I'm not quite so sure that I agree with the "Veloteq is Quality" statement. Since it came off warranty on February 13 I've experienced two major faults. The first is the erratic tail light. The second is the failure of the onboard charging port. The Veloteq dealer is undergoing a move and temporarily unable to fix these problems. I'm not happy about the defects or the lack of service.
On the other hand, my Veloteq is otherwise a great bike that I go everywhere in Toronto with each day. Since I got the spare battery all range limitations are gone. The spare battery sits right on the footplate. Very convenient and I am hardly aware that it is there while I am biking. I just broke 3,000 km on the odometer.
