VELOTRIC

Pairing the bike to the app is extremely easy and seamless. Once paired you have access to all setting of your bike. Much easier changing from the app than from the actual bike. Everything can be adjusted with the tap of a button, not to mention it records the mileage of each ride and shows on a map where you’ve been which is pretty cool. Also has a section to provide software updates so the bike continues to work great; most bike brands require you to take it to a dealer to use a special tool so being able to do it on my own is cool.

I have two Velotric T1ST commuter/fitness ebikes. Both connect to the app easily and the settings function as they should. The problem is with the mapping functionality. At first it seems like it will track my ride, but it doesn’t. Not once. I’d rather mapping not be a function of the app if it’s not going to work. Since settings are easy to access via the bike display, the app isn’t very beneficial in my opinion.

After using this app and riding my Discover 2 for 10 months, here is what I have experienced so far: Auto light is worthless- lights turn on way after road is dark, then when there is a little ambient light they turn off again. My cruise control on 4 occasions decided to automatically try to accelerate past the speed I tried to lock on to. As for service , I asked them where the light sensor was located so I could add a neutral density cover to make it turn on earlier, they sent me a photo of a different model bike’s display. As for the cruise failure I was told to videotape the bike, so either I buy a clamp to hold my camera , or I ride with 1 hand steering . And the app says it locks the bike, they don’t tell you that applies to a different model.
