Quad bikes are a necessity at many rural areas including farms and Lynch Motors have recently collaborated with Eco-Charger to produce efficient, eco-friendly electric quad bikes.
While standard quad bikes are noisy, vibrate heavily when ridden and have a requirement to refuel constantly, every 20 miles or so, Lynch Motors have developed a quiet, versatile and fossil fuel friendly motor which has produced amazing results for Eco Charge Quads in Devon.
With extremely low noise emissions and its ability to travel across almost any terrain, these amazing electric quad bikes are easy to drive, so much so that even children will enjoy driving these nippy machines! And charging the quad bikes couldn't be easier- the quad bikes are charged from solar or wind power on a farm and recharge themselves when they travel downhill, as in this example.
No need for fuel, just plug the quad bikes in and they are ready for use.
British designed and built, these fantastic electric quad bikes vastly reduce the running costs of any business. In this example, the farm used to get through over £400 worth of fuel in a single day, now they just plug in their quad bike and they have no more fuel costs.
Fred Chugg, founder of Eco-charger explains why they chose to develop an electric quad with The Lynch Motor Company in more detail.
'Working with quad bikes for over 10 years, I thought something must be possible. I believe that the way forwards is electric because of the nature of the machines but we didn't want to just make a quad bike which ran green, but make one which was built green too.
The Lynch Motor Company were the perfect choice for this project as they understood that how we power our lives is of great importance. With this in mind, the team at The Lynch Motor Company helped to develop a quad bike which is a lot cheaper to service and maintain and is very reliable.
The motor itself can peak at almost 30 horse power, meaning it is a very power dence unit which also runs at 90-95% efficiency. Batteries are odyssey batteries, chargeable at an un-limitable rate within 3hr 30 minutes from flat. The result is a very high end result and we are delighted with the product.'
