NEW ELECTRIC OFF ROAD MOTORCYCLE
07 October 2005 - GoBlade Ltd

This all new vehicle will be shown for the first time in the UK at the forthcoming motorcycle show at the NEC.

Electric Moto Europe are pleased to announce the appointment of their UK distributor.
GoBlade Ltd based in Cheshire, will be responsible for sales and marketing of Electric Moto’s revolutionary offroad motorcycle - BLADE.

BLADE is the worlds first production off-road motorcycle to be exclusively powered by an electric motor. Its power to weight ratio makes its performance and riding experience comparable to conventional Moto-X bikes but, most importantly - without any noise !

With a gross weight of only 80kg and motor power output of 19.2kw creating over 25hp, BLADE can achieve 0- 30mph in just over 4 seconds! The power characteristics can be programmed to suit the riders preference by connecting the on-board fully programmable controller to any PC running Blade’s motor control software.

High spec components such as Ohlins suspension and Pro-Taper bars are fitted as standard to the T6, illustrating its serious off-road application.

GoBlade’s Director Stuart Rutter says of the latest BLADE T6 model:

“Riding the BLADE is a unique experience. Its motor feels strong and responsive, but feels so light that it handles like a BMX bike. Aside from being great fun to ride, the
BLADE is a unique, hand-built, stylish product. We believe it will soon develop a strong and loyal following - not only from off-roaders but also from people who appreciate innovative design”

Nils Wiklund, Head of Electric Moto Europe confirmed the company’s philosophy :

“the T6 will revolutionise the way we think of off-road motorcycling in the future. With BLADE, we can ride or race wherever suitable space exists - not just on remote MX tracks or woodland trails but even in urban areas as well. Our philosophy is “No Sound Equals More Ground” and people who own a BLADE will not only have a great riding experience but will gain from more riding opportunities”

UK pricing is yet to be confirmed but is expected to be around £4,500 with additional options of the BLADE Fast Charger and Super-Moto wheels.
