ON THE FLY

With a 450-watt DC motor and a set of “lowrider” foot pegs, SCHWINN'S FLY FS ELECTRIC SCOOTER might not be the most glamorous (or, with a top speed of 15 mph, the fastest) way to get from point A to point B. But we guarantee that once you settle into the saddle, prop your feet up on the pegs, and whir off into the sunset, you’ll hardly care. The Fly FS makes trips to the corner store feel like they did when you were a kid, wobbling down the block on your father’s old Schwinn Varsity. Just remember: You don’t have to pedal this Schwinn. And bring a dime — penny candy costs a little more these days. $399. (800) 377-4532, www.currietech.com
