Michigan DNR Utilizes QuietKat's All-Terrain Electric Mountain Bikes On Patrol

Eagle, CO – Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR) announced today that QuietKat electric fat-tire bikes are currently being used by conservation officers for citing and ticketing wildlife violations throughout Northern Michigan.

DNR Conservation Officer Adam Leclerc out of Alpena, MI has been using a 1000-watt QuietKat on his patrols throughout the fall hunting season and has reported to his superiors that the bike has performed very well in the field for covering large areas of woods quickly and quietly.

 

“One case was reported of illegal baiting of deer behind locked gates, and Officer Leclerc utilized the QuietKat to sneak up on the violator and ticket the individual,” said DNR Lt. Jim Gorno. “Overall, the bike has been a great enforcement tool for our division.”

With advances in technology, electric bikes meet a need for patrolling areas that are hard to access due to their portable design and extended battery range. The QuietKat electric bike delivers high power and torque while allowing silent travel into areas without alerting violators in the immediate vicinity.

The 1000-watt QuietKat electric mountain bike that the DNR utilizes provides portable, stealthy, and powerful transportation in the field or on the road.

The QuietKat incorporates a silent, sealed, and commanding mid-drive motor system to navigate most landscapes. The bike also utilizes a high-powered and long-lasting lithium battery that supplies clean and consistent power for 20-25 miles per charge.

The QuietKat eBike has five levels of assisted pedal power with full throttle capabilities, seven gears, and disc brakes. A digital display provides information on battery levels, speed, distance traveled, and power control.

“We are very pleased that our QuietKat electric bikes have received high remarks from a state agency like the Michigan DNR,” said Jake Roach, President of QuietKat, Inc. “Our company is comprised of a group of avid outdoorsman, and it is a great feeling knowing that our vehicles are playing a role in the efforts to protect our natural resources.”

“It has been a pleasure working closely with the Michigan DNR and it is great to see the department utilizing advanced electric technologies,” said Paul Adam, owner of a Michigan QuietKat dealer. “We look forward to a long-lasting partnership and expanding the QuietKat vehicles into additional departments in the near future.”
