eZip Trailz Electric Bicycle $398 at Walmart

[marty]

Are there any lower cost electric vehicles to transport a 130 pound human? Are there any better $300 kits that could be added to a $100 bike? Any stand up scooters for less then $400 that have better specifications then this bike?
Copy from Walmart web site:
Top speed: Up to 18 mph/29km/h (May be affected by rider weight and terrain)
Range: Up to 15 miles (May be affected by rider weight and terrain)

For the last two years Amazon has marked these eZips down to $225-$250 in the late fall.

This might be a better deal? It has a lith battery and I think a brushless gearless motor? http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200381460_200381460
