this is quite interesting.
gocycle is an electric bike that boasts quite a few features, including a real strange twin saddle/bars adjustment system, tool free removable wheels (easy to steal too by the looks of it) and when collapsed fits around in a little wheeley box. I reckon the ideas are pretty nifty, although you may as well HTFU and get a ‘proper’ bike haha
check out the annoyingly heavy website at gocycle.com
and here’s a video review on youtube:

oh god that video is awful. ‘if you’re tired, going up a steep hill, you don’t have to pedal at all!’ I doubt it mate
also, look how mashed the shifters are… what have you been doing with it?? eurgh and its ONLY got three gears – terrible
‘you can have a fine ride with very little exercise’, casually undermining one of the key reasons people choose to ride bikes, brilliant
and ‘look! no hands!’ wowee mister that is mighty impressive, but wait, you DO have one hand on the bars, but if you say so… amazing
‘I can see it taking off in London, which let’s face it, is pretty hilly’ good one
‘admittedly it’s very expensive, at £1,100 – not for the casual cycle rider’ yaaa
sorry this wasn’t supposed to be a video review but when I found it I realised that I had stumbled across blithering idiot gold, and felt i should share it
