It’s National Bike to Work Day, and while you may not have a electric model this year to commute on, you can certainly take advantage of Velotric’s Bike Month Sale pricing and score yourself the means to do so through summer and into fall. There are obvious favorites like the Discover 1 Plus at $1,299 or its upgraded Discover 2 counterpart, but I wanted to shine a spotlight on a solid option for folks commuting in more urban areas, the T1 ST Plus e-bike that is at $1,399 shipped. It’s going for $1,649 at full price these days due to the tariffs that have been affecting the market in the past few months, with discounts only having brought down the cost to this rate since. While we did see the price go lower last year, there’s no telling how long it’ll be until we see those rates again, as well as if prices will continue going up later in the year with the market’s uncertainty. Still, you can pick up this lightweight model at $250 off the going rate, gaining some added smart security on top of electrifying your commute.
Velotric’s T1 ST Plus e-bike is an ideal model from this brand for urban commuters and riders who prefer active cycling, firstly for weighing in at just 39 pounds, making it a more manageable model up and down stairs, and secondly due to this being a purely PAS-focused ride without any throttle for pure electric cruising. It comes with a 350W motor (peaking at 600W) alongside a 36V 352.8Wh battery to reach top speeds of 28 MPH (unlocked over the standard 20 MPH limit). It comes with three different riding modes, each with five PAS levels and supported by a torque sensor, giving it up to 70 miles of range on a single charge.
It features a bonus walk mode for assistance whenever you may have to hop off the bike, namely to go up extremely steep angles, but a real highlight here is the Apple Find My inclusion, so you’ll always know where it is and can track it down. You’ll also be getting some other stock features, like the Shimano 8-speed derailleur, an integrated LED auto-headlight, double hydraulic disc brakes, puncture-resistant tires, an IPX6 waterproof rating, and a 3.5-inch LCD display with USB charging for your personal device.
If you’re commutes (and day-off adventures) tend to go off-road, you might be more interested in the brand’s Nomad 1 Plus All-Terrain e-bike for $1,499 shipped, coming down from $1,899. It comes with a larger 750W rear hub motor (peaking at 1,200W) with a 691Wh battery, hitting max speeds of 28 MPH for up to 55 miles when activating its five PAS levels – plus, there is a throttle on this model when you don’t want to pedal. The fat puncture-resistant tires ensure your fun won’t be stopped early once you go off-road, while the hydraulic suspension fork works to smooth out rougher paths and the hydraulic disc brakes provide solid stopping power – all with an IPX6 waterproof rating, among other features. You can also check out the brand’s latest release, the upgraded Nomad 2X Full Suspension Fat Tire e-bike that takes things to more customizable heights.
