The collector came first.

FELO USA began with David Meunier’s classics — the largest Cub EZ90 collection anyone has found — and became America’s first home for their electric successors.

01The collector

One man.
All the classics.

David Meunier — the polo patron of Aiken — spent years gathering the little machines the world forgot to keep making. By his own count: one hundred and forty of them, the Honda Cub EZ90 at the centre. When FELO built their electric successors, he didn’t wait for an importer. He went first.

02The marque

Who FELO is.

FELO builds electric motorcycles and scooters in China. The company was founded in 2016 by a professional team with a background in motorcycle racing, and the range now runs from a folding machine that fits in a car boot to a 10 kW flagship with a two-speed gearbox.

FELO USA is where that range meets the United States. We field dealership inquiries, help owners who already have a machine, and give people a straight answer about how to get one — which today is a more complicated question than it should be, and we would rather say so than pretend otherwise.

Four machines,
four different problems.

04The teardown

Forty-nine kilograms,
accounted for.

Keep scrolling. An illustrated teardown of the M1, annotated with FELO’s published figures — and with the places the drawing and the specification disagree.

Component index

12 assemblies.

What this is

A generated illustration, not a photographed disassembly. Nobody took a FELO M1 apart for this — the sequence was built from a single photograph of the FELO USA demonstrator, and the separated components are representative forms rather than measured parts.

Every figure below is either FELO’s published specification or something visible in that photograph, tagged accordingly. Where the drawing contradicts the specification, it is listed underneath — the specification is what is true.

Where the illustration differs from the specification

Stand
The illustration shows a side stand. The M1 uses a centre stand and no side stand — it is what lets the machine be lifted square by its four handles.
Wheels and tyres
The illustrated wheels read larger than eight inches, and the tyres are knobby. The M1 specifies 8-inch wheels on 3.00-8 front and 3.50-8 rear road tyres.
Motor
The M1's motor is inside the rear wheel. The illustration renders a separate finned housing mounted on the swingarm.
Rear brake
The M1's rear drum brake is not depicted.
Component forms
The battery, controller, frame and covers are representative shapes, not measured parts. Use them to understand layout, not dimensions.

Replacing this illustration with photographs of a real M1 teardown would remove every note above. If you have access to one, we would like to hear from you.

05Technology

What actually makes them different.

01

Two speeds, not one

The FW-06 runs a two-speed Automatic Torque System — low for response in traffic, high for efficiency once the road opens. FELO quotes 58 N·m at the motor and 336.4 N·m at the rear wheel through it. Almost nothing else this size has a gearbox at all.

336.4 N·m

at the rear wheel, FW-06

02

The bike is also the generator

The M1's 960 Wh pack lifts out and, through its adapter, becomes a mains outlet. FELO's own figures: nineteen laptop charges, seventy-three phone charges, nine hours of a 105 W television. It is why the M1 turns up at job sites and tailgates, not only on commutes.

960 Wh

removable pack, M1

03

Sealed, and warranted long

FW-06 packs are rated IP67 and the M1's is IPX7 — submersion-grade, not splash-grade. FELO backs the vehicle for five years and the battery for eight years or 80,000 km, whichever comes first.

Built by racers, since 2016

FELO was founded in 2016 by a professional team out of motorcycle racing, and the range is laid out the way racers would lay it out: a flagship built around a drivetrain, a lighter sibling on the same idea, and two machines that solve problems a car cannot.

Where to buy

The honest answer changes by model and by month. Ask us and you will get the current position rather than a stock reply.

Ask about buying

Sell us your classic

The other side of the ledger: we buy the small gas classics these machines descend from — Cub EZ90s most of all. Barn finds and non-runners welcome.

FELO USA is your home to all things FELO related here in the States. From dealership inquiries to customer support and where to purchase various FELO models, such as the very popular FW-03, to the FW-06, M1 and CR1.

FELO USA — group description

The group has been running since December 2025 out of Aiken, South Carolina. It is private — the admins approve members — and it is still the fastest way to reach us. This site exists to give the same answers a permanent address.
