The surging cost of gasoline and a desire for a greener commute are turning more people to electric bikes as an unconventional form of transportation. They function like a typical two-wheeler but with a battery-powered assist, and bike dealers, riders and experts say they are flying off the racks. Official sales figures are hard to pin down, but the Gluskin-Townley Group estimates 10,000 electric bikes were sold in the U.S in 2007, up from 6,000 in 2006. (source: edition.cnn.com)
