Hunters, farmers and anyone who loves the outdoors-the Velotric Nomad 2X is a beast of a bike. Full suspension with air shocks front and rear, a 750 watt motor with 105Nm of torque, four inch wide fat tires, camo paint job, towing capacity of 1000 lbs. Sounds more like a truck than a bike. A…

The Velotric Breeze 1 is a smart choice for someone looking for an E-Bike with a focus on light weight, comfort, and ease of use. At 48 lbs., the Breeze 1 is about 10 lbs. lighter than most of the competition in the same price range. That makes a huge difference lifting it onto a…

Looking for an E-Bike that will fold to fit into an RV, small apartment, or to commute to school or work? The Fold 1 Plus might be the bike you are looking for. This folding E-Bike checks off a lot of boxes. It folds down to a tiny 37.8” x 19.7” x 33.5” package in…

We have something new here at the Bicycleman, Velotric E-assist, NON-recumbent bikes!

The idea of the new Smart…

When they came out with complete electric bikes it made perfect sense to bring one in to try and see how customers would respond to it. Here’s my impressions after building it and taking my first ride. We have…
I’ve received some e-mails from people looking for recumbent trikes for kids so the family can ride together. I’ve also been asked what is available for riders under five feet tall. The choices have been few in the past, so I did some research and wanted to share with you what I found. In March…
I thought people out there in internet land might like to see how we ship a recumbent trike to you. We had special boxes made to ship the trikes via 18-wheeler. They are too big to ship fully assembled via UPS or FEDEX. Then we get your measurements and set the “boom” length to your…
