Founded with a mission to offer electric bikes that are stylish, reliable, safe, and affordable, Velotric is a company made up of experts from the industry who aim to offer some more options in the eBike market. The leadership team is built around bright minds who come from leading names like Lime, Giant, and Specialized.

They aim for a sweet spot of an eBike that is easy to use and comfortable enough to ride so it can be enjoyed all day. The company’s flagship model is the Velotric Discover 1.

Some nice features they’ve included in the Discover 1 include a 500W (rated) brushless rear-hub motor with 65 Nm (Newton-meters) of torque. They’ve created a sleek model with a fully integrated battery and controller, along with built-in front and rear lights for safety and convenience.

With a 3-level pedal assist and on-demand throttle boost, the Discover 1 is built for ease of riding. They didn’t neglect comfort, as they engineered the ride with a straight-back riding position. Placing the rider upright at an 87-degree angle on the Discover 1, rather than leaning heavily forward as many bikes require, helps to eliminate the risk of back pain and soreness some bikes can cause.

In their effort to provide a lot of value in the reasonably priced flagship model, they offer standard features that include a toolkit, front and rear fenders for riding in inclement weather conditions, and a bell for safety, all included at the base price, listed at $1,899 and available as low as $1,399 on special.
