I took it for an extended ride today (with helmet)
I was able to go from my house down to the boat, a distance of 2.2 miles in 12 minutes, 22 seconds or 10.5 mph. In the car with traffic it takes longer, plus finding a parking space can take that long!
Then up to the store 1.75 miles uphill in about 11 minutes for 9.8 mph
and finally home on the third leg of a triangle for 2.30 miles in about 14 minutes or 10 mph (including up/down and stoplights)
So this is 6.25 miles going about 3-4 times faster than you could walk, and about the same time as driving the car.
Of course that's in reasonable (long sleeve) weather and moderate traffic using bike lanes and sidewalks.
Cheers,

URB-E gets me from A to B
Hi folks, I am reporting today on the latest addition to our stable of "Mobility Devices", using the politically-correct term for things that get us from A to B faster than walking. I already have 8 cars and 4 bicycles, but then mobility devices are like ...
Thanks for this cool report!
The question is how many URB Es will end up in your stable?
Awesome report....
Your pics show it to be a well built and stirdy bit of kit and given the range and details is well worth the price. So the trolley actually attaches to the scooter....that's brilliant. It must have quite a torque to the motor to pull both the rider and a ...
I don't think it is approved to carry passengers
but "rumor has it" that light-weight women can safely be carried in the trailer, if it's padded with a beach blanket
Thanks for the great review Mike!
My wife and I have been looking at an Urb E, so hopefully we'll get one as well. Will need to visit their factory in Pasadena in the near future! Cheers, AT
Interesting....
mobility device . Definitely wouldn't mind having a go on one! Award-worthy film-making . Cheers, Filip
Go Evan!
I met Evan Saunders during August of this year as well. Great kid, very positive, very upbeat. Glad you're enjoying your Urb-E! Be safe out there!

Boat!?!?!
Cars, boat, Urb-E. That's a lot of methods of transportation! Helmet's a nice touch!
