FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Nov. 14, 2017 — Pedego® Electric Bikes today announced the opening of Pedego San Diego. Located on the ground floor of the elegant new BRIC center on San Diego Bay, the new store offers Pedego’s 12 stylish models of powerful electric bikes that enable riders to enjoy cruising all over town with ease. Pedego Electric Bikes is the Number 1 electric bike brand in the United States. Pedego San Diego originally opened as a pop-up store in July 2017 and was Pedego’s 98thstore worldwide.

Pedego San Diego offers free test rides of Pedego electric bikes as well as rentals, sales and service. From the store’s location in the elegant BRIC complex, an exciting lifestyle destination in the heart of Downtown San Diego, riders can easily cruise to the city’s great landmarks, including the Gaslamp Quarter, Petco Park, Balboa Park and museums, Old Town and Harbor and Shelter Islands.

The store sells all 12 models of Pedego’s popular electric bikes. Pedego bikes have 500-watt hub motors that help riders cruise distances of 20 to 60 miles without getting tired and sweaty. The twist-and-go throttle gives riders instant manual control over their speeds while Pedal Assist automatically adds power to their pedaling. Riders love Pedego’s California-style cruisers, including the Pedego Platinum Interceptor, a fully loaded cruiser bike with a 48-volt battery that propels riders with extra power; the Pedego Interceptor, which boasts the same powerful 48-volt battery; and Pedego’s Comfort Cruiser, which is powered by a 36-volt battery for gentle help with hills.
