Karbon Kinetics has announced the introduction of its new entry level Gocycle GS model.
The GS was launched on Kickstarter in October 2016 and after a year of development, KKL has completed the Kickstarter that enabled the company to develop the product and bring it into production successfully. Normal production is now underway and product is shipping from the factory to fulfil new orders.
Gocycle designer Richard Thorpe commented: “Following the success of our Kickstarter last year, we are delighted to now be able to offer an entry level version Gocycle to complement our existing premium G3 model. The GS model builds on the core Gocycle DNA such as lightweight, clean design and versatility but at a more accessible price point.”
The Gocycle GS model comes in a wide range of two tone colour combinations. It features torque sensing, direct mechanical shifting and a bespoke oversized handlebar design. It is compatible with all of Gocycle’s own designed integrated accessories such as mudguards, lights, front and rear panniers, and an integrated lock holder.
The GS is also compatible with the GocycleConnect App, which provides customized driving modes as well has health statistics such as calories burned, maximum and average pedal power.
Thorpe continued: “With its sporty feel and peppy performance, the GS makes commuting, running errands, or getting exercise fun and enjoyable. Setup if very easy with the 2018 GocycleConnect App – simple and easy to get riding straight out of the box. Of course all Gocycles are portable for easy transport or storing in tight living spaces.”
Gocycle GS is available for purchase now from Gocycle.com and through select resellers throughout US, Canada, UK, and EU. MSRP: £2,499.
