For starters, the Evo 2x Powerboard is built with all top of the line, high quality parts, which make it a very light and responsive gas scooter. The high tensile steel frame is well made, and is complemented by a CNC aluminum deck. The 11” pneumatic knobby tires sure grip the dirt and move you forward fast and easy. The handlebars are motocross style, making this a dream to steer around obstacles, as turning is super responsive.
The whopping 50cc, 2-stroke gas engine puts out a massive 2 horsepower, and got me up to a top speed of 35 mph without breaking a sweat. The unique Puzey designed 2-speed belt drive transmission shifts smoothly, so you waste no time getting up to top speed. The chain offers the “One-Touch Tensioning” system, which allows you to tighten a loose drive chain with one simple and easy flick of the wrist, without even having to align the rear wheel. Today I was fortunate enough to test the Evo 2x Big 50cc Powerboard from Puzey Motor Corp. It's a new gas sipping scooter that gets 85 mpg and claims to leave all others behind in its dust. Did it live up to Puzey's boastful claim? I am happy to report that it did, and even exceeded my own expectations. I think Puzey has a real winner on their hands with the Evo 2x.

As I was riding around in a vacant lot near my house, I was able to get pretty close to the scooter's rated 20 mile range, but I think I could have reached and even exceeded it had I not spent so much time doing donuts in the dirt as well as scooting around small bushes.
The Evo 2x comes in at a total net weight of just 53 lbs., and can take a rider weighing up to 265 lbs. The conveniently located pull starter makes it easy to get the engine started.
