LAfree Sport
LAfree Sport by Giant Bicycle Company
This accomplished, reliable model has been discontinued. Most parts are standard bicycle ones and the two 12V/12AH Sealed Lead Acid batteries are available from battery dealers 'anywhere'. The early model came with the charger and its pullout cord built into the battery case. The later model uses a separate charger, which is available as a spare part.

The top-rated* LAfree, designed from the ground up, hybrid electric bike incorporates a torque + speed sensing, pedal-activated system, a VPC (variable power control) twist grip, an aluminum frame, front shocks, and a very supportive, upright riding position. The 400W continuous / 1,000W peak rated motor is placed in the bottom bracket and drives through 7 speeds. Allowing the motor to drive through multiple gears provides unequaled efficiency, leverage (for serious hill climbing), and motor protection.
