Is the Discover 1 Plus good for commuting?

Yes. It has integrated lights, fenders, a rear rack and hydraulic disc brakes, which cover most daily commuting needs. The upright position keeps you visible and comfortable in traffic.

How does it compare with the standard Discover 1?

The Plus adds a torque sensor for smoother, more natural pedal assist and upgraded components. It keeps the same step-through comfort and commuter features.

What is the range on a charge?

Velotric rates the battery for roughly 60 miles of assisted range, depending on assist level, rider weight and terrain. Heavier use of the throttle and high assist cut that figure.

Does it have a throttle?

Yes. It offers pedal assist plus a thumb throttle, so you can ride without pedaling when needed.

What comes in the box?

The bike ships with its battery, charger, front and rear lights, fenders and rear rack. Assembly of the front wheel, handlebar and pedals is required.

Is it good for hills?

The 500 W motor and torque sensor handle moderate hills well in higher assist levels. Steep, long climbs will work the motor and drain the battery faster.
