With his experience in designing lightweight racing car components and enthusiasm for innova- tive engineering excellence, Richard believed that an e-bike should be an automotive joy to own and ride. Ergonomic, elegant, lightweight, ingenious and fun. A talking point wherever it goes. They say you can’t re-invent the wheel or improve the design of the bicycle. Gocycle did both. clean and Easy to live with Perfectly designed for modern living. The streamlined chassis and PitstopWheels® make cleaning Gocycle fast and easy. No exposed oily chain, gears, or sprockets. No mess. Gocycle can be stored or taken anywhere. Quick-detach PitstopWheels® 5 Lightweight and easy to handle Weighing only 16.5kg (36.4lbs), Gocycle has perfect fore-aft weight distribution with sports car like handling. The low centre of gravity makes the bike agile and responsive to ride, and easy to lift and manoeuvre around town and at home. Centring the mass of Gocycle makes it easy to handle. Front hub motor and battery contained within the chassis balances weight fore and aft. 6 designed to Fit you Gocycle provides contact points in exactly the same place as a large-wheel bike – but with more adjustment to fit more riders.

Compact GS and G3 models Fast folding GX model 10 Integrated battery Powerful Lithium ion battery packed seamlessly inside the Gocycle chassis provides up to 50 miles (80 km) range, depending on model and pedal input, on a 4-7 hour charge time. Up to 50 miles (80 km) range, depending on model and pedal input 13 powerful Electric motor A bespoke front-hub motor separates the powered drive from pedal drive. Lighter and providing better front/rear weight distribution, this system also provides powerful advantages when the lights go green. Conventional e-bikes use derailleur gears which can leave even experienced cyclists in the wrong gear at the lights. Not only does Gocycle’s predictive electronic gear shift ensure that you are never in the wrong gear, the front hub drive never can be. Only Gocycle makes sure you always make a clean getaway. In conventional bicycles, central or rear hub drives unbalance the bike, over-burden the transmission, and leave you in the wrong gear. In Gocycle, electric motor powers the front wheel, pedals power the rear. 14 Compact electric motor with 2x the power-to-weight ratio of conventional e-bike motor drives GocycleConnect app and bespoke Accessories Download for free the GocycleConnect app to personalise your ride!
