@@MissGoElectricRideReviews Actually, the Velotric site was out of stock, but my local bike shop has the exact bike I want coming in tomorrow. I won’t get the $60 off, but they will put it together and do a six month checkup on it. I like to support my local stores, if possible, or we won’t have any!
If you were to compare the fold 1 to the discover 1?? I’d like to be able to pull around a bike trailer in the city. Will the folding ability really be that much easier to bring with a car if I already have a bike rack??
Driving with a bike on a rack presents a number of disadvantages solved by folding eBikes. We've covered those in our eBike buying guide. I hope you'll check it out. -Producer Tim th-cam.com/video/CbHr-orenP0/w-d-xo.html
I bought 2 of the Velotric Packers during their 2023 Black Friday sale for $1,500 each. Awesome bikes but a bit large and unwieldy when you want to load them up and take them somewhere. If these had been available, I certainly would have considered them.
Our Packer1 review emphasized the enormity as well. We generally recommend the GO1 for utility, but these will be a good solution for many riders. Thanks for watching and commenting. -Producer Tim Http://deals.missgoelectric.com
Nice review! The only downer for me with this and other e-bikes and scooters is the "Thumb Throttle". As a human being with opposable thumbs you loose over 50% of your griping power if your thumb is not under your palm when you are gripping something round. Also your thumb will wear out/cramp up/get tired a whole lot faster than your wrist will with a twist type throttle. If I were out today shopping for a new bike I'd more than likely pass on this one just because of the throttle set-up.
We prefer thumb throttle because twist throttles are often the source of unintended throttle accidents. Thumb throttle with cruise control is our ideal setup because it addresses your reason for preferring the twist throttle. There are good arguments for both methods and it is a part which can be swapped at low cost. -Producer Tim
If you need it to fold, this is the choice. If not, the Go1 is excellent. Our review of the Go1 is available at deals.missgoelectric.com We hope you'll use our coupon and discount code when you buy a Velotric. Save some cash! -Producer Tim
Blue is out of Stock. Won't be back until the end of July according to the Rep from Veloctric that I spoke to at a demo event this past weekend. Mentioned to me that the July Lot has sold out with no dates after that. Tampa Bay area here.
The seat heigh adjustment is incredible and sufficiently high. Miss GoElectric is about 6ft tall with a 36" inseam. That reference point is important when evaluating the frame. This video contains many angles of her riding the bike so that you can decide if it might be right for your body type. Thank you for watching and commenting. -Producer Tim
When leaning, riders learn to be attentive to the pedal position. Watching great mountain bikers, one can see how that skill becomes fluid and almost effortless. -Producer Tim
As a kid, 60 or so years ago, we learned to have the pedal in the up position on those turns. Kind of a no brainer and I'm not even sure we had to even consciously learn, it was just intuitive or maybe common sense?
We have never done a paid review. We have reviewed about 80 so far. Each one contains criticisms which manufacturers would probably not allow. No bike maker has any creative insurance upon our productions. -Producer Tim

The president of the United States announced massive new tariffs which affect imported eBikes. That is why prices have gone up.

One more thing Does that bike have cruise control?
As far as we know it does not have cruise control.

Can you roll this bike when it's folded? Trying to find out if you would have to carry it into cafés and such.
It will not easily roll when folded. -Producer Tim

Not exactly: the tariff exception for ebikes from China was allowed to expire. Try to be accurate and not political.
