Motor, Battery & Range Differences
The Discover 1 has a 500W Class 2 (900W peak) motor and is powered by a 14.4Ah battery. You get upto 58 miles using Throttle and upto 65miles using pedal assist on one charge. The Ride1Up 700 however has a 750W hub motor and 15Ah battery with a promised range of 30-50 miles. The range varies depending on rider weight, terrain etc.
Discover 1 VS Ride1Up 700 Pricing
The 700 outperforms the Discover in many areas including motor size, pedal assist modes (9 vs 5), gear speeds, and size. But the Velotric Discover 1 is cheaper at $1249 compared to the 700’s $1495 price tag and you can also use my coupon – REF60701 to get 60$ off the price. So if you’re on a tight budget and don’t mind the small downgrade then the Discover 1 is the way to go.
