5% More Battery After 20km? VELLO Bike+ 1HR Ride

Written By VELLO bike on Thursday, Nov 09, 2017 | 10:22 AM

 
[LONG VERSION] Here’s the full look at the highlights from our 1-hour test ride. We rode the VELLO Bike+ on a 20km round trip from our design studio to the United Nations and back, starting with the battery at 49%. After an hour in self-charging mode, we finished with 54%—proof that the system helps maintain your charge and even adds a bit along the way. The Bike+ Automatic uses a Zehus All-In-One pedal-assist (pedelec) motor, meaning the motor only kicks in when you pedal. The result? A smooth, efficient ride! ----------- 🛒 SHOP VELLO E-BIKE: ⚙Single-Speed: https://vello.bike/en/products/vello-bike-plus ⚙⚙Multi-Gear: https://vello.bike/en/products/bike-gears ----------- 🚲 LET’S BE BIKE BUDDIES!
