The Zero X is an all electric dirt bike sans emissions and noise.  With a top speed of 60 mph and the ability to go 0-30 in under 2 seconds, this is no wimpy bike.  It is driven by  a permanent magnet electric motor that is powered by a special high powered Lithium Ion battery.  The battery along with it’s power grid ensure up to 2 hours of riding without any performance lag.  Once it’s spent it only takes 2 hours to recharge plugged into a standard home outlet.  These batteries contain no cobalt, nickel, lead or mercury, and are 100% recyclable and rated landfill safe, which is nice.
