Go Time Buzz on Electric Bikes and Scooters


Welcome to the first of many posts on our blog that is dedicated to informing and educating people on Electric Bikes and Scooters here in Victoria, BC Canada.

Thinking of purchasing an electric scooter or electric bicycle? Hopefully these posts will help you cut through all of the misinformation out there and assist you in making an informed purchasing decision.

There is a lot of information out there and it can be daunting to those people considering electric scooters or bikes as an affordable and sustainable form of transportation. The information out there is skewed by the manufacturers and marketing strategies they concoct.

We at Team Go Time believe in telling it like it is (the actual truth) to our customers as that is how we want to be treated when we are the customer at other establishments and in general as decent human beings.
We trust that happy customers will spread the word that we truly do want to please our customers.

F.A.Q #1
Electric scooter or electric bicycle?
I'm looking at purchasing an electric scooter or electric bicycle and I am not sure what would be best for me. What are factors to consider?

This is a personal choice but we have found that people who have been using their bicycle but are looking for some assistance up hills and on the way home from a hard days work are usually best suited for an electric bicycle.


People that haven't touched their bicycle for a long while or don't own one at all usually tend to be suited for an electric scooter. Electric scooters have a super comfy seat, require minimal maintenance and are great for A to B commuters and people that "just want to get there".
