[Oeva-list] Free E-bike: Q-Electric "Expresso"

[aaron at bavariati.org]

I'm interested.  As an EV fanboy and motorcyclist, I've always wanted to
play with an e-scooter.
I'd also be glad to help someone else get it off your patio - I have a
pickup and ramp.

I've heard that http://www.mr-scooterboost.com has faster ESCs.

Regards,
  Aaron
