Velotric Discover 1 Plus Ebike

The Velotric Discover 1 Plus is a comfortable and capable commuter e-bike built for everyday riders who want solid performance, safety, and range at a reasonable price. Powered by a 500 W (900 W peak) motor delivering 65 Nm of torque, it handles city streets and moderate inclines with ease. Its 691 Wh UL-certified battery offers up to 65 miles of range with pedal assist and 58 miles on throttle alone—real-world tests confirm impressive range even in higher assist modes. Comfort is a key focus, with an 80 mm suspension fork, wide 26×2.5″ tires, adjustable stem, and ergonomic frame geometry. Hydraulic disc brakes, full fenders, integrated lights, and a 3.5″ backlit LCD display round out its commuter-friendly features. Weighing ~60 lb and rated to carry up to 440 lb, it suits a wide range of riders. While its acceleration is smooth rather than punchy, and minor QC issues like spoke tension may require a tune-up, the Discover 1 Plus delivers excellent value, comfort, and safety for everyday urban riding.
