Velotric Go1 Electric Bike Review
The Velotric Go1 is a lightweight step-through electric bike designed to safely carry kids. It has a 500W motor and can reach speeds up to 25 mph. Some key features include:
Carrying Accessories for Kids
The Go1 has several accessories to comfortably and safely carry kids:
- Rear rack with cushioned pad to seat a second rider
- Adjustable handlebars for the rear rider to hold onto
- Protective side screens to prevent legs getting caught in the rear wheel
- Foot pegs for the rear rider's feet
These features allow you to carry a child weighing up to 120 lbs on the back without needing to hold onto them.
Range and Hill Climbing Ability
In our test, we achieved a max range of 22.9 miles with 1,273 ft of elevation gain. The 500W motor can handle moderate hills but struggles on steep gradients over 10%.
Smooth and Comfortable Ride
The Go1 has a plush, oversized saddle, front suspension, and street tires for a smooth ride on bumpy terrain. The plastic fenders keep you dry and clean.
Secure and Convenient
A built-in 48V battery provides ample power. The dual kickstand keeps the bike sturdy when loaded. Bluetooth connectivity allows tracking the bike via a phone app if stolen.
Overall, the Velotric Go1 is ideal for family bike rides, commuting short distances, and running errands around town with kids in tow.
