FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., May 29, 2019 — Pedego® Electric Bikes today announced its new Boomerang Plus ultra-accessibility electric bike in a 24-inch size for people under 5’4″ in height. The new Boomerang Plus features an extra-low step-thru frame just nine inches off the ground, making it easy for riders to get on and ride. Now available at 120 Pedego stores in the United States and select Pedego stores worldwide, it is retail priced from $3,295.

Boomerang Low Step Electric Bike

The Pedego Boomerang ultra-accessibility electric cruiser bike is now available in a 24-inch size for riders under 5’4″ tall.

For those who need an accessibility bike due to knee or hip problems, this ultra-low step-thru electric bike makes it easy for riders to sit down on the saddle and gently lift their legs onto the pedals.

Pedal or not, the Boomerang Plus goes up to 20 MPH and has a range of up to 60 miles on a single battery charge. Electric assistance helps the rider ride longer, farther and faster than they could on a traditional pedal bike. Boomerang Plus features include:

  • A powerful, whisper-quiet, 500-watt motor that delivers best-in-class acceleration and hill climbing
  • A state-of-the-art 48-volt, 10 AH battery that uses the same advanced lithium-ion cells as an electric car (optional 15AH battery) and only uses about 10 cents worth of electricity per charge
  • A twist-and-go throttle for instant speed
  • Pedego’s PedalSense™ that provides five levels of electric assistance as riders pedal
  • LCD display with USB charger
  • Smart Bike Technology including a Bluetooth-connected smartphone app
  • Top-of-the-line components including Shimano seven-speed derailleur and shifter
  • Kevlar-belted black balloon tires for a smooth ride
  • Built-in front and rear lights for safety and convenience
  • Color choice of mineral blue, red or white

“At Pedego, we believe the rider is the most important part of any of our bikes, and the Pedego Boomerang Plus is sure to delight riders who are under 5’4″ tall,” said Don DiCostanzo, Pedego CEO and co-founder.

Pedego also offers 24-inch models of its most popular model, the Pedego Interceptor (from $3,295), and its original electric bike, the Pedego Comfort Cruiser (from $1,895).
