Less than ten seconds! This is the time it takes for the user to fold the new Gocycle GX. Unveiled a few days ago, the new electric bike from the British brand will be the fastest to open or store in the range.

Like all models, the new GX is a figment of the imagination of Richard Thorpe, former McLaren and founder of Gocycle, whose first model, the G1, dates from 2009. Based on a magnesium alloy frame, the Gocycle GX promises to be just as light. as a carbon fiber model weighing just over 16 kg.

Powered by a 250-watt electric motor coupled with a battery discreetly embedded in the lower tube of the frame, the GX promises up to 65 kilometers of range on a single charge. On the bike side, the GX uses a Shimano XNUMX-speed hub derailleur.

The British manufacturer's third model, the Gocycle GX, will ship in spring. It is already available for pre-order, on the manufacturer's website it is announced from 3199 euros. In the Gocycle line, it sits between the GS and the G3 at 2799 and 3999 euros respectively.
