Brand new Pcoket Bikes for $399

I think they might be worth it. They are not name brand Polini or nothing but they have disk brakes, 2 stroke motor etc...

Who's up for one?

That would be pretty pimp to stroll around on instead of pedaling

when I was your age I bought a scooter from a meth fiend for $83 which was all my chsitmas money. He had the title in his name as I have seen him ride it years back when he wasn't a meth fiend. This guy was like 28 and i was 14. I bought it, got it running and mobbed. It was so ****** cool. I would cruise around. Instead of ""ill be there in 20 minutes" I was there in 5. Mobbin it. I would even have to tow my firneds on their skateboards and ****. They get tired and my little rack in the back had rope tied to it so I can mobb them around. It was great until I was flooring it hauling *** at 30mph and and a cop got me doing a 30 in a 25, I had no license and got it towed. And I never saw it again.

their add says 37 out the box with a 37 lb rider. I am 266lbs and doubt that that little thing will take me anywhere near the realms of 40mph....

Re: Brand new Pcoket Bikes for $399

It said 37 MPH with a 150 lb rider. I'm 160... so I'm sure I can top 30+.

Re: Brand new Pcoket Bikes for $399

They also offer a 49CC version Check out the video they have up. It shows the 47CC version whippin its ***. Weird but damn it looks like the dude is picking up a nice amount of speed.

Re: Brand new Pcoket Bikes for $399

Heres what mine looks like.. bought 6 of them and sold all of them within the week. I love it, I ride it all over the place. They do get up and go pretty good. You have to watch out for any rough patches in the road though, not the most comfy ride.
