The Silent Speedster is a fast and sporty looking scooter that can take you across town in the same amount of time it would take a typical gas powered vehicle, yet it does travels without making noise or carbon pollution. For only a few pennies worth of electricity, you can zip across town using roads, bike paths, and off-road trails, often making the trip in less time than it would take in a gas powered vehicle since you will never have to tolerate gridlock or bumper to bumper traffic jams. 

Because this scooter looks much like a typical bicycle, and includes all of the standard safety equipment, so you will be able to live happily on the public roadways and bike trails without raising any of the same red flags that those loud pocket bikes and smog spewing gas scooters certainly would. We are constantly reminded about how gas powered vehicles are destroying the environment, so here is your chance to make a difference, and leave the gas guzzler parked at home whenever you can.

The Silent Speedster is a perfect way to commute long distances without making any pollution, noise or environmental impacts. You probably do not need a license or insurance to ride a small electric bicycle like this in many parts of the world, and in communities where there are no existing electric bicycle laws you should be able to blend right in with typical bicycle traffic. By adding a solar charger to your system, you could have a maintenance free form of transportation that will cost you just pennies to run, and you can ride proud knowing that you built it yourself.

Every single step of the build is detailed using high resolution photos, and you will be given plenty of opportunity to modify the Silent Speedster to suit the type of hub motor and battery pack you plan to install, tailoring the type of acceleration, top speed and distance you need. It's time to leave the car at home!
