Gocycle

Gocycle is an electric bicycle manufactured by Karbon Kinetics Limited, a company founded in 2002 by Richard Thorpe, who set out to create the world's best urban electric bike. Thorpe is an industrial designer who once worked at the racing car company McLaren. The Gocycle has interchangeable quick release wheels, a fully enclosed chain, gearing and cabling, a moulded magnesium frame and wheels and a flat pack storage and transport system, in which the bicycle folds up and can be carried in a case. The electric motor is powered by a rechargeable lithium ion battery.
In 2009, after an extensive development process, the business launched the ground-breaking lightweight Gocycle G1 to international acclaim. The G1 capitalised on Richard’s expertise from a 25-year career working in the motorsports and light electric vehicle industry, becoming the most recent injection-moulded magnesium alloy bicycle after the Kirk Precision in 1992. It set the foundations which have enabled Gocycle to continually push boundaries with each of its three new models.
The Gocycle G2 entered the market in 2012 becoming the first production electric bike to have Bluetooth connectivity. It was followed by the Gocycle G3 in 2016, which debuted an automotive inspired Daytime Running Light (DRL) – another industry first – and the all-rounder Gocycle GS in 2017. At the start of 2019 the business debuted its new fast-folding Gocycle GX model which is capable of being folded and stowed in under 10 seconds. The fast-folding Gocycle GXi followed later in 2019, promising to set a new standard for rider-focused technology in the rapidly expanding portable e-bike segment.
2021 saw the introduction of the new Generation Four Gocycle range. The brand declared that the new G4, G4i and G4i+ models would set a new standard for lightweight design, innovation and performance in the portable urban e-bike segment.
