator to regulate speed.
These fully integrated functions insure safe and reliable operation
under all road conditions. All power systems are protected by a
government certified and CE Approved circuit breaker. Veloteq
ebikes do not not rely on fuses for protection.
Total Power System Design
Veloteq electric bicycles are designed specifically
for the North American market, unlike other models available that are
merely improvisations on old, low power designs intended for use on
other countries. They speak quality throughout, what you
expect and deserve from vehicles intended for on road use.

We use the most recently designed, very
high efficiency brushless DC motors constructed of the
highest quality materials that are currently available.
The motor is the one of the most
important components our power and electrical systems.
Combined with our power supply which is rated for continuous
use for two years or more with four 20Ah batteries and high power
handling controller it is optimized to deliver the maximum
speed allowed by law in the US and Canada enabling greater
grade climbing ability and an outstanding travel range of
over 50 miles (80 kms).
The combination of the power supply,
controller and motor is the key to insuring that you will
receive maximum performance under all road conditions and
long life and reliability of the power system.
16-3.0 wide-tires mounted on polished alloy
wheels offer better traction and smoother, better controlled
turning. These are the same outer diameter as those
used on 18" electric bicycle wheels but give better road
performance. |
Advanced Suspension Systems

A-arm suspension systems are used on the front end, as opposed to the commonly
seen telescoping suspension. This permits the front wheel to rock
in response to rough roads and affords greater mobility while turning or
swerving. Instead of putting all of the stress on the suspension
arm and the frame it brings the entire front end into play insuring a
safer ride. This design in usually seen only on high-end
motorcycles. The Cougar XR7 uses hydraulic reverse telescoping
front suspension which reduces shock and frame stress by absorbing it at
the wheel base, not the top of the suspension arm. The rear suspension arm is vertically
oriented, not raked backwards from the frame. The suspension arm
absorbs the weight of the ebike and rider downwards instead of at an
angle, cushioning the ride and relieving stress on both the arm and
ebike frame. A line between the angle formed by a line from the
upper arm attachment to the ground and the upper arm attachment angle to
the ground is called the "trail". The shorter the distance
is, the less the stress on both the suspension arm and the frame,
resulting in a smoother, better controlled ride. Try a simple experiment.
With a hand held level in front of you poke straight up to the palm of
your hand. Then poke the same spot at a 45o
angle. Repeat this poking from smaller angles. You will feel
very little stress when you poke straight up. When you poke at an
angle you will feel great stress on the finger joints which passes to
the wrist and further up the arm. This is how the telescoping
suspension works.
Brake System
 |
Veloteq 2007 ebikes use high
quality cushioned motorcycle drum brakes to guarantee
smooth and quick braking under all weather conditions.
They will bring your ebike to a stop within eight feet
at the maximum permitted speed of 20 mph (32 kmh).
They exceed all requirements for bicycle brake systems
under CPSC regulations and also those of the Canada
Motor Vehicle Safety Act for motorcycles.
It is not always necessary to use the brakes to reduce
speed, releasing the cruise control if it is engaged or
if not simply releasing the throttle will automatically
reduce speed. While coasting or braking power is
generated which flows back into the power supply to
increase range or compensate for power used by
electrical accessories. |
Frame and Fairings
 |
Veloteq ebike fairings (body
parts) have a high-gloss, scratch-resistant enamel finish that
requires little maintenance other then the care you
choose to
give them to keep them shining. They are securely
fastened to the frame underneath to prevent breakage
when you encounter bumps or a rocky road. Fairings
are motorcycle grade.
The welded steel frame is made to
motorcycle standards. It is rust-treated to
deliver a lifetime of use and carries a 5-Year Warranty.
Side view mirrors have long arms and
are fully adjustable to permit you to see the road
behind you, not just yourself. You can aim them in
or aim them out to suit your height or where you prefer
to sit. |
Instrument Panel & Cruise Control
|
 |
The instrument panels on Veloteq
2007 models feature a large, backlighted display for
nighttime operation, a speedometer calibrated in miles
per hour and kilometers per hour, a 5 digit odometer, turn signal and headlight indicators,
and a power supply level indicator. The
headlights and taillight turn on automatically when the
power key is in the ON position. Ample power is
provided by the large power system and dynamic power
regeneration. Cruise control is fully
automatic. Maintaining the throttle position for 6
seconds activates the cruise control for the speed
selected. It is automatically deactivated by a
momentary depression of either the front or rear brake
handle. You do not have to maintain hand and wrist
pressure to travel at your desired speed. |
Lighting Systems
|
 |
Large rear tail lights, brake lights
and turn signals insure that will always be seen from
behind and to the sides while riding at night.
Wheel reflectors together with a front end reflector and
large bright headlights make you visible from all
around. |
Total Security
Veloteq 2007-2008 models incorporate a two-tiered
system for protection against theft or tampering with your ebike.
Some people may want to steal it and you can see why. All Veloteq
ebikes have a locking steering column and an ear piercing alarm
system to ward off theft.
