Zero FXS ZF 6.5 in the driving report

A question of range

Zero, we’re going to Lodz! Okay, we’re going a little way in that direction. The Zero FXS ZF 6.5 does not solve the main problem of electric vehicles, the range.

Incredible but true: the brand has been around for ten years Zero represented on the two-wheeler market. The beginnings in Germany were more than bumpy. The first presentation of the Enduro, which was still assembled with many mountain bike components, ended before it even began. After the first attempt hop on a cross-country course, both bolts of the swing arm bearing broke on landing, only the brake line still ensured a connection between the front and rear wheels. In the absence of spare parts and bikes, the event was over. Today the matter is statute-barred and forgiven, but it also shows the difficulties the troops had to contend with at the time.
