Gocycle’s new ‘fast-folding’ GX model will make its Dutch debut at E-bike Xperience in Utrecht from 1st to 3rd March.
It will be the first time Gocycle has attended the show and its team of experts will be on hand to showcase the new GX, while offering test rides of the GS and G3 models. The new model was revealed at the start of February and is capable of being folded and stowed in under ten seconds, the brand has claimed.
Richard Thorpe, Gocycle designer, said: “2019 is an incredibly exciting year as we can showcase a full Gocycle range for the first time. We truly believe that there is a Gocycle for everyone! There is no electric bike out there that offers the riding dynamics, comfort and eye-catching looks of the Gocycle.
“The fast-folding GX is a great addition to the Gocycle family. It exudes the Gocycle DNA of lightweight, stylish, no compromises design in a package that has been carefully tailored with urban commuters in mind. Now is the time to leave your car behind and get on an electric bike!”
Owners can specify their GX in one of three bespoke Gocycle colour options: electric blue, matt black or white with a black Cleandrive. It features torque sensing, direct mechanical shifting and an integrated LED battery fuel gauge housed within Gocycle’s unique oversized handlebar design that allows users to monitor battery charge level while on the move.
The battery is fully-integrated in the GX’s frame for ease of travel and can be quickly removed for charging or maintenance if required.
The newest model in the Gocycle range is compatible with Gocycle’s key own designed accessories for the commuter such as mudguards, lights, and front pannier. It is also compatible with the Gocycle Connect App, which provides customised driving modes as well as health statistics such as calories burned and maximum and average pedal power.
