Velotric Tempo Ebike
The Velotric Tempo is a lightweight city ebike that looks and rides like a classic bike, at 39 lbs with the battery.
A quiet 350W hub motor peaks at 650W with 45 Nm of torque, and a 36V 10.14Ah battery gives up to 60 miles on pedal assist, by Velotric’s estimate. The battery locks and comes out for charging.
Shimano hydraulic disc brakes, an 8-speed Shimano drivetrain and 700 x 42c Kenda gravel tires handle city streets and gentle hills. Velotric rates it for 330 lbs in total.
A torque and cadence sensor, concealed cabling, a 500 lumen headlight, turn signals and Pulse Mode, which sets pedal assist from your heart rate, come standard. UL 2849 certified, with a UL 2271 certified battery. Mid-Step and High-Step frames in two sizes fit riders from 4 ft 10 in to 6 ft 4 in.
