Some of the bigger toy makers, such as Polaris sell an electric version but their price was way out of reach. I then found a company out of Phoenix that sells a Chinese built Electric Fat Tire scooter. Check it out here. I purchased the scooter and had a great time with it, but when I brought it down to Rocky Point, I realized that it wasn't going to do what I had hoped. I ended up selling it.
My research happened across another e-bike company called Daymak.com. They are located in Toronto Canada and build a wide variety of e-bikes that look very cool. One such model is called the Beast. There is a number of models to choose from, Look here to see them. Based on the specs, it would seem that the Beast Ultimate would suit our needs. I found a distributor in Salt Lake City called Rush Outdoor Gear who had the Beast Ultimate in stock, albeit the 2016 model. I worked with Justin there and he was easy to work with and answered all of my many questions.

I love how beefy the unit is. It's very stout. I also love the features that came with it, for instance it has a great headlight etc.
I made a few changes and upgrades that I will cover and I'm anxious to get it down to Rocky Point to see how it will handle the beach. More to come.
