The Technology Behind the Evolution
What makes the Velec E3 a standout is its integration of cutting-edge tech that focuses on enhancing the rider experience:
- Powerful Rear Hub Motor: Offering 500W of smooth and responsive power, the Velec E3 delivers consistent torque ideal for both flat commutes and moderate hills. It provides pedal assist up to 32 km/h (20 mph), making city riding efficient and thrilling.
- Dual Battery Compatibility: With an integrated 500Wh Samsung lithium battery hidden within the downtube and an optional second battery on the rear rack, the E3 offers a flexible range of up to 120 km. Long rides? No problem.
- Colour Display & USB Charging: Keep all your ride data at a glance with a vibrant onboard colour display that monitors battery life, speed, distance, and support levels. Plus, charge your phone on the go with the integrated USB port.
- Torque Sensor for Natural Pedalling: Equipped with a torque sensor for precise and responsive pedal assist, the E3 ensures smooth transitions and a more natural riding feel, especially appreciated during stop-and-go city traffic.
A Velec Bike That Prioritizes Rider Comfort and Safety
From the moment you hop on the Velec E3, you’ll feel how much thought went into designing it for real-world riders. The upright step-thru frame geometry ensures accessibility for riders of all heights and abilities, while the front suspension absorbs city bumps and curbs with ease.
Key comfort and safety features include:
- Hydraulic Disc Brakes: Deliver reliable and robust stopping performance in any weather condition.
- Integrated LED Lighting: Stay visible day and night with built-in front and rear lights powered by the main battery.
- Puncture-Resistant Tires: Confidence on paved roads, bike lanes, or park paths.
- Rear Rack and Fenders: Ready for groceries, bags, and bad weather. This is your go-to commuter workhorse.
Why the Velec E3 Stands Apart
Compared to other commuter eBikes on the market, the Velec E3 offers a unique blend of performance, sleek styling, and Canadian-born quality control. Many eBikes claim to be “urban-friendly,” but few offer this level of polish and attention to ergonomic design. The hidden battery provides a clean, modern look. The optional dual-battery system eliminates range anxiety. And the torque-sensing pedal assist offers one of the most responsive rides in its class.
The Velec E3 isn’t just about getting from point A to point B. It’s about elevating your daily ride with innovation and dependability built into every part.
Proudly Canadian, Built to Lead
Velec is a proudly Canadian e-bike brand, known for its commitment to rider-focused design, high-quality parts, and rigorous testing in real Canadian weather conditions. The E3 is no exception. Built for people who ride in the real world — with wind, rain, hills, and cold — this Velec bike is built to thrive across seasons and settings.
When you choose the Velec E3 eBike, you’re not just buying a bike—you’re investing in a better commute, a greener footprint, and a wise mobility choice backed by Canadian expertise and Reckless Shipyards’ trusted service.
