    Folding Electric Bikes
    Jetson Haze Electric Bike
    0-gallery-image
    Haze
    Shop
    You can buy the Haze at Costco. But don’t expect to get the same pleasure you’d get from the jumbo-sized pallet of Cheezit snack bags. Range is so-so, which could become a problem if the battery dies mid-ride. The Haze is difficult to pedal without electric power over any distance. And although it folds into a relatively compact package for storage and stowage, it weighs almost 50 pounds.
