Who Needs a License When You Have a Backyard?
Listen, I'm all about electric vehicles. They're zippy, planet-friendly, and oh-so-quiet. But I remain quite hesitant about these small electric motorcycles that are appearing everywhere. They're cute, sure, but honestly - are they any good for actual city commuting? Tiny range, big price tag…unless you have charging facilities in your closet-sized apartment, it's a non-starter.
Here's where I think these bikes actually shine: backyards, fields, dirt tracks – anywhere you can go totally wild without needing a license. And that, my friends, is exactly the kind of ridiculousness Peak Design and LAND are cooking up with their District Scrambler giveaway.
Apparently, Peak Design (you know, the folks behind those fancy camera bags) decided to partner with LAND, a company building electric motorcycles right here in the USA. Cue the patriotic music!
So, what do you win with this giveaway? A snazzy custom-edition District Scrambler, decked out in Peak Design gear. That includes their Everyday Case and Phone Mount (which I've personally tested and can confirm is basically indestructible).
LAND also souped up this Scrambler with a limited-edition paint job, super-sized battery, and their fancy Performance Package for upgraded suspension. Basically, this backyard beast is ready to rumble… or rather, quietly hum?
Now, I'll admit, I'm no stranger to giggling like a schoolgirl while testing electric machines. And judging by the looks of this thing, the Peak Design x LAND creation is gonna be pure, unadulterated fun. Top speed? A hilarious 25 mph (40 km/h), but trust me, it's going to feel like warp speed when you're tearing up some dirt.
Want a piece of the action? Of course, you do! No purchase necessary (because who has spare cash for this kind of silliness, anyway?) Just click some links, enter those details, and hope the motorcycle gods smile upon you. And no - we don’t get any kickback through some shady affiliate scheme.
So, what do you think, folks? Is this the perfect machine for unleashing your inner child, or just another overpriced electric toy? Let's be honest, the dimensions are comically small, the power won't set any speed records, and the battery life might leave something to be desired. Then there's the price… free if you're lucky, but eye-watering if you're not. Yet, the thought of hitting top speed (eventually!) with a goofy grin plastered across your face is undeniable.
