Surly Pugsley with BionX motor--quite a ride!
Installing a 350 watt BionX motor system on a Surly fatbike is probably the coolest project we've gotten to do here at NYCeWheels, and our customers seem to agree, given the amount of enthusiasm we've gotten in response to these electrified beasts.
I couldn't help taking one out for a spin myself, and I have to say--the BionX Pugsleys really live up to their hype. Learn more by checking out my review of the Surly Pugsley with BionX motor.

A BionX Guide for the Rest of Us
BionX electric bike conversion kits are super handy, amazing pieces of technology, capable of giving an electric boost to almost any bicycle!
However, because they are based on fairly complicated (to we mere non-tech-savvy mortals) technology, sometimes bikers who could really benefit from a BionX system are too intimidated to go for it. That's why we wrote this handy BionX tech specs guide in plain English, for folks without degrees in electrical engineering!

Tern Joe P24: folding versatility
The Joe P24 full sized folding bike is one of our many new folding bikes from Tern. The Joe P24 is an incredibly versatile bike, from its disc brakes and wide tires giving it stability and a solid feel, to its comprehensive 24 speed drive train that offers the ability to ride over all kinds of urban terrain.
