Go-Ped Trail Ripper 46 Overviews

After years of being meticulously engineered at the Skunk Werks, and raved about as the C.I.D.L.I., Patmont Motor Werks, the innovators of present day motorized scooters and creators of the Go-Ped Brand, has just announced the release of their new pure off-road scooter, the Go-Ped Trail Ripper 46. No longer are paved surfaces important for Go-Ped use. This amazing stand-on scooter weighing only 46 pounds puts its 4 HP to the ground through a simple, unique and tunable patent pending suspension system. Dubbed C.I.D.L.I. for Cantilevered Independent Dynamic Linkless Indispension, this unique front and rear swing arm system is indispensable to this practical and fun light weight off-road machine. Previously other off-brand scooters have been introduced with traditional shocks. However, weight, complexity, reliability, short 1-3 travel and rider standing room problems have prevented these types of vehicles from reaching true off-road success. The Go-Ped Trail Ripper 46 now breaks this paradigm and follows traditional dirt bike suspension travel specifications of half the wheel diameter.The front and rear tires are 4 X 11 inch knobbies , and the C.I.D.L.I. suspension travel approaches an unprecedented 6 inches on each end. Other very interesting and important benefits have been realized by this simple and efficient design: Both swing arms are cantilevered 4130 Chromoly steel tubing and the wheel rims are made of ultra light Magnesium . This produces very low unsuspended weight, and allows the wheels to stay in better contact with uneven ground. The result is excellent trail riding and handling characteristics. This design also greatly simplifies any maintenance issues. To accommodate various rider skills, weights, and preferences, the suspension can be tuned from plush to firm through its elastomer compression adjusters . These adjusters raise and lower its natural damping characteristics as well.
