Probably the first thing that captivates you about the Discover is its slender build. Designed by Velotric’s in-house team (a collaboration between the former hardware team at Lime Micromobility and industry experts), the e-bike boasts of a lean frame, concealed electronics, and a step-through design (without a top tube) that makes getting on and off easy, especially if the rider is wearing a skirt or a dress. The main tube on the front integrates the Discover’s battery, which sits flush against the surface. Equipped with Tesla Grade 21700 Cells, the 692Wh Battery Certified by LG/Samsung, and can be detached from the bike’s frame as a security measure, or to charge the battery at home or at work.
The Discover comes in 5 colors across two broad variants – a US variant with a 500W motor, and an EU-compliant variant that sports a 250W motor. The only difference between the two rear-wheel-mounted motors is the amount of torque they provide (the US variant gives you 65Nm of torque versus the EU variant that rates at 40Nm). Both variants have a range of 80 miles with speeds going up to 20MPH, and offer 3 levels of intelligent pedal assist, brought about by 12 magnetic speed sensors that sense your pedaling speed and cadence to know when to give your ride an electric boost… a feature that makes the Discover especially handy while you’re trying to ride uphill or when you get exhausted from pedaling. Information about your speed, battery, ride status, and pedal-assist level get displayed on the Discover’s 3.5-inch backlit LCD dashboard, so you’re never in the dark about your ride stats. Speaking of in the dark, the Discover sports an integrated 12V headlight and 6V taillight too, making the road ahead of you visible, as well as allowing riders/drivers behind you to spot you from a distance.
The Velotric Discover makes for an ideal city-commute bike. For people who are looking to transition to electric two-wheelers, the Discover makes a pretty compelling case with its tech-specs and its urban-friendly gender-friendly design. The e-bike comes with its own rear-rack that lets you place up to 25kg worth of load on it, and even an optional front rack that mounts right above the front wheel, for things like groceries, purses, backpacks, etc. Touted as ‘Simple, Comfortable, and Reliable’, the e-bike sports an ergonomic seat and an adjustable handlebar. Its 80-mile range is perfect for daily commutes within the city, and if you want to venture beyond the city’s limits, the suspension fork on the front does help smoothen the ride. The e-bike retails at $2099, although you can back its campaign and grab it at an earlybird discount for $1299. The Velotric Discover also ships with a 2-year warranty on the bike’s parts, i.e., motor, battery, frame.
