GoCycle G4i+: 375 Wh Is 374.4
GoCycle’s support sheet, updated October 2024, prints 36 volts and 10.4 amp-hours, and about 375 watt-hours. Thirty-six times 10.4 is 374.4. The Eco claim is 80 kilometers, which the sheet also writes as 50 miles. Eighty divided by 1.609 is 49.7 miles, not 50. Fifty miles on 375 watt-hours is 7.5 watt-hours a mile. The US motor is 500 watts, a front hub. The EU motor is 250. The UK store is £5,499 including VAT, and sold out. Electrek’s November list says $6,999. Do not turn pounds into dollars.

The short answer
The GoCycle G4i+ pack is 36 volts and 10.4 amp-hours. Thirty-six times 10.4 is 374.4 watt-hours. The sheet says about 375. Eco range is 80 kilometers, which is 49.7 miles, and the sheet also writes 50. The US motor is 500 watts. The EU motor is 250. Electrek lists $6,999. The UK store is £5,499. Do not convert them.
GoCycle’s support specification, updated October 2024, says the pack is 36 volts and 10.4 amp-hours, “approx 375 watt-hours.” Thirty-six times 10.4 is 374.4. The approximation is 0.6 watt-hours high. Eco range is up to 80 kilometers, which the sheet also writes as 50 miles. Eighty divided by 1.609 is 49.7 miles, not 50. If you use the printed 50 and the printed 375, the rate is 7.5 watt-hours a mile. Three hundred seventy-four point four divided by 49.7 is 7.5 as well, to one decimal. The range page is why an Eco claim is not a commute. The watt-hour page is the 0.6.
US and EU are different motors and different speed caps. The prices are different currencies.
| Line | United States | Europe |
|---|---|---|
| Motor | 500 W continuous, front hub | 250 W |
| Assist speed | 20 mph, called Class 1 and 2 | 25 km/h, which is 15.5 mph |
| Price | $6,999 on Electrek’s 8 November 2026 list | £5,499 inc VAT, UK store, sold out |
| Pack | 36 V × 10.4 Ah = 374.4 Wh | Same sheet. “Approx 375” |
3.5 hours is not 2.6
A 4-amp charger and a 10.4-amp-hour pack are 2.6 hours if the current never dropped. The sheet says 3.5.
The charger is 4 amps at 36 volts. Ten point four divided by 4 is 2.6 hours, and only if the current stayed at 4 amps the whole time. The sheet says 3.5 hours. The gap is the taper a lithium charge actually uses, or a clock GoCycle did not explain. The charge page is why those are not the same promise. The motor is the G4drive, torque sensing, a front hub. The hub page is why a front hub does not use the gears. Five hundred watts continuous is under 750. Two hundred fifty, the EU figure, is the EPAC watt. They are not one motor with two names.
Class 1 and 2 is a US sentence
The US speed line says Class 1 and Class 2, at 20 mph. Class 1 is pedal assist to 20 and no throttle. Class 2 adds a throttle that also stops at 20. The sheet says torque sensing and does not, in the lines this desk used, print a throttle. Calling it both classes without a throttle sentence is a label, not a test. The class chart is the test. The EU line is an EPAC at 25 km/h. Twenty-five divided by 1.609 is 15.5 mph. Weight is 16.9 kilograms, printed as 37.2 pounds. Sixteen point nine times 2.205 is 37.3. The tenth is rounding. Maximum rider weight is 100 kilograms, printed as 220 pounds. One hundred times 2.205 is 220.5. The frame is carbon in the middle, the fork is a carbon single-sided fork, and the wheels are the carbon PitstopWheel. The UK gloss-black G4i+ is £5,499 including VAT and sold out on a 2024 store page. Electrek’s November 2026 list says $6,999. A pound is not a dollar. Do not convert one into the other and call it the price. This desk did not ride it.
Questions people ask
How big is the GoCycle G4i+ battery?+
The October 2024 support sheet says 36 volts and 10.4 amp-hours, about 375 watt-hours. Thirty-six times 10.4 is 374.4. The approximation is 0.6 watt-hours high.
How far does the G4i+ go?+
Eco is up to 80 kilometers, which the sheet also writes as 50 miles. Eighty divided by 1.609 is 49.7 miles, not 50. Fifty miles on 375 watt-hours is 7.5 watt-hours a mile. That is an Eco claim, not a commute.
Is the GoCycle G4i+ 250 watts or 500?+
The US motor line is 500 watts continuous, a front hub. The EU line is 250 watts, and the EU speed is 25 km/h, which is 15.5 mph. They are two markets, not one motor.
How much is the GoCycle G4i+?+
Electrek’s November 2026 list says $6,999. The UK gloss-black store page is £5,499 including VAT and sold out. A pound is not a dollar. Do not convert one into the other and call it the price.

Understanding Volts, Amps, and Watt-Hours
Voltage is pressure. Amps are flow. Watt-hours are the tank. The hangtag that only says 750W is selling you one of those three.

E-Bike Range: How Far Can You Actually Ride?
A brochure mile is not a loop. On the Lectric XP4’s 500 watt-hour pack, the claim is 50 miles and Outdoor Gear Lab’s throttle loop was 19.1. Five hundred divided by 19.1 is about 26.2 watt-hours a mile. Do not average that with an Eco ride.

What Is a Class 1, 2, and 3 E-Bike?
Class 1 is pedal-assist to 20. Class 2 adds a throttle to 20. Class 3 is pedal-assist to 28. A Tuttio is none of these. The sticker is not the trail.
