We took the Outset for a demo ride and explored the pros and cons of the new ASI controller. Other e-highlights include Land Moto with custom artwork, Portland-based Rev Rides displaying their full (and diverse) e-moto, e-scooter, and e-bike lineup, and an in-depth look at Vvolt e-bikes.?Grab a beverage of your choice and watch Tyson’s tour of the One Moto Show

Swiss scooter maker VMAX brought a number of models to the US market last year, with the VX2 Pro being their most popular. After spending some time extended riding time it's easy to see why; it's intuitive to use, built well, reasonably portable, and backed by a solid warranty. The US market variant is also quite speedy, boasting a 28% incline climbing capability with a top speed of 24mph (39kph). We put it through the wringer including a full range test with steep hills and high winds...?check out our video review of the VMAX VX2 Pro to see the results

An electric motorcycle designed to go anywhere, the?2X2 Ultra Bike?features huge balloon tires, a built-in gas generator (for recharging the electric battery), and a huge 48V/1.6kWh battery that can operate in a temperature range between -4 to 140 degrees F(-20 to 60 degrees C).

Ultraviolette launched F77 Mach 2 motorcycle for $3,600. The successor to the original F77 has an improved 3-level traction control, regenerative braking, and a unique Delta Watch that alerts the rider if anyone is encroaching on them and their bike, presumably to deter bikejacking.

It seems like each week, another bike brand launches a new e-MTB bike. This time, the Taiwanese bike giant?Merida is announcing two new eMTBs, the enduro eOne-Sixty and the offroad all-rounder eOne-Forty, including a rear rack, lights, and fenders.

Specialized listened to its customers who yearned for the Creo 2 carbon electric gravel bike but found the price to be a barrier. The?Specialized Creo 2 Alloy?was announced this week and it shares many of the same specs as its more expensive carbon sibling, but the E5 aluminum model is only $4,000.
