Heybike vs Velotric?

ScottS · 10-22-2024, 12:06 PM

Hello,

I would like to buy a commuter/ cruiser e-bike with a budget around $1200. I have looked at the Heybike Cityrun and the Velotric Discover 1 Plus. Any suggestions on these bikes, customer service, or other options. Thanks.

They're both quite highly rated bikes in this category. Have you checked out BikeRide's reviews? You can see the Heybike here and the Velotric here.

The main differences between those two are that the Heybike has been out for a couple of years now and has a 20mph top speed, whereas Velotric only just launched the Discover 1 Plus, which can be unlocked for 28mph with the throttle.

I don't know anything about these bikes.
